I haven't used Ubuntu in more than a year since my old-dual boot laptop graphic card died. I finally got an enclosure for the old HDD, set external USB drive in the boot sequence, and had no problem loading good old Jaunty 64bit. I then spent the rest of the day upgrading the distribution to 9.10 and then 10.04. All seemed fine until I enabled FGLRX and all I get was a blank screen at re-boot. Please remind me - how can I boot to terminal and disable FGLRX?

BTW, I have a Lenovo T500 with switchable ATI/Intel GPUs, and not sure if this would matter.
