@Christopher: will do.
I'm in the process of bisecting. The problem has been introduced somewhere
between v3.10-rc1 and v3.10-rc2. More precisely, it has been introduced between
v3.10-rc1 and commit fea0f9f. Looking at the logs, the latter is a likely
candidate:
---
Pull drm fixes from Dave Airlie:
"Just a few straggling fixes I hoovered up, and an intel fixes pull
from Daniel which fixes some regressions, and some mgag200 fixes from
Matrox."
---
I'm bisecting that branch now.

Title:
Installation, Live and Check disc do not start on Asus ZenBook Prime
UX31A
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in “linux” source package in Raring:
Confirmed
Status in “linux” source package in Saucy:

Bug description:
When I try to install Ubuntu 13.04 on a new Asus ZenBook Prime UX31A
from june 2013, grub will come up bit every option such as
Installation, Live and Check disc result in a blank screen. This is
possibly due to preinstalled Windows 8 and UEFI.
I did not approve/accept the Windows 8 installation and that should
not matter. I want to install only Ubuntu and *no* dual boot with the
preinstalled Windows 8. I want to erase the entire disc in firsts
steps of installation procedure.
Screenshot illustrating the problem are:

is locked in that state)

Debugging attempts from
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Boot_Debugging failed. Perhaps I
did something wrong. What are ways to write debug to the screen in my
case?
And, more importantly, how do I get it working because have the right
to install whatever I want?
Is the only way to get it installed to accept the Windows 8 license
and install Ubuntu from Windows (and in effect making it dual boot
which I don't want).
Ubuntu should fix this as it is the flagship of a major laptop
manufacturer (ASUS) for which Ubuntu is no longer installable.
