I have tried Ubuntu 12.04.2 and 13.04. If I don't use the nomodeset code in EFI mode, the system boots into a black screen and to tty1 only (no desktop) with nomodeset. I have tried also Fedora 18 and Opensuse 12.3 and the problem is the same except that Opensuse boots in EFI mode with the nomodeset parameter. WORKAROUND: In Raring, change the BIOS to boot in Legacy mode. --- ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8.1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: sasdsky 1701 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=ed003934-173d-4035-8930-e8009a1f6fc8 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-06-03 (55 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130424) MachineType: Acer Aspire V3-771 MarkForUpload: True Package: linux (not installed) ProcFB: 0 VESA VGA ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.8.0-26-generic root=UUID=755018a9-6de4-46fa-aa8c-c0004515c089 ro nomodeset locale=zh_CN quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-26.38-generic 3.8.13.2 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.8.0-26-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.8.0-26-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.106 Tags: raring Uname: Linux 3.8.0-26-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo WifiSyslog: dmi.bios.date: 11/13/2012 dmi.bios.vendor: Insyde Corp. dmi.bios.version: V2.13 dmi.board.asset.tag: Type2 - Board Asset Tag dmi.board.name: VA70_HC dmi.board.vendor: Acer dmi.board.version: Type2 - Board Version dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: Chassis Manufacturer dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnInsydeCorp.:bvrV2.13:bd11/13/2012:svnAcer:pnAspireV3-771:pvrV2.13:rvnAcer:rnVA70_HC:rvrType2-BoardVersion:cvnChassisManufacturer:ct10:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: Aspire V3-771 dmi.product.version: V2.13 dmi.sys.vendor: Acer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1184650/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
