I have the same problem I guess. I'm using a Radeon X800 with chip R420.
Setting the nomodeset option makes the system boot, but there is no 3D
acceleration. Which is pretty much a show stopper nowadays. It used to
work fine after all, before the kernel and xorg people decided to push
unfinished stuff on users.
I'm using Lucid with kernel 2.6.32-24-generic. I also tried kernels from
the mainline ppa: 2.6.32-0206321708-generic and 2.6.34-020634-generic.
Same problem.
Please fix this! It really frustrating and doesn't make a good
impression, if the first run of your new Ubuntu just freezes on boot...
And this bug seems to affect quite a few systems with older Radeon
cards. My system is not too exotic I think and I don't quite understand
how a 4 month old LTS release doesn't even boot on common hardware!
Leave alone being fixed in a reasonable time...
