After GDM loads, the lovely Ubuntu brown appears briefly with small central box filled with a micro green 'mattrix-like' fill before going to a snowwhite GDM login screen. On the login screen, the matrix blob is still present and slight variation in white is present where the login box is. Typing blindly, no characters appear on screen, I can enter the desktop. The splash screen shows the green matrix over that part that is used for the splach graphic. Within I am presented two grey bars top and bottom, no icons and no text and that central matirx blob. Once the background graphic appears it is represented by the green matrix filling the space between the bars. I can see shape of the update notification appear, again without text or icons. After screen blanks, screensaver, the background behind the bars is black. Also vnc to the desktops is just black, I had vino enabled from breezy.
This is an improvement over time Flight 6 just gave a black screen after GDM load. I have read just about every ATI related thing on the net. I have tried combinations of modules and changed the device type amongst the three main types, ati, radeon, and fglrx. All give the same results. vesa does not work at all.
I will send attachments later xorg log and xorg config.
