[Bug 132716] Re: ATI Driver Gets Black Screen on Radeon 7500 Mobile (Regression)
I'm experiencing problems with dual-head setup and xrandr 1.2 on a recent upgrade to Ubuntu 7.10 on my Dell Latitude D810 laptop with docking station. Previously this worked with the ati driver and it still functions when I change over to the fglrx driver (which rules out bad hardware). I have a striped down configuration xorg.conf file (see below) with two identical Dell FP1905 monitors connected through a docking station, one via VGA-0 and the other via DVI-0. On startup the DVI-0 monitor functions as expected while the VGA-0 monitor displays 1: Analog Input Cannot Display This Video Mode. The working monitor shifts from DVI-0 to VGA-0 when I issue the following command: xrandr --output DVI-0 --crtc 0 --output VGA-0 --crtc 1 At this point, my desktop is properly displayed on VGA-0 while DVI-0 displays 2: Digital Input Cannot Display This Video Mode. Is it possible that this bug is related to crtc 0 on the ATI x600 (M24)? The log of this session is attached.

My adapter is: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500] My problem description is the following: After Grub finishes I see Starting... string on the black screen, and the font of the string changes. But right after that the screen becomes completely black and I get a large underscore cursor blinking on the top left corner of the screen. This black screen with cursor stays there for about 3 minutes (Feisty boots much faster on the same machine, I don't understand), and right after that (i.e. after X loads) I can see the famous Ubuntu login screen with brown background. Thereafter, I don't have any problems. This has been the case since fresh install. Since my problem occurs before X loads and after that everything is fine, I wasn't too hopeful that new Xserver driver would solve my problem. But I've installed the latest driver from Tormod's page: xserver-xorg-video-ati - 1:6.7.195+git20071026-0ubuntu0tv Since it did not solve my problem, I've also added the following lines to xorg.conf later on: Option LVDSBiosNativeModefalse Option DRI off Nothing changed. Since I don't have any problem after X loads, my situation is not so bad.

Having something like that on a laptop with ATI 345M graphics with 128 megs of shared ram, 690 megs of ram, and an Intel Celeron M 1.80 GHz processor. When I start up the laptop, everything starts out fine, and then when the Ubuntu splash screen (that's what I call the screen with the Ubuntu logo and that progress bar) is supposed to come up, i just get this screen that changes colors from black to white and other light colors randomly. It starts up about a fifth of the time, and if i hold down the power button to turn it off, it just gets stuck on the BIOS screen. Then I have to restart the computer about ten times to get back to the damaged splashed screen. An Ubuntu memory scan says there are no errors in ram. What do I need to do to what?

Hello, I have the same problem... blank screen after upgrade to gutsy. I seem to have a newer ati card, though (ATI Technologies Inc M52 [Mobility Radeon X1300] ). Adding the LVDSBios... option didn't help. Using the package linked by Timo didn't help. Every time, the log for x server shows a crash, in the fglrx driver. What can I do? :) Brownout, how did you downgrade? Where can I find a deb with an older driver? And anyway, are the old driver compatible to the version of X used in Gutsy?

I have a Radeon 7000 (01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] (prog-if 00 [VGA])) and after upgrading from Feisty tu Gutsy I got a blank screen.

Yea, I think the complete xorg freeze-up issues are different as I can still switch to a console and CTRL+ALT+BKSP just fine to kill the server (and it looks like the others with Mobility 7500s can too).

Alex is not very verbose about which upstream fix, but I guess it is the newer LVDS handling and mode fixes. They came after 6.7.193 which is in Gutsy, but they will be included in 6.7.194. Hopefully also the latter will be accepted in Gutsy since it has many bug fixes (and nothing else).

Does not fix it for me either. I do have some more info though. After Xorg starts, I can login (blindly) and then run the xrandr commands from the console.
