confirming that Kernel 3.6 from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/ fixes this problem. Is there any chance to get the fix backported to 12.10? (or a hint for a somewhat current 3.6 kernel repo?) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is

I've encountered the same bug with an ATI card. I modified plymouth, per Steve's suggestion, so that the radeon driver would be preferred over the generic driver and that had no effect. So this seems like a kernel bug - moving it over there. ** Package changed: plymouth (Ubuntu) = linux

I should clarify that this could also be a regression in libdrm, which had a new version uploaded on Sep 3. Someone who can reproduce this bug should regression test to see if downgrading the libdrm, or downgrading the kernel, or both, fixes this issue. -- You received this bug notification
