I recently installed drivers for an ATI Radeon 9000 in Ubuntu 8.10...
I believe it was my first restart after that and i got an error and had to boot in low graphics mode. That set me in 1280X1024 when i got in, i went to res settings and dropped to 1024X768 and that scrambled the screen. Now i can't get anything past login screen, once i log in it changes resolution and scrambles screen. i have changed, deleted etc etc to xorg.conf and tried the dpkg reconfigure....
I have exactly the same problem as this post:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5619324
however I don't seem to have the same monitor settings file....
any advice would be VERY appreciated
I am desperate....
