[Bug 642518] Re: [MASTER] package fglrx 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: Kernel fix for CVE-2010-3081 breaks fglrx

 

Hi, All!  I read through many of the posts here, but I'm not sure if my
issue is unique or not...  Yesterday morning I was prompted to upgrade
to most recent FGLRX driver, then reboot. After reboot audio devices
were missing, both motherboard (primary) and HDMI audio (not used).
After second reboot to troubleshoot my situation I found the the
graphics performance was degraded to slideshow levels, and audio still
does not function.

It would appear that since my audio and graphics were working fine with
the previous driver, I should not have 'upgraded' at all. I see from
what has been posted that it just seems to be an issue of scripting the
ATi Catalyst install in such a manner to prevent a possible exploit
taking place also overlooked that the distribution of the driver might
need to check more than one place for resources.

I'm just wondering though if anyone else had issues with audio, and if
so, whether those issues were resolved by the latest fix in the Ubuntu
repositories as noted above.  Thanks!

My System:
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
ASUS 3650 HD Silent 512 MB AGP Graphics Card
(02:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RV635 PRO AGP [Radeon HD 3650] [1002:9596])
Athlon/Sempron 2.0 GHz
2.5 GiB RAM
Abit NF7-S2 nForce 2 Motherboard
