zwaardmeester, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/cu

I can try to boot from i386 USB stick, they have a seperate "partition" to store permanent data on. I need to set up "extended desktop" mode anyway first, then reboot, before the problems occur. I'll be back :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which

Oh no, I just realized you are on amd64... I was building i386 modules :( I am not going to cross-compile for amd64, but I will attach the patch here in case someone else is willing to do it. Otherwise, you can also try booting a i386 live CD to see if the issue is the same there. In that case, y

The above file is already the result of dmesg > dmesg.txt. Also i checked the /var/log/kern*.logs, no special part about gart there. Insmodding still fails with the same error. I'm doing it like this: - first ctrl-alt-F1 and log in - then "sudo service gdm stop" - then "sudo insmod radeon.ko" on

Unfortunately there is no reference to radeon in that dmesg.txt. The one in /var/log only contains the early boot messages. Please check the /var/log/kern.log* files which are more complete, or run dmesg > dmesg.txt yourself. If there is still no radeon stuff in there, try to insmod it. -- You re

Sorry, I must have made a mistake. Try this one. Actually, testing it by loading it manually might be difficult when you have radeon hardware, because the original module will be locked. Therefore, copy it into place and reboot. I have verified that this module loads fine with the 2.6.38-8.42-gener

Thanks. I think the module did not load at all, probably a version mismatch. What does "cat /proc/version_signature" say? I can try to recompile it again later. You can also try to load it manually using "sudo insmod ..." (with X not running). -- You received this bug notification because you are
