[Bug 634614] [NEW] Xorg crash with ati rv740 (HD 4770) when kms/modeset enabler

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

It's impossible to get to the user interface when radeon.modeset=1, this
means kms is still broken with rv740. Unless you know a little about it
you will think ubuntu doesn't work, like this since kms is enable by
default. So there is the 'xorg' problem which I hope it will be solve
one day and the distribution 'ubuntu' problem, is it not possible to
fallback to ums when the card is known to not be supported by kms as the
rv740 : will improve the end-user experience, I know you care about it.
