Thanks for the suggestions, but it looks like specifying EXA vs. not
specifying it makes no difference to my observations, nor do the AGPMode
settings.
As for bug 261977, was it fixed after alpha 6? I haven't retried the
safe video install since then. My current Intrepid build is off the
261977 was actually a problem in the xserver's logic for selecting the
driver for a card. Basically, there was a routine that looked up the
card's pci id to see what driver to use, and if it didn't find one -
meaning the driver didn't support the card, it left it blank. Later on,
there was some
Aha, I should have noticed this sooner - you've got an AGP system, and
your symptoms almost exactly match a known issue with -ati on AGP.
Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks#ATI AGP Mode Quirk
Please try this. In your xorg.conf, set the following:
Option AGPMode 1
Also try values
I got exactly the same problem (I think) with my ATI Radeon 3850 (not
fixed under final version), but my bug has been tagged as duplicate of
the nv bug...

I don't believe so. It seems that 261977 is a case of a specific nVidia
driver being chosen for a device it does not support. However, there is
a bit in there about the nv driver claiming a device, and preventing
vesa from subsequently doing so itself... that could be related if the
analogy to
Perhaps this is a case of bug 261977

In fact compiz is not even installed on my machine... I'm a KDE 3.5.9
user (KDE4 video quality was terrible, the subject of a different bug).
Hopefully this will change with Intrepid.
What driver is used during safe video mode install? I'm really not
that concerned about getting radeon to work
The failsafe mode uses the vesa driver.

In that case this isn't really an ati bug, is it? Although I'd be
delighted for that to finally work.
I filed this bug as kubuntu-meta thinking perhaps safe video
(failsafe?) was not choosing the vesa driver in Intrepid.

Thanks for testing all those things.
One other thing to test, is to leave dri and glx enabled, but disable
compiz (and easy way is to 'chmod -x /usr/bin/compiz') and see how that
looks.

This Xorg log was produced when I specified ati as the driver instead
of vesa in xorg.conf. The symptom (monitor power down with blinking
LED) is identical to when I attempt to install Intrepid in safe video
mode.
** Attachment added: Xorg.0.log.old
This Xorg log is the one produced when I use the vesa driver, i.e.,
when I use the xorg.conf I attached previously. In this one everything
is fine.

Based on other bug reports I went ahead and did some experiments. I can
tell you that:
1) disabling dri and glx allows me to see video, although the quality is poor
2) AGPMode appears to have no effect
3) ignore LVDS doesn't help either

Can you attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old from
after attempting to boot with the -ati driver specified in xorg.conf?
Also, please attach `lspci -vvnn`; the default lspci output doesn't
include al lthe pci id numbers we need.
Another thing to try is disabling compiz;
Thanks, Bryce. I will try to get this information for you on my current
Hardy environment. Just to be certain, though, I should clarify that
this is a problem with Intrepid install and I have no way of getting log
files from that (to my knowledge). Having to use the vesa driver under
Hardy
What changes did you have to make in hardy in xorg.conf to get it to
work? Also is it possible to run lspci from the command line on that
machine (e.g. using hardy) and attaching the output here? Thanks.

I changed my xorg.conf some time ago because I found that my particular
monitor doesn't work well with DDC and certain acceleration options make
my graphics card unhappy. It may have been as far back as Dapper but
definitely in Feisty it was like this. My installation procedure for
new releases
Last line above should read I have attached my lspci output. Here is
xorg.conf for your review. I don't think it's very interesting - the
important part is replacing the driver with vesa. I wish I could
remember why I needed to do this - a radeon driver bug was involved, I
think. Maybe it's

It might be useful to indicate what hardware (esp. motherboard and video
card and monitor) you are using, as well as things like the monitor
refresh rate and how you are plugged in (DVI/VGA)
