[Bug 47880] Re: Boot fails after loading kernel, black screen during install Dapper
I'm closing this bug since it's not clear what really is going on. Seems to be due to some broken upgrade long time ago. If you have problems with Hardy (please try alpha3), feel free to reopen a new bug against xserver-xorg-video-ati.

Thank you for all your work, Paul! This sounds much like an unsupported video driver issue. askrieger and/or Dimitri, could you please test against Feisty, which has newer drivers? -- Boot fails after loading kernel, black screen during install Dapper https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/47880 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 47880] Re: Boot fails after loading kernel, black screen during install Dapper
I must admit it's not clear to me how to perform the test. The problem arose UPGRADING from Breezy to Dapper. It was solved by doing a fresh install of Dapper. In order to repeat the procedure, I'd have to reinstall Breezy, then attempt to upgrade to Dapper. Is it even possible to reinstall Breezy? As far as I know, no one reported having the same problem with the Mobility Radeon when upgrading from Dapper to Edgy, or Edgy to Feisty. As I've stated before, I'd prefer to keep my laptop running Dapper so that I can provide long term support to Kubuntu Dapper users on KubuntuForums.net.

Re: [Bug 47880] Re: Boot fails after loading kernel, black screen during install Dapper
I am still using Dapper on my laptop (in order to provide Long Term Support. to Dapper users). As I said in my original report, I worked around the bug by reinstalling from scratch with the Desktop iso. So, I have no idea whether the bug persisted or not. BTW, Did I REALLY write /etc/networking//xorg.conf instead of /etc/X11/xorg.conf? That (plus the fact that I didn't include the material from /var/log/xorg.0.log) probably explains why no one looked at the problem until now. Unfortunately, at the time, I had no idea that other people would have the same problem.

Thanks for these infos askrieger! However Dimitri problem is/was that he cannot boot with the LiveCD on his Desktop because the screen turns black. And you says that your problem was only on upgrading from breezy to dapper, no problem with the LiveCD. So I believe you have different problems. I am waiting for news from Dimitri. -- Boot fails after loading kernel, black screen during install Dapper https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/47880 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The two confirming incidents in the thread at Kubuntu Forums (http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3608 (on page two).) were both on attempted upgrades.
