Bug Description
Open office cannot be started after install of fglrx ATI driver
with Restricted devices manager.
Ubuntu installed:
Xubuntu Gutsy final 7.10 amd64, installed from alternate CD.
Hardware involved:
CPU: Amd AthlonX2 dual core
Motherboard: Amd 690G chipset (integrated Ati X1250 graphics)
If using fglrx driver, OOo splash screen appeares and then nothing starts.
If using vesa driver OOo starts and works.
Steps to reproduce:
Install Xubunu 7.10 amd64
Openoffice is working (vesa drivers by default, flickering)
Install fglrx ATI proprietary driver with "Restricted devices manager"
Openoffice apps does not start.
Wanted behavior:
Open office should work no matter what graphics driver is in use,
or fglrx ATI driver should not disable Open office.
