The patch to resolve this issue in Quantal is already applied and
available in the 3.5.0-1.5 (or newer) Raring kernels.  Marking the
actively developed linux task (ie Raring) Fix Released.

** Description changed:

- Description:
+ == Quantal SRU Justification ==
+ While testing a recent Quantal 3.5.0-22.34 kernel, a regression was 
discovered.  On HP SL4545 G7 systems, running this latest 3.5.0-22.34 Quantal 
kernel resulted in a failure to display a login screen/prompt.  Booting into a 
previous 3.5.0-17.28 Quantal kernel confirmed the issue went away.  This issue 
was bisected and it was determined the following commit introduced the 
regression:
+ 
+ commit 83325d072185899b706de2956170b246585aaec9

+ 
+     DRM/Radeon: Fix Load Detection on legacy primary DAC.
+ 
+ == Fix ==
+ After additional testing, it was then confirmed that the following upstream 
commit (which has also been CC'd to stable) resolves the issue:
+ 
+ commit 51861d4eebc2ddc25c77084343d060fa79f6e291

+     radeon/kms: force rn50 chip to always report connected on analog
+ output
+ 
+ == Test Case ==
+ Boot eg. the 3.5.0-22.34 Quantal kernel on an HP SL4545 G7 system and confirm 
the login screen/prompt is *not* displayed and ssh'ing into the system one can 
see the following message in dmesg output:
+ 
+ [    5.848056] No connectors reported connected with modes
+ [    5.848059] [drm] Cannot find any crtc or sizes - going 1024x768
+ 
+ Boot a kernel with commit 51861d4e applied on an HP SL4545 G7 system and
+ confirm the login screen/prompt is displayed and the above message is
+ not seen in dmesg output.
+ 
+ === Original Bug Description ==
  
  Ubuntu 13.04 and 12.04.02: Login screen does not appear after installing
  OS on SL4545 G7 server. Quantal works fine...
  
  Expected Result: Login should be successful. But even after
  blacklisting, we are unable to get the login screen

  HP Quix ID:  QXCR1001260069
  Hardware Configuraiton:
  Issue Description:
  Install Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail or 12.04.2 and reboot the system. Login 
screen does not appear and video shows as disconnected in management integrated 
remote console. As well no login in prompt on the server console. But we can 
ssh to the ssh. 12.10 Quantal works fine without any issue.
  
  Workaround: Boot the system with nomodeset kernel parameter and we can
  see the login screen. This server has radeon driver for graphics.
