    Re: fglrx Driver Not Detecting Hardware

    It *DOES* appear to want to upgrade xorg to the newest release on my 12.04.1 which is why I have put a hold on letting it upgrade. When I first got it working I think I recall reading that it will...

    G'day,

    Thanks for that. Still definitely having the issue.

    Hi varunendra,

    using 8169 on 12.04.2, it would take a long time to initiate the ethernet connection after boot, it would then start dropping out and was only at 10Mb/s.

    G'day,

    I'm not impartial to going back to 12.04/12.04.1. It will be a pain to manage updates but I'll live. I can't afford new hardware, just time. EDIT: Or even moving to 12.10 if thats an...
