Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
My system freezes during start up. The monitor switches off and even the keboard does not react etc on caps lock any more.
Changing driver from ATI to VESA fixed the problem but system is awfully slow.
System worked fine with 3D acceleration etc. on 7.04. Then I upgraded to 7.10 and the system freezed.
I tried the 7.10 boot CD and the system freezed with the same symptoms, too.
I tried booting with my still installed 7.04 kernel, but no change.
Thus I upgraded to 8.04 but with exactly the same result.
When I dual boot to Win98 SE everything works still fine. Thus I guess my customizing is not relevant and the system does not have a hardware issue.
This is what I tried so far without any change in the symptoms:
- use 7.04 kernel from my previously running system
- update to the new driver from 04/04/2008 from here https:/
- delete xorg.conf or use old xorg.conf
- start in recovery mode and used the fix option for xorg
- remove the higher screen resolutions from my monitor settings
- ati driver options in xorg.conf
- Option "BusType" "PCI"
- Option "LVDSBiosNative
