[Bug 266911] Re: Black screen after clicking to start a Guest Session

2008-11-05 Thread Thomas McGowan
I'm having the same problem too; selecting the 'Guest session' causes
the screen to go blank and the PC becomes unresponsive. The only option
is to power it off; logging in via SSH doesn't work - I can't even ping
it once it locks up.

Like Robert above, I've got a dual-head setup with fglrx. I'm running a
clean install of Intrepid.

[Bug 145501] Re: laptop screen remains on with external monitor and lid closed

2009-01-04 Thread Thomas McGowan
Hi Bryce,

Like Fred, I tested the xserver-xorg-video-intel -
2:2.5.1-1ubuntu5~intrepid but unfortunately the bug was still there.

(Apologies for not being able to test this sooner; I've been away over
the holidays...)

[Bug 145501] laptop screen remains on with external monitor and lid closed

2007-09-27 Thread Thomas McGowan
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Hi,

I'm running an up-to-date version of Gutsy on Dell Latitude D500 laptop,
which has an intel graphics card.

With the intel driver (version 2:2.1.1-0ubuntu3), installed by default,
the laptop's LCD panel remains on when the laptop is used with an
external monitor connected and the lid closed, using a docking station.
This is obviously wasting power and making it quite warm!

The laptop panel is off when GRUB loads, but is switched on when X
starts and the login screen appears. Using the key combinations to cycle
CRT/LCD display has no effect.

As a workaround, i have installed 'i810switch' and run the command
'i810switch lcd off' after login.

This problem does NOT occur using Kubuntu Feisty, with the i810 driver -
with this the laptop lcd remains off if booted with lid closed and
external monitor attached.

[Bug 71839] Re: In Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft: After install nvidia-glx and setup the system for the new driver, the Hibernate and Suspend don't resume video anymore with a nVidia GeForce 6200 AGP video car

2007-01-30 Thread Thomas McGowan
The additional information requested is included in the attached text
file.

Strangely, I couldn't get the PC to hibernate this time - so this output
is following a suspend and (failed) resume. Not sure why it will no
longer try to hibernate as I don't think I've changed anything, but
perhaps some update has done something since the original bug report..?

If it would help, I can always try getting the same info on a clean
install with/without the nvidia-glx drivers as I have a free partition.

Hope this helps - let me know if you need any more info.

[Bug 71839] Re: In Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft: After install nvidia-glx and setup the system for the new driver, the Hibernate and Suspend don't resume video anymore with a nVidia GeForce 6200 AGP video car

2006-11-19 Thread Thomas McGowan
I'm having what sounds to be the same problem. With a clean (Kubuntu)
Edgy install, suspend/hibernate worked OK. After installing 'nvidia-
glx', they don't work - suspend/hibernate appears to take place, but on
resume the screen just stays blank and the system is unresponsive.

I'm using an NVidia GeForce4 MX 4000 AGP 8x (with 64Mb ram I think), on
a machine with an AMD Athlon XP 1700+ and 1Gb ram. The motherboard is an
Epox EP-8RGA with nVidia nForce 2 chipset.

Jeremy,

I no longer have the laptop & docking station that I was using when I
originally reported this bug, so unfortunately I can't test it.
