Upgrading Ubuntu to the latest beta version proved to be a bad idea. The X server wouldn’t load after the upgrade and its becasue my video card (for some reason) gives it trouble. I tried manually editing the xorg.conf file but nothing worked.
And another odd thing, the distribution only works in the safe graphics mode for the 32-bit version. The 64-bit AMD ISO doesn’t work in either normal or safe graphics mode. The built-in drivers for my ATI X850 card are pretty slow. Upgrading them helps but after I do, the GL screensavers don’t work.
Anyone out there with an X850 from ATI have similar problems with Ubuntu?
