[Bug 253988] linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 is obsolete

[bugbot]

Thank you for reporting this issue about a driver from the
linux-restricted-modules package.  lrm-2.4.24 was shipped with Ubuntu
8.04 which reached end-of-life for desktop support on May 12th, 2011.

For that reason, this bug report is being closed at this time. I'm
marking it wontfix because what you describe is probably a valid issue,
but there are no plans to work on lrm 2.4.24 bugs further.

The issue may be resolved in a newer version.  If not, aside from filing
a new bug report, another angle may be to file it directly with the
driver vendor.


** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I'm using fglrx with compiz on x86_64. When I click near the right
  (about 2 inches or closer to the right) on the desktop (regular
  window's don't crash it) X crashes with the following backtrace and
  log from X.org.log. The problem is completely:
