Ive just put my ati card in my machine but im getting getting a message saying i know what this means and i know its down to xorg not configured why because it shows me 2 log files saying How do i get passed this and fix it without reinstalling Ubuntu? BTW all i have is command line interface. Yes i was a noob and didnt read ati's instructions. FYI i followed this doc http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide And its all work.
Check the bottom of that wiki page you linked. It has a troubleshooting section which tells you how to fix this. No screens means there is no reference to your monitor in xorg.conf, so try running this command from your CLI:- Code: sudo aticonfig --force --initial And enter your password when asked (Ubuntu uses the password for the first user account you created as the root password). This should re-create the missing xorg.conf section. See if it works by entering:- Code: startx Quick question. Are you actually using 6.06Dapper, or 6.10Edgy, because I think the Edgy install method is slightly different.
Its all fixed because i followed that faq. Im running 6.061 because i heard edgy has some horrid bugs in it (and the fact i couldn't find the edgy iso).
Oops, Didn't see the "Fixed" when I opened the thread. My bad. Edgy's running OK for me (It's all I have now).
