[Bug 655099] Re: [KMS] White Screen instead of desktop after 10.10 update (ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 card)

 

I have not been able to replicate the white screen.  Ever since I
removed xserver-xorg-video-radeon it has booted into what I am calling
16 colour mode.  Then when I added back xserver-xorg-video-radeon, I can
change radeon.modeset value to flip between 16 colour mode and working
mode.  Here's some screenshots of what I see:

radeon.modeset=0 - 16 colour ubuntu.com: http://imgur.com/LK7Lm.png
radeon.modeset=1 - proper ubuntu.com: http://imgur.com/4PsUh.png

During the debugging of this, I did a lot of other things which I didn't clearly document, including:
-remove/add unity
-remove/add xerver-xorg-video-radeon
-create /etc/X11/xorg.conf (no longer in use)
-change /etc/gdm/custom.conf (autlogin and defaultsession)
-possibly corrupted /etc/environment (added line export CLUTTER_VBLANK=none which is still there)

In light of all that, do you still want me to attach the log outputs as
requested with radeon.modeset=0 ?
