I just solved a problem by installing the latest ATI Drivers from AMD's website. Problem is I think it crashes my system, like few times a day already ... How can I confirm its the cause and how can I fix it?
UPDATE
I am using
- ATI Radeon 5670
- Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop
- 2.6.38-11-generic
I reverted back to the driver from Jockey/Additional Drivers. So no crashes, I will probably use the ATI/AMD sites 1 again to see if it crashes, then post the log.
UPDATE
I just rebooted from a crash, this time, I am using Open Source drivers.
Last "few" lines of Xorg.0.log on pastie
Maybe its not a graphics or driver thing? Can it be something else? How can I troubleshoot?
UPDATE 2
It might also be Unity? I installed a "bare" Ubuntu 11.04 system via Alternate CD then install the packages. While using Ubuntu Classic, all seemed well. Then I switched to Unity, it appeared not to work with the defuault dirivers then things start going wrong ... also see below ... Whats with the super dark shadows and artifacts with the launcher?
