I haven't tried this with earlier Ubuntu versions - this card was only just supported in 10.04, and I only had two available to try as of a few days ago. I could try booting the live CD and see if the nomodeset is still required?
As per your suggestion, I will also open an account at bugs.freedesktop.org - thanks! -- Cannot boot with 2xHD5970 in crossfire on GA-X58A-UD7 motherboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/678148 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
