It's exactly the same situation with the native 64bit Flash plugin. And it's not just Flash either; it has occurred with smplayer a few times, although in this case it's not reproducible always like Flash.

i just pointet out that the 64bit one do have less bugs.

yes maybe a driver bug but be sure Flash is crap if something goes wrong with flash most of the time its OK because just Flash...

you can not set the bugfree unix/linux standart for flash.. you know its adobe.. they can't ;-)

just drop the 32bit flash the nativ 64bit one do have less bugs.

I think I'm experiencing the same issue. I filed a bug report at http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1913 but haven't received a reply yet. Before reporting this as a bug, I asked on the Arch forums if anyone was able to reproduce this issue, but yours is the only similar report.

Have you by any chance found an explanation of what's wrong and/or maybe a solution?

i now creat an accound on this page "http://ati.cchtml.com/" to confirm this bug for you.

only know catalyst version "10.5 ,10,6, pre10,5" for this page there is no difference for 10.8 or 10.9

i solved like anomalydetected said

downgrade to kernel 2.6.32-23 and works ati 10.9

thanks!

There is definitely a problem with the new 2.6.32-x kernel and fglrx. Not sure yet what the final resolution will be.

Radeon HD 4870


any suggestion? help?

(sorry for my very very bad english)

thanks

I had the same problem and was going nuts. Found it to be an issue with linux kernel 2.6.32-24 (which made it's way to the Ubuntu repositories a few days ago - you probably just got it while running updates). I rolled back to 2.6.32-23 and now I can install any version of Catalyst again, including the new 10.9 (fglrx 8.771).

Just install the following from Synaptic:
linux-headers-2.6.32-23
linux-headers-2.6.32-23-generic
linux-image-2.6.32-23-generic

It should update grub for you automatically. Next time you reboot, you should presented an option for which kernel you'd like to use. Select the -23 version and install Catalyst again. It shoudld work now.

You can either leave -24 there for now or remove it. I would also install StartupManager from synaptic to help you manage grub if you are going to keep several images to boot to.

Hope that helps! Frustrated the hell outta me for a bit.

10.8 can handle the standart 32 bit flash in 10.04 kubuntu and the 10.9 goes down if you switch from fullscreen to windows mode only strg+alt+f1 and after that strg+alt+f7 brings the screen back.
