[Bug 413791] [NEW] ATI fglrx driver appears to cause freeze on boot

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I just tried this by updating Jaunty to Karmic. I've tried this
previously right after the last Alpha - I also tried a completely fresh
install of the last Alpha.

I have an ATI Radeon mobile in my laptop. After upgrading, before the
login screen appears, the comp freezes and shows a bunch of random
colored boxes and lines.

If I boot with the previous kernel I can at least get into the OS - but
when you go to the restricted drivers, while it says the ATI driver is
activated, its not in use.

I can provide further info upon request - did some searching to see if
anyone else sees this, and havn't found anything yet.
