George Inman, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

It will not boot. It boots until the music sounds, and the login screen is supposed to appear, then it just locks up. The strange part is that both the installed version and the USB ubuntu live version fail at the same point. I even tried two versions of Ubuntu live on USB. Windows 7 however works fine. I think something must have happened to the hardware That will not load ubuntu,but will load windows ANY IDEAS? About the only thing I did different on my last session was to install wine and then install Textpad in wine This problem gets stranger I tried ubuntu 11.4 and 10.04.2 on live USB they would not boot failing at the same spot Today I tried ubuntu 9.10 Surprisingly it booted live. The screen was not quite right(the toolbars at top and bottom were missing) So I powered down and booted again.This time the screen was ok. I pulled out the USB stick and booted into the installed ubuntu 10.04 This time it worked. I have no idea what Rel 9.10 did to fix it, as I did nothing but use the file browser while in Rel 9.10 Further into this problem I discovered today what causes the problem.I closed the computer screen While in a Ubuntu session. After raising the screen the screen was dimly lit. I shutdown ,and when I rebooted into ubuntu, the boot seized in the same way. I now think this is how the problem happened the first time. Hope this gives someone a clue on how to fix it.
