https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36713 Summary: Computer unbootable with kernel 2.6.38.2 and xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:6.14.0-0ubuntu4 Product: DRI Version: unspecified Platform: x86-64 (AMD64) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: DRM/Radeon AssignedTo: dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: s.j.turner@xxxxxxxxxxxxx I am forwarding this bug from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/761723 The original reporter has the following hardware" GraphicsCard: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3650 [1002:9591] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Toshiba America Info Systems Device [1179:ff62] LiveMediaBuild: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Beta amd64 (20110413) MachineType: TOSHIBA Satellite A300D The original bug description is: After upgrading from Maverick to Natty, this machine (now running via a Live CD) becomes unbootable. The boot process seems to start off OK, but then finishes with an "aubergine screen of death" with a solid blue line at the top (see attached photo). I have tried the upgrade via both apt and the live CD but the two methods fail in the same way. Trying to boot via the fail safe mode also results in a system freeze (black screen of death this time!) Also: Tried again this morning, with the newly released final released. I was very disappointed to see that the problem remains. I wonder how many first time Linux users will have this as their very first Ubuntu experience. Another user reports what they believe to be the same problem, saying "This also impacts me. Here's the relevant part of dmesg:" Apr 26 16:24:38 jm-t500 avahi-dnsconfd[1147]: Successfully connected to Avahi daemon.
