Title:
ATI video driver circles round login screen
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
As suggested by SteVe Cook (yorvyk) in this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-
sis/+bug/1034812 ("SiS video driver circles round login screen"), I
have opened a new bug.
As stated in that bug: "Login screen just flicks on screen then screen
goes blank before login screen flickers back on and of for ever more."
The same behavior is happening with an integrated ATI Rage Pro (AGP 2X
and 4M memory) graphic card in a Dell OptiPlex GX1 using Lubuntu 12.10
Quantal Quetzal. After upgrading from 12.04, it doesn't enter in the
X system, and the system tries to change to the graphic mode
unsuccessfully in a loop indefinitely. Previous this upgrade the
system was working fine.
I don't attach the xorg.log because it wasn't present in the system
and this computer doesn't make use of xorg.conf. However I've attached
the dmesg and lspci. It is using the latest Lubuntu kernel.
I appreciate any help given in this subject and thank you for the time
and effort solving this issue.
Best regards,
-Andrey
