This bug also affects Dell Inspiron 15R laptops (Ubuntu Certified Hardware for 12.04) when updated to 13.04. The machine winds up at a text-only console, so the user experience is rather poor.
Latest Beta drivers from AMD + explicitly installing the qauntal libudev0 and xserver-xorg-video-intel brings the machine up correctly (as in http://askubuntu.com/questions/205112/how-do-i-get-amd-intel- hybrid-graphics-drivers-working/288355#288355). Would it be reasonable to declare a dependency on those explicit versions of the conflicting packages in the fglrx-installer package? Having people's laptops that have a very common hardware configuration (dual mode AMD/Intel graphics) turn console-only on upgrade seems a bit problematic. Alternately, running "amdconfig --px-igpu" if the condition is detected (lspci has both Intel and AMD VGA drivers and the newer xorg-server- intel and libudev0 packages are installed) might be a workaround, preferably with a user-visible warning of some type. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1174278 Title: REGRESSION: "failed to allocate video resources" with latest fglrx To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1174278/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
