Comment 59 for bug 1070690

Tim Meusel, thank you for investigating this further. Regarding your comments https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1070690/comments/57 :
>"He told me that this chipset series doesn't support the parameter nomodeset."

He did not say it's not supported. What he said was:
>"Well, you're booting with nomodeset, which then kills the driver because we seem to not properly handle a cleanup cornercase."

>"So, this bug report can be closed now."

Your prior justification does not indicate this bug should be closed. As well, this report being closed is up to Markus Schade, as he is the original reporter.

One thing I am curious about, is their a reason why you/Markus Schade are/is using the nomodeset kernel parameter? If this parameter is removed, do problems occur?

Thank you for your understanding.
