Hello there,

I have this problem on a Toshiba Satellite A350 with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650. I have just tried the ubuntu 9.10 . The problem still exists. My screen is black.

I have not tried to remove two of the four Gig RAM yet. I will try this as soon as I get hold of the notebook again.
If this helps I think the problem might be related to the fact that the driver is made for 32bit. As far as I know there are problems with addressing >= 4Gig RAM with 32bit. Furthermore I do not think the kernel can solve the problem. It looks like the bad ATI driver is not capable of residing within 4 Gig of RAM.

any news from your side?

Regards
