[Bug 1051712] Re: No desktop on 11.10 and 12.04 for amd graphic card - Xorg freeze - DellInspironM5030 - Mobility Radeon HD 4200

 

Dariusz Panasiuk, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is
already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one
would not be helpful.

If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc7

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

  Hello

  This is duplicate of following tickets:

      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/900563

  I have raised this one though ubutu-bug so all logs could be uploaded to lunchpad. Fell free to close it if you manage to move data to any other ticket.

  Full report on this laptop
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Laptop/precise/DellInspironM5030

  To summarise:
   * laptop doesn't boot with ubuntu 12.04.1 disk
   * boots with "acpi=off"
   * jockey supplied proprietary drivers don't work
   * driver from AMD support solves problems and makes this laptop usable

  cheers

  Daz
