Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Could you please add your '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' file, your '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' file and the full output of 'lspci -vvnn' as attachments to your bug report? Thanks in advance.

I can also confirm Brians report of this bug on a Dell Inspiron 8600 with ATI Radeon 9600Pro. X is not starting after upgrading from Gutsy Tribe 5 at 19.09.07.
The same behaviour happens in a fresh installed Gutsy Beta.
My screen starts first black, than displays more and more weird colored lines.

The same behaviour I had sometimes with Kubuntu 6.x at shutdown, working with xorg-driver for the ATI card. If using the non-free ATI-driver this error in Kubuntu disappeared.

[Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton)]

Do you still have this problem with 7.10 or Hardy alpha3?

[Dascon (daniel-schimrik)]

At late september I did a short workaround to get radeon work on 7.10 final release:
I installed gutsy tribe 5, activated ATI restricted drivers and then I upgraded to final 7.10. Disabling ATI drivers worked fine.

My installation is working since that time with all updates, and no problems with radeon driver at all.

[Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton)]

Cool, I'll close this bug then. Flextc, if you still have issues with 7.10 or later, feel free to reopen.
