[Bug 635756] [NEW] X11 does not start with glx enabled (ATI Radeon HD 4670)

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

When i boot Ubuntu without an /etc/X11/xorg.conf the screen gets black before the GDM login screen. The graphics card doesn't provide any output and i am not able to switch to a console. I think the driver brings the card into a bad state so output is deactivated.
If i create a xorg.conf with a deactivated glx extension in can start normal and of course i don't have 3D acceleration. Is the fglrx driver not working yet? At least i was able to install it and i think this should not bring up this situation.
