Hi,

I am encountering a similar crash whenever I click "System Settings" -- "Monitor and Display". My system version is Kubuntu Feisty with 2.6.20-15-generic.

It seems that this happens after I installed the ATI binary xorg driver from Adept. Could you please tell me how to fix this? Thanks.

I have attached the trace from KCrash.
