For the worst affected (like me) who can't even boot into ubuntu 11.04 without the freeze loop, do the following: After booting off the usb/cd drive, at the purple screen splash hit enter, then hit F6, and select radeon.modeset=0 and boot like normal, you should end up on the Ubuntu Classic Desktop, which you can then install Ubuntu with, and proceed to install the proprietary drivers to get the unity goodness. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #35502 http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35502 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/728923 Title: [Natty] WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-2.6.38/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_fence.c:248 radeon_fence_wait+0x36f/0x3e0 [radeon]() _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
