I do-release-upgraded to 64-bit Lucid, and brand new fglrx release exhibits same symptoms here (Xorg 100% CPU, blank screen, and the Xorg.log stopping exactly at the same point as the submitter's one), on a HD5770 w/ 1GB VRAM, and 5 GB of main memory.
It leads to unkillable Xorg, only resort seems to be rebooting. One more remark: I haven't really had time to delve further on this issue, but from the looks of it on the web (Googling around, and on various scattered forums, i.e ubuntuforums, phoronix.com, etc), it seems exclusive to 64-bit setups, especially with large amounts of RAM and recent models of Radeons (HD3xxx and upwards). Someone seemed to point to MTRR as culprit, based on past problems with other (Intel or older ATi) cards (and also based on successes after manually fixing MTRR mapping). -- [fglrx karmic] Black screen and no response after starting X (Radeon HD3870) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486502 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer 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
