After upgrading to Xenial today and ensuring the xorg radeon driver was enabled, my machine will no longer boot to a usable state. After selecting default Ubuntu option from GRUB menu, both monitor lose signal input and the keyboard becomes unresponsive. Sometimes the machine will reboot on its own, most of the time I have to hard reset. WORKAROUND: Use one of the following kernel parameters: nomodeset radeon.modeset=0 The machine will boot but the radeon driver will not load. Attempting to load radeon driver with `sudo modprobe radeon modeset=1` after booting with modesetting off results in the same fail state explained above.
