tolostoi, as per the article section https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection#Before_Starting_to_Commit_Bisect_Your_Kernel_Regression : "One would want to test each one until you have the problematic kernel immediately following the kernel that works." In your case, 3.4.0-5-generic works, but 3.5.0-16-generic does not. However, these two kernels do not immediately follow one another in version number. As per https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/linux we have the following kernels between the two: 3.4.0-5.11 3.5.0-1.1 3.5.0-1.1 3.5.0-2.2 3.5.0-2.2 3.5.0-3.3 3.5.0-3.3 3.5.0-4.4 3.5.0-4.4 3.5.0-5.5 3.5.0-5.5 3.5.0-6.6 3.5.0-6.6 3.5.0-7.7 3.5.0-7.7 3.5.0-8.8 3.5.0-8.8 3.5.0-9.9 3.5.0-9.9 3.5.0-10.10 3.5.0-10.10 3.5.0-11.11 3.5.0-11.11 3.5.0-12.12 3.5.0-12.12 3.5.0-13.13 3.5.0-13.13 3.5.0-13.14 3.5.0-14.15 3.5.0-14.15 3.5.0-14.16 3.5.0-14.16 3.5.0-14.17 3.5.0-14.18 3.5.0-14.19 3.5.0-15.20 3.5.0-15.20 3.5.0-15.21 3.5.0-15.22 3.5.0-15.23 3.5.0-16.24 3.5.0-16.24 3.5.0-16.25
For example, if you found that the first problematic kernel was 3.5.0-1.1, then the 3.4.0-5 is the last kernel that works, as 3.5.0-1.1 comes immediately after 3.4.0-5, then you could continue following the article. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1029790 Title: Can't boot without nomodeset option-kernel 3.5.X.X/3.6.X.X ATI M52 [Mobility Radeon X1300] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1029790/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
