[Bug 644568] Re: package fglrx 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 10

 

** Description changed:

  After a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04.1 and up-to-date system I opened
  "Hardware Drivers" to install ATI proprietary drivers. After
  "activation" it started to download the driver but failed with message :
- "SystemError: installArchives() failed"
+ "SystemError: installArchives() failed". I also noticed in synaptic that
+ fglrx* packages were installed. But when I rebooted there was just a
+ purple screen even though the sound of login screen was loud and clear
