Thanks for the logs. So it seems the machine does not lock up completely once you load the module, since it kept logging for some minutes. However, it seems from Xorg.0.log that X was running when you loaded radeon. Did you stop gdm first? Otherwise X will start up, detect there is no radeon module, and do its own mode setting. Then when radeon is loaded, it will also want to do mode setting, and conflicts may arise.
You can also try a normal boot again, but with the "radeon.modeset=0" option. Then radeon will be loaded but not do mode setting. Then X will start, and use radeon for other things, but do its own mode setting. Also when using insmod, you can add the "modeset=0" option to the end of the line. At this point, it will also be worth trying out the oneiric kernel on your natty installation. On https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux click on the arrow next to "2.6.39-0.5" then on "amd64" under Builds to get to the debs, you only need to install the linux-image-*-generic deb. Another thing to try is booting a 32-bit live 11.04 image. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763909 Title: 11.04 Wont Boot With Mobility Radeon HD 3400 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
