Bug Description
linux-image-
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Thames [Radeon 7500M/7600M Series]
The system is unusable after this kernel upgrade - the display is flickering right after plymouth starts. Console is also not usable. However, the system works fine when I disable plymouth (delete "gfxmode $linux_gfx_mode" from grub config).

Using Ubuntu 12.10.
Upstream 3.8 kernel also has this bug.
