and it did nothing which i figured it wouldnt as i'm not using aiglx.
Oh and just to recap. I cant even open catalyst control center which says the driver isn't installed (even though it is) whenever i run glxgears the system halts, and whenever i try to logout now the system halts. This problem has been reproduced 3 times on the same HW configuration and driver was installed each time using instructions from the wiki.

At least he can get fglrx showing in xorg :(
I think the problem may be in this section of your xorg.conf...
AFAIK, you can only have one overlay method on. You've got VideoOverlay and TexturedVideo on .. try turning Video Overlay off, since TexturedVideo is intended for the newer ATI cards :) Here is mine for reference - it's an X1300 Mobility...ignore all the stuff for dual-head.Code:Section "Device"
Identifier "ATI Technologies Inc ATI Default Card"
Driver "fglrx"
Busid "PCI:2:0:0"
Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps" "true"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "true"

Option "KernelModuleParm" "locked-userpages=0"

And I second the bit about going to http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubu...allation_Guide and following the troubleshooting info there.Code:Section "Device"
Identifier "ATI Graphics Adapter 0"

Option "VideoOverlay" "off "

Hope this helps!
lol my xorg.conf has changed 3 times since that post. and my posts above stated that was the exact guide i used each time. Thanks for the replies though.
now check this out!
I got hella p.o.ed and did exactly what i was told not to bother trying. installed hardy instead of gutsy

I'll have nexuiz installerated in a minute here.
Thanks everyone for your thoughts and for giving me the same link i was already using 5 times! lol j/k but thank you. Hopefully this helps someone.
EDIT: In hindsight i think this may have something to do with my buggy sk8n mobo. My ati card wont even display the bios splash correctly due to its nforce chipset. Iunno.
lol yeah, rank forum blindness on my part there :D Glad you got it sorted :)
