@Id2ndR: In step 1 (comment #30), use 'text nomodeset' as options. This will get you into the console mode without troubles. Then follow the rest of the steps.
The important point is, you must get into console mode and modify rc.local so that radeon driver is *reloaded* with 'nomodeset=1' along with drm module before you go into GUI mode. It seems, this bug is a related to some race condition (grub<->kernel modules<->X) in boot procedure. -- 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
