Under openSUSE 11.1 (64bit) it seems that with catalyst 9.5 the problem is gone (I am using an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650). The X server starts up just fine without using "aticonfig --acpi-services=off". (This also solves a problem with the HDMI output (hot-plug) recognition.)
I am sorry, that I cannot test this under Ubuntu at the moment. As the problem seems to be rather distribution independent, this information might be valuable anyway. -- fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
