Bug Description
HP nw8240 laptop
When trying to install Gutsy Tribe 1 the screen goes black after the usplash status screen. The system is booting fine as I can hear the login sound effects and the system is usable if I ctrl-alt-f1. lspci -v lists the ATI video card as (ran from my Feisty install):
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility X700 (PCIE) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Unknown device 0940
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
Memory at c0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
I/O ports at 2000 [size=256]
Memory at c8800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
[virtual] Expansion ROM at c8820000 [disabled] [size=128K]
Also, "Safe Graphics" and vga=771 does not help or fix this issue. Attached is the xorg.cof file the Gutsy generated.
