Title:
Alternative video driver (fglrx) is not being saved as a selection
choice
Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Hello. I can't select and save the proprietary drivers in the
"Software and Updates" in the "Additional Drivers" section. It allows
me to select using a proprietary driver, but when I click "Apply
Changes," it jumps right back to the X Org X server option.
I've also tried "sudo apt-get install fglrx" and some variants thereof, but end up getting a response back such as :
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
