I was suffering from Ubuntu logo loop through startup.

I searched for solutions and I edited GRUB's option to access Ubuntu with nomodeset and the loop issue was gone.

But every restart I face the same problem. I have applied many solutions and the display was interrupted and I cannot find my display device on the Additional Drivers tab.

Ubuntu 19.04

Graphics Card 2048MD ATI Radeon HD 5400 Series

Same issue as mine, I am currently using "nomodeset" in Grub as work-around.

Edit /etc/default/grub

Add "nomodeset" in the kernel options

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset"

Save in your editor (CTRL-X in nano)

Then update Grub

sudo update-grub

Then just reboot..

This is a work-around, HW acceleration will be disabled. Unfortunately (in my case at least), this is a bug in Linux Kernel, KMS is supposed to work but is does not, and new proprietary drivers no longer support these old cards.
