I don't have enough memory (640M) to update Live CD to latest, but have now tried with alpha-5. There are reproducible screen problems with alpha-5 (e.g. hang after resizing a window), where everything seems fine in alpha-4. I have not seen the screen corruption in alpha-4 either, but attach an example from alpha-5.
* alpha-4 live CD - fine * alpha-5 live CD - screen corruption and hangs (apparently doing something with dd and rsyslogd) * current HD Karmic (with DRI off) - screen corruption * current HD Karmic (with DRI on) - screen corruption and hangs On the hard drive, in fact I had installed and uninstalled the fglrx driver earlier on, under Hardy, as an attempt to fix the lockups in bug 404331, but not since upgrading to intrepid. I followed instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver and there are no packages, but a few files related to fglrx. I tried both methods to reinstall with no effect on the 'tartan' corruption, and in fact went further in purging libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri and xserver-xorg-core, and then reinstalling ubuntu-desktop. Anything other packages it might be worth purging? hald? BTW on that wiki page, I think sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx* should be sudo apt-get remove --purge 'fglrx*' ** Attachment added: "sometimes corruption affects whole window, sometimes part" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/31403765/Screenshot-livecd-alpha-5.png -- screen corruption and segfaults with radeon m6 ly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/421842 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
