Re: Softlockup on boot with Cape Verde XT on many kernels

[Federico <federicotg@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ubuntu 14.10 (kernel is 3.16.0) with nomodeset also boots. But it seems to be using the a generic driver

Booting with nomodeset disables the graphics drivers so if you are
still getting problems, it may a hardware problem.  Can you attach
your full dmesg and lspci output?  Are you disabling the onboard
graphics when enabling the external dGPU?

I attached those outputs to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1386973

I wasn't sure if you meant attaching to this response.

I was able to boot with nomodeset into Ubuntu 15.04's image. I get to a graphic log in screen, but I also get some errors in the kernel log

[drm:radeon_init] *ERROR* No UMS support in radeon module!

Which seems by design so I assume the VESA driver was in use.

I will try to boot Ubuntu 14.10 live image with nomodeset to see if I can get some error messages there.
