Public bug reported:
Dell Latitude D600 512MB
ATI Radeon 9000 32MB
Ubuntu 9.04 - GNOME
PROBLEM: Boots past Ubuntu splash screen (100% bar), flashes through 4
corrupt graphic screens, ending on one that displays something like the
Ubuntu splash screen (100% bar) in the upper half left and right
corners, something like the Ubuntu small icon logo repeated ~32 times
across the top like a bar, and the lower half of the screen multi
colored vertical line noise. [I believe the desktop is active, but
don't know how to navigate/confirm that]
STARTED: Used the main menu add/remove to add some KDE educational
packages and the ATI Radeon Catalyst Control Center.
SO FAR: Tried recovery mode xfix, fsck, dpkg. [I'm very
willing/comfortable using the root console and moderately familier with
linux. I need pointers on what logs to find or configs to edit. Is
there a VGA mode for the desktop so I can uninstall the Catalyst
package?]
BACKGROUND: Reformatted to Ubuntu 9.04 and the graphics were a bit
slower, but running without glitches. Both versions had a habit of the
mouse buttons locking up for periods of time. This version started
taking to beep two or three times during shutdown.
