I agree - I did some more testing and placed an entry for the radeon- module into /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, and voilá - no crash! (after booting into X I can't get back to the text-console, but that's possibly another issue). What proves the "bad interaction" even more is: when also placing "i915" into /etc/initramfs-tools/modules BEFORE "radeon", booting isn't possible at all any more, but when placing i915 AFTER radeon, booting is possible, but I got a black screen (as in totally black, that is: no backlight) until X starts up. I'll try to get logs of four different initrd-configurations (though I doubt I'll be able to record the one where the crash occurs already during running of initrd...) P.S. off-topic, I knew a cjwatson once - hi Kamion ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/727620 Title: [Radeon HD 5650 and 5470] Driver crash during recovery boot and in normal boot (Regression from 2.6.38-3 to -4) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
