[Bug 643118] Re: [RV350] Desktop corruption – Screen only shows vertical bands

 

Did you already test the kernel as of point 1 in comment 11 above?

Now that you have your working Beta installed, start with updating the
kernel and reboot to see if it breaks. Then do -ati/-radeon, xorg-
server-core and mesa packages as before.

If we rule out all the graphic driver packages (including kernel), we
will have to look at packages like plymouth which might affect how the
graphics is initialized.

Once the system is broken, we will hopefully know exactly which package
broke it. To further diagnose the problem, some tricks on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/NonGraphicalBoot can be useful, like the
"Booting LiveCD Without X" section which also applies to an installed
system. (Note that the "Bypassing/Disabling gdm" section is outdated now
that we use upstart instead of init/rc scripts.)
