[Bug 560198] [NEW] Screen goes crazy if you boot kernels newer than 2.6.31-14

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

When I request ubuntu-bug -p xorg i get:
Warning: The options -p/-P are deprecated, please do not use them.  See /usr/bin/ubuntu-bug --help

The bug works this way:
I'm using 10.04 Lucid Beta from a month ago. When I get updated to kernels over 2.6.31-14 (now I'm in 2.6.31-19) and I boot with any of them, the screen goes crazy between the grub and the gdm and never come back. The machine keeps booting and play the usual gdm sounds, but the screen keep turning into black and white patterns (it seems like a fractal screensaver).
Trying to boot whithout GUI or turn to non-graphical-mode or secure mode doesn't change the screen behavior.
Thanks in advance.
