[Bug 855943] Re: Installing then uninstalling FGLRX makes Oneiric's Unity unbootable

 

warning: forcing reinstallation of alternative /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/mesa/ld.so.conf because link group x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf is
broken

Can anyone please just tell me how to fix / reset this so I can install
libGL again!???

Bug description:
  I was attempting to test this bug:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/781384 by installing FGLRX via jockey-
  gtk. After I found that there were no fixes (still), I went back to
  jockey and uninstalled FGLRX. However, upon rebooting, I found that
  Unity would not load. Applications had their title bars, however and
  were able to be moved.

  I ran a terminal and ran "unity" and was received various "Compiz
  couldn't load plugin X : could not locate libgl.so.1" etc. I checked
  on a live USB of mine and this file doesn't exist in a standard
  install. The only way I could find to fix it was to reinstall the
  FGLRX driver to get things to work temporarily. (Which i did not want
  to do because of aforementioned bug).

  If you need any more information, I will be glad to pass it along.
  Running up-to-date 64bit Oneiric.
