Public bug reported:

Hi guys i am not sure if this is the right place to file this bug here.
if not please forgive me.

i recently baught a hp dv6 3150sa 64bit win7 laptop and dual booted with
ubuntu 10.10 64 bit.installation was flawless and on my first reboot
after the installation a message poped up telling that there is a a
driver available for you computer. it read ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX
graphics card driver. I installed this driver and on reboot i chose
ubuntu10.10 again which took me to the command mode. i tried doing cold
boot a couple of time more and then realised i have lost the graphical
desktop.

To my skills re installation was the only option and i havent installed
this driver again.

i have got an inbuilt ATI mobility readon HD 5470 graphic
card(switchable with intel HD GMA)

regards
