Public bug reported: Binary package hint: unity
On my Gateway LT31u (Radeon X1250, a.k.a. rs690m), unity crashes on startup. I installed amd64 Ubuntu Desktop Maverick Alpha 2 and then the "ubuntu-netbook" package. Everything is dist-upgraded. When I try to log in, the top-left quarter of the screen gets a white box which disappears soon after; then the background, top panel and left panel appear. (The clock and indicator applets are present.) After about half a second, the panels disappear and the whole thing repeats. The crash occurs in the "mutter" process. I get different crashes depending on whether KMS is enabled. (I usually disable KMS because otherwise compiz's wobbly windows cause a crash and https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27529 causes me grief; but those are bugs for another day.) Perhaps related to Bug #596292 I've tried putting "AccelMethod" "XAA" and "AccelDFS" "off" into my xorg.conf; they don't change anything. I've also tried "DRI" "off", but that just prevents mutter from running entirely. Attached: three full backtraces, lspci info. ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Unity crashes on startup with rs690m https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/606595 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
