jiffy, as per http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=3765010&swLangOid=8&swEnvOid=1093 an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (F.20). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?
If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status New. Otherwise, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-f.20 ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1297599 Title: [i965gme] GPU hang Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: HW Model: Hewlett-Packard HP 550 1) Ubuntu Trusty Thar 14.04 2) xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.910-0ubuntu1 3) expected behaviour: showing desktop after bootup 4) instead: boots until after lightdm seemed having done its work and the screen goes from black to off ProblemType: Crash DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.910-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-16.36-generic 3.13.5 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-16-generic x86_64 .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.13.3-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 Chipset: i965gme CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true Date: Wed Mar 26 03:08:50 2014 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: trusty DistroVariant: ubuntu DuplicateSignature: [i965gme] GPU lockup IPEHR: 0x02000000 Ubuntu 14.04 ExecutablePath: /usr/share/apport/apport-gpu-error-intel.py GpuHangFrequency: Continuously GpuHangReproducibility: Occurs more often under certain circumstances GpuHangStarted: Today GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation Mobile GME965/GLE960 Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2a12] (rev 0c) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:3618] Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:3618] InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-03-07 (19 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Alpha amd64 (20140306) InterpreterPath: /usr/bin/python3.4 MachineType: Hewlett-Packard HP 550 ProcCmdline: /usr/bin/python3 /usr/share/apport/apport-gpu-error-intel.py ProcEnviron: ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-16-generic root=UUID=3717c8b2-d8b8-45eb-9070-02b70a0f9bb5 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 RelatedPackageVersions: xserver-xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu8 libdrm2 2.4.52-1 xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.910-0ubuntu1 SourcePackage: xserver-xorg-video-intel Title: [i965gme] GPU lockup IPEHR: 0x02000000 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: dmi.bios.date: 01/19/2009 dmi.bios.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.bios.version: 68MVU Ver.
