[Dapper] X11 doesn´t start (ATI Radeon X300 Mobility)

[mo_no]

With Ubuntu 6.10 DapperFlight4 (Install + LiveCD Version) X11 doesn´t work.
The System crashes with a black screen.

I own a Dell Inspiron 6000 notebook with an ATI Radeon X300 Mobility graphic card.

With install version I even tested different kinds of drivers (ati, radeon, vesa) by editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf within a LiveCD environment - but no one woked...

Here are dmesg und lspci -v from my Ubuntu 5.10 installation (which runs perfectly) with ATI´s fglrx driver.

Here´s the kernel error message which appears booting in verbose mode (without "quiet splash")
Sorry for the low quality.....

[somename (x-inluo)]

same computer, same graphic card, same problem.

[Álvaro (acbenito+ubuntu)]

Same problem with Ubuntu Dapper Flight 5...

[bengregor (bengregor)]

My computer: AMD 64, ATI X800, monitor crt Hitachi CM641, but the same problem as above.
Within Flight 3, 4, and 5.
I can't resolve this problem with dpkg-reconfigure.
For me, if I cannot install my Ubuntu, is a very big problem.
Video card suppor is very very important.
Bye

[Susan Cragin (susancragin)]

see bug 29880 and bug 32474

[Mike Gallagher (mgllghr)]

Same problem for me. If I boot into the recovery console, I can apt-get the fglrx driver, change xorg.conf to use fglrx, and then reboot and it works fine.

[Prodigy44 (theprodigy44)]

[Kiphaas7 (redhotbloodhound)]

I think so. On my acer 1652 laptop (with x300 mobility), I have about the same problem. Breezy works just fine, but dapper (flight 5) installs fine, but won't boot into x.

[Susan Cragin (susancragin)]

Just tried Dapper flight 5 and x hangs except when defaulting to external monitor.
Acer Ferrari AMD64 (using the 64 Dapper install).
ATI Mobility Radeon x700
On the last install, I could correct by adding the following to menu.lst
        Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,CRT"
        Option "MetaModes" "680x480,1680x1050"
But that didn't work with Flight 5.

Please, next time, attach the log and configuration files instead of pasting them into comments.

[Stevie Beth Mhaol (kormat)]

Fwiw, i have an inspirion 9300, and previously had problems with the graphics card (ati radion x300 mobility) (see <a href=https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/20027">this bug</a>). Since that was fixed in flight 3, i've had no further issues.

[Stevie Beth Mhaol (kormat)]

Ah. Scratch that. I installed flight 5 today, have had all sorts of issues. X occasionaly works, occasionally half-works (desktop loads, can move the mouse pointer, but that's it) and occasionally completely fails to work (black or corrupted screen).

[Fabio Massimo Di Nitto (fabbione)]

Could you please update the ati driver from the network?

I did release a new version with tons of bug fixes yesterday and it is not yet on CD.

Fabio

[Corey Burger (corey.burger)]

Don't need two bugs here.

[mo_no (novege)]

I booted the ubuntu dapper installation with the rescue system from installation cd and updated the system via "apt-get upgrade & apt-get update".

In fact after that the system works fine. ;-)

[Susan Cragin (susancragin)]

i tried apt-get upgrade and apt-get update but it did not work for my Acer Ferrari 4005. Later tonight I will try a couple of edits to xorg.conf and see if I can get it to work.

[Susan Cragin (susancragin)]

I just tried to attach my latest xorg.conf and xorg.0.log, but it didn't work. However, I did attach them to
bug 35066
thanks.
despite my earlier message, I did not try a "couple of edits" on them. THey are clean.

[Susan Cragin (susancragin)]

Please do not refer to my xorg.conf and xorg.0.log attached above. Updates did not happen cleanly.
Re-tried updating today, and over 100 files needed updates. (!!**$$%) Something must have gone wrong.
However, when I did finish updating, re-booted, and screen was black. My problem was not solved.
So then I re-booted into external monitor, which works fine. Then I opened Synaptic, apt-got xorg-driver-fglx and related file, and re-booted into Safe Mode, unplugging the external monitor.
Then did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and changed the driver from ATI to FGLX.
Now it works fine.

Just installed Dapper Flight 6. Xorg did not come up. Have attached xorg.conf and XOrg.0.log

Dapper Flight 6 Live CD works fine (appart from wakeing up after standby mode...)

I´ll test a installation later this week.

I have the same problem with ATI Radeon 9600 and Flight 6 of 6.6. Install went fine, but on first boot the XServer did complete hang up my computer. No other console reachable. Only hardboot possible. XOrg configured the ati driver, which seems not to work. Also apt-get update/upgrade in recovery mode did not resolve the problem.
I was able to use the VESA driver and was then able to install the fglrx-package, which also works fine for me. But the X-Crashing with ati-driver could be a big problem for many people.
If needed, I can attach log and conf-file...

X fails to start after upgrading the distro from breezy to dapper flight 6.
All config files were replaced with the default ones requested by synaptic.

I experienced a similar situation where X and Gnome just freeze upon login(no blank screen; the screen just froze). I couldn"t access a console, mouse or anything for that matter. Only a hard re-boot (pressing the power button) would release the system.I have been experiencing this problem since i tried to upgrade (sudo apt-get dist-upgrade) to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper beta2. I have dont have any such problem on my Ubuntu 5.10 installation. I have a ATI (ATI Radeon 9600)graphics card. (Toshiba SA60 laptop). I have had to downgrade back to Ubuntu 5.10. Could this be the same problem? Or would this be a different issue?

[Susan Cragin (susancragin)]

Try attaching an external monitor. If that works,
edit xorg.conf to add two lines near the end:

Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,CRT"
Option "MetaModes" "680x480,1680x1050"

(or whatever size your screen is)
Works for me.

I experienced a similar problem too with my fujitsu m1450G. The live CD freezes when gnome starts. I had to boot with the safe graphic mode.
lspci : Display controller: intel corporation mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML

I have no problem with breezy too.

When looking dmesg : it uses the xforcevesa to boot ?

I doubt in upgrading my breezy to dapper with synaptic as I don't expect to be able to reboot after upgrade.:-)

No need to bump the severity. The original bug has been fixed. If you have other problems, file a new bug....
