[Bug 267185] Re: ati driver gives a white screen on xserver
** Description changed: - I just updated to Intrepid and was greeted with a completely white - screen when gdm was supposed to show. The computer is still responsive - and i can even log in even though i can't see anything, but the screen - remains white. I can switch to console and checked the Xorg.0.log - no - errors. I have an asus f8va-b1 with a Radeon Mobility HD 3650 video - card. the fglrx driver doesn't work and neither does the vesa. Let me - know what you need to get this fixed. Thanks. + I just updated to Intrepid and was greeted with a completely white screen when gdm was supposed to show.

[Bug 267185] Re: ati driver gives a white screen on xserver
I have the same problem with that configuration : ATI HD3650, intreprid ibex I tried all drivers that exist (catalyst 8.10, 8.11, 8.12) and always the same problem, when GDM should appers, the screen stay black. I noticed that after usplash, the screen turn off (at the moment of showing GDM). I switch to TTY1 console with crtl+alt+F1, login, and enter exit, then the screen turn on and I can see the GDM screen, log in and everything is working properly (X server, compiz fusion, ..) I have tried to change the xorg.conf with a lot of option in all section, but nothing solved my problem -- ati driver gives a white screen on xserver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267185 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 267185] Re: ati driver gives a white screen on xserver
Colin, given that it occurs with -vesa and -fglrx as well, it's sounding like not an -ati bug particularly, but without some deeper debug work it's uncertain what is failing. xserver maybe? -- ati driver gives a white screen on xserver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267185 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

Bryce, you declined this for Intrepid - I was just wondering why, as you didn't leave a comment? (I'm sure it's perfectly reasonable, but it suggests you've done some analysis of this bug.) -- ati driver gives a white screen on xserver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267185 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

Yeah i just tried again with the latest intrepid updates and still no luck. Same white screen.

After reenabling the ati driver, I cannot longer reproduce this problem on an up-to-date intrepid system (login does seem to be very slow compared to when using the vesa driver). Martin can you try again with all the latest updates? And if you still experience this problem, can you please attach your xorg.conf, Xorg.0.log and the output of lspci here?

I have tried Ubuntu 8.04 for 32 bit and AMD64, and every few days try the latest alpha or daily build of 8.10 for AMD64 and 32 bit...nothing has worked yet.

I understand that this machine has *both* integrated graphics with an ATI 3200 and another graphics system based on the ATI 3650 for higher performance, when desired. I do not know if the problem is with video drivers or support of some other elements, or a combination thereof. We were able to do an install using virtualbox on top of Windows Vista on this very same machine. It works, but that is not an ideal setup...if anything, I would prefer the opposite or no Windows at all. -- ati driver gives a white screen on xserver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267185 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

I'm having the same problem with ATI Radeon HD 3650 on ASUS F8Sp notebook, except I get a white screen with intermittent horizontal dark stripes. 64 bit Intrepid, Alpha 5. Driver identified as radeon. Ctrl- Alt-F1 lets me go to command line. Vesa 'safe mode' just crashes to command line without starting the gdm, but no white screen. Vesa seems to identify no valid resolution / frequency combos for this laptop screen. Hardy works just fine on this computer / configuration (fglrx or vesa). -- ati driver gives a white screen on xserver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267185 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
