Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-ati
When I switch between virtual X screens with ctrl+alt+arrow, sometimes the entire system freezes totally. It does not respond to keys or mouse, any music playing is stopped etc. The windows on the old desktop are cleared and the new ones are drawn with their widget background colors, but they don't contain any graphics or other content. Sometimes this happens several times per day, but sometimes everything works fine for days. I have been unable to trigger this bug in any other way than switching between virtual desktops. I have a Thinkpad T30 with the following graphics chip: 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500] ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Switching between workspaces causes a hard freeze https://launchpad.net/bugs/54827 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
