Ok, tried to install Gutsy from the official Canonical CD and it fails during install, as above. Even in safe graphics mode. This on a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600, with Trident Cyberblade graphics card. A card, if I may say so, that worked out-of-the-box since the 2006 LTS version. My only hope is to upgrade from the LTS version as later versions leave me without wireless (another regression).

Fixed! Xorg starts with 1152x864 resolution without any problems.

Just tried the latest release of Gutsy: 7.10 Release Candidate. New behaviour, instead of the behaviour I reported earlier I'm seeing the following on my Averatec 3200 Since the safe boot option no longer is a choice, I selected Start or Install After booting for a bit I think X attempts to start and the screen is blank but back-lit. I waited a bit for this and finally gave up. I rebooted and edited the boot line to add vga=771 Eventually (after 5 or more mins) the system X started and produced a warning error box indicating it was in low-res mode because it could not detect my hardware and asking whether I would like to configure things manually. I tried various of the options offered (rebooting between each and painstakingly waiting to get to the warning box). None of the following attempts succeeded 1) simply press continue at the warning box 2) Configure as 800x600 generic lcd at 60hz device driver vga 3) Configure as 1024x768 generic lcd at 60hz device driver vesa All of these result in a blank backlit screen but no X windows or cursor displayed. -- desktop cd fails to start gdm with hp nc6400 (widescreen, ati-based laptop) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Timo, I've just tried with todays (070824) iso of gutsy. I got the usual error and I was told X was disabled. I downloaded xserver-xorg-core_1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu1_i386.deb and upgraded with dpkg -Gi. Restarted gdm and waited but X didn't start this time either, same error as before. I'm attaching my Xorg.0.log. ** Attachment added: Xorg.0.log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8972845/Xorg.0.log -- desktop cd fails to start gdm with hp nc6400 (widescreen, ati-based laptop) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

If anyone of you is using gutsy at the moment, please test a new xserver version available here: http://users.tkk.fi/~tjaalton/dpkg/xserver It has a patch which should fix this for good. -- desktop cd fails to start gdm with hp nc6400 (widescreen, ati-based laptop) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

In speaking with the Xorg -ati maintainer, this is a known issue that he's able to reproduce, and confirmed that it even fails for kernel vesafb.

Btw - the known issue is specific to 64-bit systems. I've marked several bugs as dupes of this one. If anyone subscribed to this bug is *not* on 64-bit, let me know - in those cases it's probably a different issue and we should de-dupe it. -- desktop cd fails to start gdm with hp nc6400 (widescreen, ati-based laptop) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

There is also a vesa fix coming up in our next xorg-server upload (probably tomorrow), which includes a patch from debian, 41_vbe_filter_less.diff, which makes Xorg not drop modes too early, before they've had a chance to be validated.

There seems to be 2 similar bugs here. (Not sure which one is #89853) One of them manifest itself like this: Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. Fatal server error: no screens found The other (mine) is this one: No valid modes left. Trying less strict filter... Fatal server error: Caught signal 11.

[Bug 103945] Re: desktop cd fails to start gdm with hp nc6400 (widescreen, ati-based laptop)
I can reproduce this bug. My laptop is a Fujitsu Amilo Pi1536, Core Duo T2300, ATI x1400 The X server crashes on starting gdm (signal 11 error). I have edited the xorg.conf file and the vesa driver was being used. (This should be OK, since ATI x1000 series are not supported by the open source ati driver). I suppose this is a xorg or vesa driver related bug. I consider that it should be classified as critical, as it blocks the average user (the target audience of the desktop install cd). I have found the following workaround (I have been able to successfully start the livecd in 640x480, and complete the installation). See if this works for you. $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg Choose the default options, except when you are asked for the resolutions. Then choose only 640x480. (I have found this is the only one that works). (you can instead edit manually /etc/X11/xorg.conf with nano and delete all the other resolutions) $ sudo killall gdm $ sudo gdm After the installation has finished you can install the fglrx through Restricted Drivers Manager. (I think you need to have the internet connection active). Then in a console $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg Make sure you choose the 1280x800 resolution. CTRL+ALT+BackSpace And that's all, you should now have your ubuntu feisty working at native resolution. -- desktop cd fails to start gdm with hp nc6400 (widescreen, ati-based laptop) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 103945] Re: desktop cd fails to start gdm with hp nc6400 (widescreen, ati-based laptop)
I just took a few minutes to try that workaround with the 7.04 final ubuntu amd64 desktop cd. The reconfigure seemed to work, and I disabled all resolutions except for 640x480. However, I still can't start X (no screens found).

Per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingXAutoconfiguration the following workaround did work for me: $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ...choose defaults for everything $ sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf ...in the section Monitor (around line 100 in my file), insert these lines before EndSection HorizSync 36-52 VertRefresh 36-60 $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart ...may need to do that twice - the first restart failed for me, probably due to a stray pid file or something like that. -- desktop cd fails to start gdm with hp nc6400 (widescreen, ati-based laptop) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
