In most cases the card simply shuts off at the attempt to modeset unless booted with kernel paramenter radeon.dpm=0 to disable dynamic GPU power management. At least once the 5770 gave a text mode after a considerable delay, and the boot messages indicated that Plymouth had crashed, which also crashed my script for unlocking the encrypted boot volume. Not sure if this is the right place to report this given it is a PPA, if not, where would be the correct place? I cannot send the lspiv-vnvn.log to a public forum because the publication of exact hardware information could benefit adversaries seeking to attack my encrypted computers by means of firmware-based attacks. I can report that both computers use AMD processors (Phenom II x4 and FX-8120), one a Radeon HD5770, the other a Radeon 6750. Here is the version.log for the offending kernel, however. Linux version 3.14.0-999-generic (apw@gomeisa) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) ) #201403040405 SMP Tue Mar 4 09:06:13 UTC 2014 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1288040/+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
