Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
When booting up Ubuntu Gutsy on a Toshiba Satellite L35-S2316 laptop
with an ATI Radeon Xpress 200m the laptop goes to start X, however the
screen goes blank, and when I say blank, I mean blank, no power,
straight black! This only occurs with the 2.6.22 kernels and not the
2.6.20 kernels.
How this was fixed:
I removed the radeon.ko from
/lib/modules/2.6.22-12-generic/kernel/drivers/char/drm/, rebooted and it
worked (thanks to mj59). I am attaching a before and after Xorg.0.log
file below.
