apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected oneiric
** Description changed: Upon booting without splash screen (GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""), I initially get blocks of white on my screen (all the time) instead of text (please see attached picture). Towards the later part of the boot process, I am able to get the normal small text. However, this text is also at times of the wrong dimension (vertical height is shorter than normal). Another possibly related issue is that when I boot with splash screen, the boot splash screen is sometimes not of the correct dimension on the screen. At times, the "ubuntu" logo with the 5 dots below is way too small and look exactly like the font used for the text mode boot up. This also happens on and off, and when I'm lucky I can get the normal sized ubuntu boot splash screen. I'm not sure if it's a graphics driver issue, but here are some of the details of my system's display: OpenGL vendor string: X.Org R300 Project OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on ATI RV515 OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 7.11 - 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon - X2300 + 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon X2300 + --- + AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24. + AplayDevices: + **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** + card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC262 Analog [ALC262 Analog] + Subdevices: 1/1 + Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 + ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 + Architecture: i386 + ArecordDevices: + **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** + card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC262 Analog [ALC262 Analog] + Subdevices: 1/1 + Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 + AudioDevicesInUse: + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC0: bertran 1512 F.... pulseaudio + CRDA: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory + Card0.Amixer.info: + Card hw:0 'Intel'/'HDA Intel at 0xfc400000 irq 47' + Mixer name : 'Realtek ALC262' + Components : 'HDA:10ec0262,104d2100,00100202 HDA:14f12c06,104d1700,00100000' + Controls : 20 + Simple ctrls : 13 + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 + HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=4bba2a83-63ba-42dd-a264-8f3fee46f211 + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release i386 (20110427.1) + MachineType: Sony Corporation VGN-CR35G_L + Package: linux (not installed) + PccardctlIdent: + Socket 0: + no product info available + PccardctlStatus: + Socket 0: + no card + ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.0.0-12-generic root=UUID=988affe8-7ff7-4aa5-a9dd-ed7673595cda ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-12.20-generic 3.0.4 + PulseSinks: + Error: command ['pacmd', 'list-sinks'] failed with exit code 1: Home directory /home/bertran not ours. + No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon. + PulseSources: + Error: command ['pacmd', 'list-sources'] failed with exit code 1: Home directory /home/bertran not ours. + No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon. + RelatedPackageVersions: + linux-restricted-modules-3.0.0-12-generic N/A + linux-backports-modules-3.0.0-12-generic N/A + linux-firmware 1.60 + Tags: oneiric + Uname: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic i686 + UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-10-28 (11 days ago) + UserGroups: + + dmi.bios.date: 06/02/2008 + dmi.bios.vendor: Phoenix Technologies LTD + dmi.bios.version: R2101Q0 + dmi.board.asset.tag: N/A + dmi.board.name: VAIO + dmi.board.vendor: Sony Corporation + dmi.board.version: N/A + dmi.chassis.asset.tag: N/A + dmi.chassis.type: 10 + dmi.chassis.vendor: Sony Corporation + dmi.chassis.version: N/A + dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnPhoenixTechnologiesLTD:bvrR2101Q0:bd06/02/2008:svnSonyCorporation:pnVGN-CR35G_L:pvrC1022MW5:rvnSonyCorporation:rnVAIO:rvrN/A:cvnSonyCorporation:ct10:cvrN/A: + dmi.product.name: VGN-CR35G_L + dmi.product.version: C1022MW5 + dmi.sys.vendor: Sony Corporation ** Attachment added: "AcpiTables.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886547/+attachment/2590371/+files/AcpiTables.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886547 Title: garbled text when booting without splash screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/886547/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
