Description Adam Williamson 2009-10-09 21:21:44 UTC

As described in summary and discussed with Ray on IRC, booting 20091009 x86_64 desktop live image gives the plymouth text boot - the text progress bar, with KMS enabled - rather than proper graphical boot.

Test system has a Radeon HD 4770 graphics chipset. Will test on an NVIDIA 9400 chipset soon. lsinitrd shows the relevant kernel modules _are_ in the initrd.

update: works OK on intel (tested by Ray) and nouveau (tested by me), but confirmed to fail on another radeon system (by Ray). this is radeon-specific but affects multiple radeons (probably all).

misdiagnosis: actually works with dual-head, but fails with single. ray is working on a fix.
