Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H with embedded ATI Radeon HD3200 Video Card: ATI Radeon HD3650 Without fglrx installed, the system would reboot as soon as X is started (before login screen) This occurred on the live cd, however enabling all of the options in the F6 menu allowed the live cd to boot into the 2d gnome. I then installed it to the hard drive thinking that I could try various configurations. The most interesting thing is that booting into the recovery console and selecting failsafeX causes the system to boot as well. I removed the video card and and booted with the on board card and the same problem existed. I also tried the ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/ppa to see if there was a newer driver, however I do not recall any changes. The solution was to install the fglrx driver. I had a thread on the forum about this while I was trying various things: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1751760 This bug was filed with ubuntu-bug while using the fglrx driver, let me know if there is anything that is needed.
