I'd rather post this on the upstream bug but Bryce's link to it looks broken.
Well, I am afraid it is still an issue in Ubuntu. More of this, considering the date (2009-12-19) Bryce made his comment of a fix released, it looks like the this fix actually brought this problem to my PC. I have Asus P4PE motherboard, ATI Radeon 9550 (RV350 AS) graphic card and Ubuntu 8.04 installed. I've never experienced this problem until recently. And I am running PC with the mentioned above configuration from the date Hardy was released. These are almost 2 years for now. I do not remember exactly but it showed up on my PC at the very first time about 1-2 months ago. It happened from that time only 3 times always in the middle of a session, all 3 times while PC was just idle. The monitor goes black, "no signal" on monitor the keyboard was locked 2 times of 3 completely, and I had to shutdown by pushing a power button on a tower. The last time keyboard responded to Ctrl-Delete and restarted PC. Then I could continue to work as normal. My first shot was actually a hardware problem. But after some troubleshooting, further investigation and research I came here. And here I think my problem is. That's a pity, since I would prefer Open Source driver over proprietary one. -- [RV280 9250] No signal to monitor in 8.04 unless NoDRI used https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293698 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
