Comment 3 for bug 565407

Hi, thanks for picking this up.
FYI: I had 9.10 running without any problems. Did the online upgrade to
10.04
This seems to be the only problem, haven't noted anything else. Which is
really great!
regards,
Rob

[Warning] Uninstall : inst_path_default or inst_path_override
 does not exist in /etc/ati. This suggests that the ATI driver

 To force uninstallation of the driver by guessing where the
 uninstallation files are located, set the FORCE_ATI_UNINSTALL
 environment variable and re-run /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh (this is
not recommended).
