Problem solved. Found this solution for OpenSuSe, but it probably works with any system that loads from grub and uses fglrx 8.539
http://forums.opensuse.org/hardware/428160-11-2-fixes-xpress-200-other- legacy-cards.html The "black screen of death" can be fixed by editing /boot/grub/menu.lst and adding "vga=0xf06" and the end of your "kernel" line. This can also be entered during boot, if you know/have no other way to access the file, by editing the grub menu at boot (esc @ grub, select installation, e, select kernel, e, type at the end) but it's temporary of course. -- Catalyst 9.3 (fglrx 8.593) boots to black screen. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/503260 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
