When choose the 3.5 kernel from grub menu and start loading, after 10-15 seconds, just freeze, and can't do anything. I tried and mainline kernel from kernel-ppa/mainline but no change, still can't boot. A Ubuntu kernel version bisect revealed that 3.4.0-5.11 works and the first problematic kernel is 3.5.0-1.1 . WORKAROUND: 1. edit grub command line to add 'nomodeset' and boot. 2. Then add 'nomodeset' in GRUB2's kernel command line (using GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub) and run 'sudo update-grub' 3. Add the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local: modprobe -r radeon modprobe -r drm modprobe radeon modeset=1 4. Remove ~/.Xauthority 5. Reboot WORKAROUND: Use kernel parameter: nomodeset However, with nomodeset, 3D don't work correctly, cant use normal unity session, unity 2D session works but with artifacts.
