sorry, this is my production environment and I cannot upgrade now. I
could try using a live cd, but as you can read in comment #4, my system
worked well with the 13.04 live cd.

I intend to upgrade my system to 13.10, and I will maybe do it before
the official release, so after that I'll give an update if everything
works in the new system.

Title:
  AMD video card in my Dell Studio 1557 doesn't work correctly after
  upgrading to 13.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I boot the upgraded system with my old kernel (3.5.0-27),
  everything works as before. When I boot my notebook with the default
  kernel (some 3.8.x) I do see the boot logo, and afterwards I see a
  completely mess. In that case, even switching to a text console
  doesn't always work.
