[Bug 552782] Re: package fglrx (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: dpkg-divert: mismatch on package

 

I upgraded from 9.10 -> 10.04 a couple of days ago and since then fglrx has not worked, on 9.10 things were perfect.

Originally 8.721 was installed and since then the upgrade to
8.723.1-0ubuntu3 came out but I'm experiencing the same thing:

$ sudo /usr/lib/fglrx/bin/aticonfig
Unable to open /etc/ati/control, please reinstall the driver.
/usr/lib/fglrx/bin/aticonfig: No supported adapters detected

I have removed and reinstalled the fglrx package about 6 times as that
was suggested as a way to fix things in various bugs but that has not
helped.

I have confirmed that the packages are installed properly.

$ dpkg -l | grep -i fglrx
ii  fglrx                                      2:8.723.1-0ubuntu3                                   Video driver for the ATI graphics accelerato

ii  xorg-driver-fglrx                          2:8.723.1-0ubuntu3                                   Transitional package for xorg-driver-fglrx

$ dpkg --get-selections  | grep -i fglrx
fglrx						install
fglrx-amdcccle					install
fglrx-modaliases				install
xorg-driver-fglrx				install

However there is no directory created at /etc/ati after install and no
drivers placed within the xorg directory, /usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules/

$ ls /etc/ati
ls: cannot access /etc/ati: No such file or directory

$ ls /usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules
libglx.so  libglx.so.195.36.15  nvidia_drv.so

All help appreciated.
