Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
Release : Kubuntu 10.04 RC AMD64 Package : xserver-xorg Problem Description : When starting live CD session instead of logging in to a Kwin interface it starts on console mode (meaning that the hole screen is the console). Trying to explicit start the kwin reports that no X server is not running. Trying to start the X server explicit leads to a blank (black) screen. When power down (button press) i can see the init cursor of the X server (X) instantly and then i am directed to the console again for something like a second and then to the blue GUI screen with the kubuntu logo prompting to remove CD. In both cases of start-up and shut-down the GUI screens with the logo of kubuntu are shown. Hardware Information : VGA compatible controller : ATI Technologies Inc RV730 PRO [Radeon HD 4650] Host bridge : ATI Technologies Inc RD790 Northbridge only dual slot PCI-e_GFX and HT3 K8 part Audio device : ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) Audio device : ATI Technologies Inc R700 Audio Device [Radeon HD 4000 Series] CPU : AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor Motherboard : MSI 790FX-GD70 (790FX Northbidge) Notice that the 9.10 version of kubuntu works fine on that hardware. Also notice that in the working 9.10 version i am using a custom kernel 2.6.32 (official) with custom built fglrx 8.712 (ATI 10.3 official driver). In the 9.10 release i had similar problems with the 10.2 ATI driver. So i assume that is either the X Server or some faulty driver package (if any is used). The X.Org X Server 1.6.4 of previous version seems to work fine with both 2.6.32 kernel and the latest ATI fglrx drivers (with the exception of 10.2) I hope this info is useful for a better release. ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Kubuntu 10.04 RC xserver-xorg crashes during startup live session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569008 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
