Bug#665000: Workaround for this bug
Hi,
On one of my server, I had the issue as well. I'm not sure if it's the
exact same one, but at least I fixed it.
What happened for me was that my KVM over IP was printing "No signal"
just right after the login prompt (eg: the rest of the boot process
seemed to not be bothered). Then I did:
dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
and added:
radeon.modeset=0
to the linux command line. After doing that, then I was able to see my
text mode login prompt (which is the only thing I care for a server, I
will never care about X support...).
Though, I am wondering if the issue isn't simply that the kernel is
trying to set a mode which is higher than what my KVM over IP can
support. How can I choose such mode (which would be a better fix)? Do
you know Ben, maybe?
Hoping that this will help anyone searching for a quick and easy fix,
Thomas
