[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#735047: [fglrx-driver] use simlynks and uninstall vesa video driver

[Valerio Passini]

Package: fglrx-driver
Version: 1:14.1~beta1.3-1

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
hello,

I have had a lot of issues with hybrid graphics in the last two weeks because 
there are a lot of bugs all together.
The first issue is empy /usr/lib/fglrx/igpu, you can try to:
 
sudo update-alternatives --set glx /usr/lib/mesa-diverted

to see if this solves the empty igpu directory problem.
The other issue is that X.org (remember to remove xorg.conf file) loads the 
vesa driver instead of the intel GPU integrated graphic driver, so you don't 
have hardware acceleration.
You need to remove xserver-xorg-video-vesa package until they fix the thing.
Hope it helps

Valerio

Please attach the file: 
  /tmp/reportbug-ng-fglrx-driver-NnmDu0.txt 
to the mail. I'd do it myself if the output wasn't too long to handle.

  Thank you!
