I have tested this on the final Ubuntu and Kubuntu releases. Neither boot properly and just end up at a blank and unresponsive screen exactly as in the RC. I have not found a vga= setting that works. I tried running apport-collect 569372, but like Nick above, could not because of the blank and

It is interesting that UMS (nomodeset) is not working for either of you, given that UMS for these cards was committed upstream on the 1st February 2010, well before xserver-xorg-video-ati 6.13.0 was released on 5th April 2010 (and before KMS was added to a 2.6.34 kernel RC). I also found a patch

This seems to be the same bug as bug #560306, although I would be reluctant to set this bug as a duplicate of that one at this late stage as it may result in a lack of attention to the (additional) information in this bug. I have mentioned this bug there. ** Summary changed: - 10.4 RC Live CD -

Hey Bryce The original reporter may have worked around the issue and then forgotten about it. I was just hoping to help fix this. Is my input of no use...? I'll save myself any further effort on this if it isn't. Thanks Nick -- 10.4 RC Live CD - Blank screen with Radeon 5870

Hi, new here, not sure if this has been fixed or not but it seems that I have this same problem. Whenever I try to boot from the live cd, it loads (at least), and shows all the menus and stuff but there is no text and it looks like an old nintendo game that backfires (you know, colors off, random
