[Bug 1241104] Re: Can't install 13.10, might be propietary AMD driver

[Wietse Jorissen]

The removal of the xorg-edgers ppa was executed as advised. But it seems
to have been the final nail in the coffin for my already fragile
graphical env.  (which I have caused myself because I wanted to try
Steam and fiddled with propietary AMD/ATI drivers).

The good news was that it allowed me to install 13.10, the bad news was
that it was through root shell and ended with me reinstalling the video
driver.

But all is well, 13.10 is up and running and Unity works and the window
decorations are there.

Thanks!

Title:
  Can't install 13.10, might be propietary AMD driver

Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Can't install through the generic update dialog

  
  Using 13.04 64-bit

  I expected smooth sailing for installing 13.10, but now get a rather
  uninformative error:

  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

   This can be caused by:
   * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
   * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
   * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

  Indien niets van dit alles van toepassing is, meld deze fout dan
  a.u.b. met behulp van de terminalopdracht 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-
