Still no luck. I did the following tests: A: Downgraded as follows (using Brians PPA): libdrm-intel1 2.4.14-1ubuntu1 -> 1:2.4.11-2+karmic3 libdrm2 2.4.14-1ubuntu1 -> 1:2.4.11-2+karmic3 xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.9.0-1ubuntu2 -> 5:2.8.0-2-gb0aa94f Result: Freeze
B: As A, plus enabling KMS by making a file in /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf with the following content: options i915 modeset=1 Result: Freeze C: As B, plus replacing xserver-xorg-video-intel with the version from comment #70 Result: Freeze Doesn't look like we can use the same solutions as for bug 456902 and bug 496187. -- [i855GM] Freeze shortly after X startup on Intel i855 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447892 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
