Bug Description

Please add ati xpress1250 to the kernel drm KMS blacklist.

Following the same request for i830: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/542208
And the testing for atiX1250 from: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/558378

Testing has shown that KMS support for ati x1250 is inadequate, often resulting in a regression where the system hangs during boot up. Testers have found that booting with nomodeset option generally tends to restore the system functionality (up to beta1; see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/558378)
