** Description changed: Binary package hint: xorg Booting the install disk is only possible if "nomodeset" is selected on startup. It is possible to install, but when I boot the installed system I can't even get to the desktop to install the fglrx drivers. The system hangs with an ACPI error message on the console. The motherboard is advertised as capable of supporting crossfire, and my power supply is certainly hefty enough, (1000W) but the configuration fails to boot. I can get a bit further if I enable "nomodeset" on grub after the install, but the system then hard hangs with a couple of a messages something like: [Radeon ####:0000 ACPI error] The same thing happens if I boot the rescue system. I am able to install normally if I remove one of the HD5970 cards. + --- + AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.23. + Architecture: amd64 + AudioDevicesInUse: + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC0: gary 2003 F.... pulseaudio + CRDA: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory + Card0.Amixer.info: + Card hw:0 'Intel'/'HDA Intel at 0xfbff4000 irq 57' + Mixer name : 'Realtek ALC889' + Components : 'HDA:10ec0889,1458a022,00100004' + Controls : 38 + Simple ctrls : 21 + Card1.Amixer.info: + Card hw:1 'Generic'/'HD-Audio Generic at 0xfb4fc000 irq 58' + Mixer name : 'ATI R6xx HDMI' + Components : 'HDA:1002aa01,00aa0100,00100200' + Controls : 4 + Simple ctrls : 1 + Card1.Amixer.values: + Simple mixer control 'IEC958',0 + Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined penum + Playback channels: Mono + Mono: Playback [on] + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 + HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=2fab37d4-a970-411b-9b09-29351c115ed6 + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release amd64 (20101007) + IwConfig: + lo no wireless extensions. + + eth0 no wireless extensions. + MachineType: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
