Public bug reported:

Hi

This Friday i updated me system on laptop and rebooted.
And system don't want to boot. I attached external keyboard to laptop and by boot saw kernel panic leds blinking.
But i don't get any messages on my screen(external screen to).

So i reinstalled my ubuntu 12.04(pure without updates to 12.04.*).
Next step was installing fglrx driver from amd website(amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13.1-legacy-linux-x86.x86_64). I choose install with package generation. After installing generated packages i whanted to install updates. Updater suggested to update my fglrx to version 13.3(or something similar). But i have Ati HD 5145(renamed HD4570). For this cards is only 13.1-legacy suitable! 13.3 is For Radeon HD 54** and higher(newer). To avoid wrong driver installation i fixed package version in synaptic.
