[Bug 735126] [NEW] [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

After upgrading maverick (x86 32 bit system but with PAE kernel) system
does not boot, after some disk activity the upper half of the screen is
filled with garbage and no more disk activity. Booting an older kernel
(from maverick) works. Also it work with natty's kernel if I give
radeon.modeset=0 parameter at grub but then there is now hw accel.
(glxinfo reports software rendering, booting natty with maverick's
kernel seems to have it, glxinfo reports galium as the render string
then).

This is a Toshiba Satellite A300 notebook with 4G of RAM and video hw:
