I've made the mistake of installing the ATI proprietary driver by command line.

Steps i took:

Downloaded linux drivers

Opened the terminal

sh amd..driver.run

Followed the steps

Rebooted

This has caused my screen to not even load after a fresh install of 11.10 Is there a way to remove of disable these proprietary drivers by command line?

Boot into recovery mode

Remount read/write

Enter root shell

Go to the location where you downloaded the installer then: ./ati* --uninstall

Reboot:)

But, you can also get the drivers working by following the steps above, then follow steps 1 to 3 again and replace step 4 with: ./ati* --install.

Then type: aticonfig --initial

Then reboot.

This is how I got the latest drivers from ati working.
