[Bug 560056] [NEW] [RV770] Lucid beta 2 unbootable from LiveCD/LiveUSB
You have been subscribed to a public bug: I downloaded the beta 2 ISO from the servers and made a LiveCD for fresh install of 10.04. The boot process is carried out until near the end, the purple plymouth screen goes away and then all I get is flickering screen with lines running across it. I did a few things like "nomodeset" and "pci=nomsi" but nothing does. The later one sends the monitor into power saving mode and the only way out is a hard reboot. I tried to drop to the terminal when the screen starts to flicker and ran #dmesg | grep drm and there are error messages related to my graphics card. Seems like for some reason the GPU is being reset every few seconds. See the screen shot attached for the exact error messages.

Sennaista, you didn't mention, is this a regression from an earlier installation of lucid? Or from an earlier version of Ubuntu? I ask because the RV770 is a relatively new card and the support for it in -ati is fairly new. If it is indeed a regression, it would be helpful if you could identify the most recent version of -ati (and/or kernel version) that worked. -- [RV770] Lucid beta 2 unbootable from LiveCD/LiveUSB https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/560056 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 560056] Re: Lucid beta 2 unbootable from LiveCD/LiveUSB
I'm having a very similar problem to this too, and I also suspect it's probably something to do with the open source ATI drivers. When booting from the Live CD (and I've tried the 64-bit and 32-bit versions) I don't even get as far as the screen for installing/trying Ubuntu/Memtest/checking the CD for errors. All I get - which I suspect is probably at the point that I should be seeing that screen is a screen full of black and white horizontal stripes (about ten in total) with a corrupt cursor that appears as a 1-inch square of random-looking pixels. I suspect it may be the same problem that cause me to (reluctantly) abandon Ubuntu 9.4 and (equally reluctantly) return to Windows. However, I hoped that it would have been fixed by release 10, but alas it seems not. System: AMD Athlon64 X2 4000+, 4GB RAM with an ATI Radeon HD4800 PCI-E graphics card. I'd love to go back to Linux but I until the Live CD can deal with the graphics card I have, I'm stuck. I've checked the CD download (and as mentioned tried both 32 and 64 bit versions) and tried with a CRT, and LCD and both screens at the same time. I posted the above on the ubuntuforum.org Lucid testing thread and was referred to the same fix as in Sennaista's post above. But for me... it didn't work. When loading from the CD I initially get the Ubuntu logo, then the ten horizontal lines occupying the bottom one- third of the screen. After about a minute of CD access the screen refreshes and the lines take up the whole screen and the cursor appears. Pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 refreshed the screen and the lines took up the bottom third again. Two times out of three nothing further happened until I rebooted, and the other time the screen refreshed once more to the full-screen lines. -- Lucid beta 2 unbootable from LiveCD/LiveUSB https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/560056 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 560056] Re: Lucid beta 2 unbootable from LiveCD/LiveUSB
I think this is caused by the open source ATI drivers. This is how I managed to bypass the problem, if anyone else has the same issue: Get a liveCd/LiveUSB and boot normally without any options. Let plymouth do its work and once you get to the stage that the GPU is being reset every few seconds press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to drop to terminal and execute the following commands: #sudo stop gdm #sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf Type in the following set of commands then save and exit. # /etc/X11/xorg.conf Section Device Identifier Configured Video Device Driver fbdev EndSection Section Monitor Identifier Configured Monitor EndSection Section Screen Identifier Default Screen Monitor Configured Monitor Device Configured Video Device EndSection[ This would tell X to use framebuffer instead of the actual drivers for your graphics card. After saving the file all you need to do is to run #sudo start gdm And you will get the LiveCD desktop and you can install from there. After it is finished you can restart your computer and either use the same xorg.conf file or install the official ATI drivers and let them take over. Whatever you do though don't just use the open source drivers because you won't be able to boot and have to do all the above steps again. ** Package changed: linux (Ubuntu) = xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) -- Lucid beta 2 unbootable from LiveCD/LiveUSB https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/560056 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 560056] [NEW] Lucid beta 2 unbootable from LiveCD/LiveUSB
Public bug reported: I downloaded the beta 2 ISO from the servers and made a LiveCD for fresh install of 10.04. The boot process is carried out until near the end, the purple plymouth screen goes away and then all I get is flickering screen with lines running across it. I did a few things like nomodeset and pci=nomsi but nothing does. The later one sends the monitor into power saving mode and the only way out is a hard reboot. I tried to drop to the terminal when the screen starts to flicker and ran #dmesg | grep drm and there are error messages related to my graphics card. Seems like for some reason the GPU is being reset every few seconds. See the screen shot attached for the exact error messages.
