ok so i downloaded the live cd and popped it into the computer, ubuntu boots up like regular, asking language and all that. i select to run from live cd and it fails to the GUI and goes strait to a command interface. giving me the same error/bug as this ticket.
ive tried to open the Xorg.0.log file and it says there is no such file or directory im pretty new to the operating system, been using it since 8.10 but dont know how to compile or install diff files. if its possible for some instruction on what i should do that would be greatly appreciated. i will also transfer one of the ati 4890 cards to a different system and run the same test just to see if i get the same thing, and its not just some other piece of hardware. anyways ill get back to tomorrow with some updates. if anyone else wants to collaborate and help knock this thing out that would be greatly appreciated. so all help is welcome =) -- [HD 4890] X server does not start up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/361596 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati 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
