Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
This might be a regression from 103945, and is somewhat related to 152715, but the xorg log looks quite a bit different.
The hardy alpha-3 desktop cd for amd64 boots ok on my nc6400, but gdm fails to start. The error log suggests that xorg found the ati video card, but couldn't find a valid mode.
$ lspci | grep ATI
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M52 [ATI Mobility Radeon X1300]
The same laptop boots into vesa 1024x768 with gutsy. I'll attach the xorg log - please let me know if I can provide additional info.
