Aaron Staley, as per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops- and-netbooks/thinkpad-t-series-laptops/thinkpad-t440p an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (2.34). 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 ** Tags added: bios-outdated-2.34 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479627 Title: X boots to black screen with cursor Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Unable to use computer when I try booting with monitors connected to it. dmesg indicates that nouveau is crashing I'm having many problems with ubuntu 15.04 that may all be related: https://askubuntu.com/questions/651156/cannot-use-monitor-plugged-into-dock-with-thinkpad-t440p-on-ubuntu-15-04 https://askubuntu.com/questions/651920/applications-unreliably-gaining-focus-on-mouse-click-in-kubuntu-15-04?lq=1 https://askubuntu.com/questions/648616/external-monitor-not-working-after-docking#comment935896_648616 This was not an issue on ubuntu 14.10 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+7ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.19.0-25.26-generic 3.19.8-ckt2 Uname: Linux 3.19.0-25-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.17.2-0ubuntu1.1 Architecture: amd64 Date: Wed Jul 29 21:59:27 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-03-16 (501 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release amd64 (20131016.1) ProcEnviron: TERM=linux PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: xorg Symptom: display Title: Xorg freeze UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to vivid on 2015-07-19 (10 days ago) --- .proc.driver.nvidia.registry: Binary: "" .proc.driver.nvidia.version: NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 346.96 Sun Aug 23 22:29:21 PDT 2015 GCC version: gcc version 4.9.2 (Ubuntu 4.9.2-10ubuntu13) ApportVersion: 2.17.2-0ubuntu1.5 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: KDE DistUpgraded: 2015-07-19 13:17:36,647 DEBUG enabling apt cron job DistroCodename: vivid DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 DistroVariant: kubuntu GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0416] (rev 06) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:221d] NVIDIA Corporation GK208M [GeForce GT 730M] [10de:1290] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:221d] InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-03-16 (563 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release amd64 (20131016.1) LightdmGreeterLogOld: QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory QFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: /var/lib/lightdm/.config/ibus/bus Bus::open: Can not get ibus-daemon's address.
