10.04 Install issue

[ggmce]

I bought a Geforce GT 610 Video Card to try and avoid the issues I've been running into, now I get "Failed to setup X" on startup, I'm poking in the dark, but I did this so far;

dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
apt-get -y install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core --force-yes
rm /etc/X11/xorg.con*
reboot

Still the same result, if anyone has an idea please chime in...

Just as a running log in hopes this may help someone along the way, I re-installed the entire system (10.04) using the NVidia card but I could not get sound out of the HDMI so I went back and tried the HDMI connector on the mobo which also is not giving me a good UI as Video files do not play correctly and when they do show there is no way to stop them, fast forward, etc...

Other issues, Insteon is slow to set up and I cannot get the 7970 Phone orbiter to show up...

Kind of stuck....

are you able to disable your motherboard graphics adapter completely? If yes, do you, and see if removing xorg* and re-running avwizard helps.

I did disable the onboard video, but it did not seem to help, no audio, and the playback on videos was not working correctly, I was trying to build a low-power and quiet Hybrid/Core, but I may have chosen my hardware unwisely...

Further update; returned the Nvidia GT 610 card as I could not get sound out of HDMI, did a re-install (10.04) off the DVD, but the graphics are still not working correctly.

I believe the issue is with the "Radeon HD 7000-series graphics (DX11) integrated with the APU" which is part of my mobo, no matter what I try I cannot get the system graphics correct so this must be the issue. I have the "fglrx* drivers installed on my system, but maybe the HD 7000 is not supported. Just wanted to keep this up to date in case someone else has this hardware.

I've searched on adding the correct driver, and I tried what is illustrated on this page;

but no dice, I'll keep hunting and report back if I meet with success

Further update,

I got to work on the system again, so I wiped everything off and started with a clean install. After the initial setup (not running any commands) I chose Alpha Blending (the Test worked) and got through Sara. At that point I could see the flickr pictures and the pointer when I moved the mouse, but could not see the menus (only a momentary flash if I clicked the mouse)..

Then I did as l3mce instructed;

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get -y remove --purge fglrx* --force-yes
apt-get -y install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri --force-yes
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
apt-get -y install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core --force-yes
rm /etc/X11/xorg.con*
reboot

From then on, I could not get any graphics to work (not even Static Images; all tests just show a grey background)

If anyone has any suggestions, please chime in....

Is there anyone else with a similar setup that has their system running well? I'm happy with the Hybrid/Core build sunce it is low power and quiet, but if I can't get things working I may need to scrap this and go with something else...
