in that case, the vesafb module should not have been loaded. Your udev log shows:
UDEV [26.683794] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0b.0/0000:01:00.0/drm/card0 (drm) ACTION=add DEVNAME=/dev/dri/card0 DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0b.0/0000:01:00.0/drm/card0 DEVTYPE=drm_minor MAJOR=226 MINOR=0 PRIMARY_DEVICE_FOR_DISPLAY=1 SEQNUM=1684 SUBSYSTEM=drm TAGS=:udev-acl: UDEV_LOG=3 USEC_INITIALIZED=26683507 and your dmesg output shows: [ 27.057936] vesafb: mode is 1024x768x32, linelength=4096, pages=0 [ 27.057945] vesafb: scrolling: redraw [ 27.057949] vesafb: Truecolor: size=0:8:8:8, shift=0:16:8:0 [ 27.058133] vesafb: framebuffer at 0xd0000000, mapped to 0xffffc90000e00000, using 3072k, total 3072k [ 27.060153] fb1: VESA VGA frame buffer device This means that the radeon driver was correctly loaded by udev coldplugging, and should have caused /etc/init/udev-fallback- graphics.conf to not try to load the vesafb driver. Can you please show the output of the following command: sudo grep -rl vesafb /etc 2>/dev/null Also, could you please boot with --verbose appended to your kernel command line, then run 'dmesg > dmesg.log', and attach the resulting file? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067057 Title: System startup does not appear in the "Ubuntu logo".
