** Description changed: + The kernel has become fussy about EDID information from the monitor. + When using kernel mode setting (KMS) the kernel will refuse to setup a + monitor with invalid EDID (even if those which worked with previous + kernels). + + Radeon still has user mode setting, which seems to bypass the EDID + strictness. so to boot one can append the following to the grub kernel + line: + + radeon.modeset=0 + + == original description == + i install maverick with todays live cd. after install there was a lot of updates available (including xorg and kernel). after these updates i can't boot. i get a stuck at a blank screen after grub. i can't switch VT. same happens even with recovery mode. if i select the old kernel 2.6.34-5.14 at grub i can boot fine. i tried to use "ubuntu-bug linux" to report the issue, but i says "This is not a genuine Ubuntu package" i guess this is because i am booted with an old kernel. so please let me know what info you might need. i'll attach syslog, because that defiantly has some interesting messages. there is a failed boot starting at Jul 3 14:32:00 - --- + --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.23.
