This is getting interesting :-) Yesterday there were updates to Xserver-core and the ATI/Radeon driver in the same batch that contained Plymouth 0.8.0~-14. To my surprise I can now start up without the dreaded 'nomodeset' option. This works fine, Plymouth and X all doing what they should first time around. So far, so good.
In order to find out what Plymouth would do when booting under 'nomodeset' (triaging another bug) I rebooted and tried that. Guess what..... the situation has reversed. Using 'nomodeset' now gives me a screen with vertical coloured bars and lines, and there it all ends. I guess I can't complain about my system finally booting without setting extra options, but it sort of bothers me that it now bugs the other way around. Still, I'm happily using my system at the moment. cheers Tom -- [Lucid] ATI KMS causes DRM error on X200M https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509273 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
