Bug Description
Binary package hint: fglrx-kernel-source
After installing and getting updates, tried to enable the proprietary ATI driver via the "Hardware Drivers" Utility. After rebooting xorg seems to start but the screen goes blank. I cannot switch to a console to check any drivers. The driver utility seems to only add Driver "fglrx" to the xorg.conf .
fglrx-kernel-source 1:8-02+
xorg-driver-fglrx 1:7.1.0-
