Public bug reported: I attempted to use the restricted ATI drivers (for my Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop with ATI Mobility Radeon X300). With the restricted driver running all the desktop effects stopped working. If I went in and tried to change the visual effects to any setting, it said "Not available."
With the restricted ATI driver off, desktop effects work (normal and extra), but seem to cause system lock-ups at times. The lock-ups do not seem to be related to any one program or event. With the free ATI driver I also only have a very limited selection of screen resolutions, but would rather use this free driver with all desktop effects off for now to have a stable system. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- ATI drivers cause problems with Mobility Radeon X300 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147950 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
