[Bug 67487] Re: [edgy][regression][rv280] black screen and full freeze when X starts

[shadroth]

Unusual setup, with very similar bug

I have two video cards, each with a monitor connected.

I see BIOS, and Ubuntu LiveDVD boot menu on monitor #1
When I select install/start, I see the splash screen on monitor #1, then blinking cursor, then nothing.I then switched on monitor #2 and there was X. (This occurs even if I just have one monitor plugged in, I have to move it to the other socket to see X)

I solved it by editing xorg.conf and changing:

from:
    BusID "PCI:4:0:0"
to:
    BusID "PCI:5:0:0"

Other info.
Video cards: 2x Gigabyte Geforce 6200TC
CPU AMD64 3000+

email me if you want anymore info, as I don't plan to follow this report.
