Public bug reported:


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 fglrx-amdcccle 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu3 Catalyst Control Center for the ATI graphics
ii fglrx-modaliases 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu3 Identifiers supported by the ATI graphics dr
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, filing a new bug as requested in bug 552782.
