Fatal Server Error: no screens found after installing fglrx

Fatal server error:
no screeen found

after i install fglrx by downloading via amd homepage i got above error on my ubuntu 11.10. apparently there are some miss-configurations after the installation process.

so as suggested by some sites, i uninstall fglrx by running

# cd /usr/share/ati
# sudo sh ./fglrx-uninstall.sh

and once again i reboot my laptop expecting i can get my normal screen, but again
i get
Fatal server error:
no screeen found

if u experience the same problem you may do this :
1. press ctrl+alt+f1 this will bring you to terminal
2. i decide to reinstall fglrx and get new configurations for my display so i run this command
[php]sudo apt-get –reinstall install fglrx[/php]
3. reboot, u should get your normal screen back 🙂
