I tried this fix: How to fix "The system is running in low-graphics mode" error? And could not uninstall the driver. I tried all the ways including this one on AMD support

I am still stuck on this mode and cannot get rid of it.

How can I get out of low graphics mode and properly install the driver?

The procedures at How do I remove the proprietary ATI drivers? work with both the ATI and AMD drivers, and will help you get out of this mess.

The basics:

in a terminal, type the following commands:

sudo apt-get purge fglrx*
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
sudo reboot

  • That worked thanks, now the ubuntu tells me it doesn't use the graphic card.. What should i do? – Naor Hadar Oct 02 '14 at 04:50
  • I've had good success using the oibaf drivers - these are advanced xorg drivers, but not as advances as the xorg-edgers, so they remain stable. Use them both on an HP and a Dell Laptop. They are located at https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers – Charles Green Oct 02 '14 at 12:54
