[Bug 561723] [NEW] package fglrx (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 (ATI poprietary display driver won't install)

 

Public bug reported:

I recently updated to Lucid, and the ATI Catalyst Control Center driver
worked fine for me on Karmic. After updating, whenever I try to download
and install the fglrx package (via apt-get or synaptec or a direct link
from the AMD website) I recieve the error message in the summary. I've
checked the forums and someone posted a solution, but their way around
this issue didn't work for me. I get errors in terminal when I try to do
these fixes. No rush on this, but my friend a few doors down has the
same issue, and we're hoping that will be stable/fixed when the full
release of Lucid hits. You guys rock!
