I had to write it down, because it was during an install. I'm on the livecd now.
It says:


Unmet Dependencies
xserver-xorg-video-all: Depends on xserver-xorg-video-ati but not installable
tasksel: aptitude failed (100)
'pkgsel' failed error code 1


Does anyone have any tips?


I need to use the alt cd for disk encryption. The normal install CD works fine.

I'm getting the same error:
xserver-xorg-video-all: Depends on xserver-xorg-video-ati but not installable

Did you find any solution?

Thanks,

I found a solution. I am installing Unbuntu Studio and it turns out that the xserver-xorg-video-ati file was on the install media, but not named correctly. If I look in the /pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video-ati folder I saw two files named
xserver-xorg-video-ati_6.14.99~git20110811.g93fc084-0ubuntu1_.deb

Every other folders had files with a "_i386" at the end of them. So, I renamed the 2 files in this folder to
xserver-xorg-video-ati_6.14.99~git20110811.g93fc084-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
and
xserver-xorg-video-radeon_6.14.99~git20110811.g93fc084-0ubuntu1_i386.deb

After those 2 renames, everything installed without issue. I am using a USB flash stick for installation, which allowed me to simply rename them.
