Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
I have an ATI Raderon X1250 card, using a hp 6715s notebook with an amd sempron 3600+ processor (64-bit capabale) and 1gig ram. Using the alpha2 live cd, I got exactly the same error message as those in bug #174434. I tried to copy over all the relevant log files via ssh to post them there. But before I had the time to do that, the screen just turned black, and the computer froze completely. This happened several times, every time within a few minutes. So, every time, before I had the time to scp the files over, the computer froze. With the alpha3 live-cd, things has gotten worse: - With usplash enabled it get's quite far in the booting process, and then suddenly just turns blank, and freezes completely, at about the time that I suppose that X should begin loading. - If I disable usplash it will come past "starting gdm", then switch between blank screen and the bootup-text screen a few times, and after that nothing happens. I'm still able to use the computer in terminal-mode, but it does not even put out an error message that configuring X failed, like it did with alpha2. Maybe my problem with the freezing is due to something else than X, i don't know, but it seems quite likely as it freezes as the screen turns blank, and about the same time when X was supposed to start. Note: This notebook did not work with Gutsy either. I'm using the 32-bit version of ubuntu.
