[Bug 1139563] [NEW] No boot time display (blank screen) for ATI RS880M Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series in Ubuntu 12.10
Public bug reported: Unstable support for ATI RS880M Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series in Ubuntu 12.10. Issue 1# Harddisk encryption is enabled, when it boots there are no messages, it goes to blank screen. Encryption password prompt is not working (i.e. not even blind entry). Pressing Ctrl Alt F1 followed by Alt F7 brings about the graphical console display. Issue 2# GL drivers are not available. Very messy, as no acceleration whatsoever. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd ati boot fglrx graphics radeon ** Tags added: fglrx ** Tags added: amd ati boot graphics radeon -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1139563 Title: No boot time display (blank screen) for ATI RS880M Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series in Ubuntu 12.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1139563/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I think best option for me is to revert to LTS - is this going to be on old drivers for a while ?
