Title:
  Installing and then removing the proprietary radeon (fglrx) driver
  breaks unity

Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  My graphics card (radeon 6300) was working with the open source driver
  included in onieric, but I decieded to try the proprietary driver by
  enabling it in jockey. Unfortunalty it was slower and broke suspend so
  I used jockey to remove it again. After that unity wouldn't work
  anymore. I just got an empty desktop with the top panel and menu bar
  visible but nothing else. I tried purging the config files related to
  fglrx and reinstalling the open source driver but it didn't work. I
  had to switch to a tty and reinstall fglrx to get the desktop back.
