[Bug 623544] Re: package fglrx-kernel-source 2:8.593-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: fglrx kernel module failed to build

 

The 8.593 driver you're using is the last one that works on R5xx-based
cards, such as your X1600.  However, that driver doesn't support any
Ubuntu version newer than Ubuntu 8.10.

On Ubuntu 10.04 your only choice for a graphics driver is the open-
source Radeon driver that ships with Ubuntu. That driver should give you
desktop effects. It may not work very will with games though.

I recommend you uninstall fglrx. Having fglrx installed breaks the
Radeon driver.

Hope this helps ...
