It has something to do with console change not with suspend. So the easiest way confirm the issue is to run a video with Totem (xv) and close it. Then switch to console and back. If you are lucky you got no gray rectangles (Bug # 127101) and come back to desktop. Now start another video with Totem, which should have a black video window, let it run for some seconds and then close it. System should freeze. Maybe you have to wait some seconds longer for video play if nothing happens.
** Summary changed: - new Intel driver freezes system on video play after suspend + new Intel driver freezes system on video play after changing to console ** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel - Thanks to the overlay fix video playing works fine under compiz with new Intel driver but after suspend, which works fine, every xv player shows only a black or blue screen. The sound is working but there is no image. After some seconds, normally after closing the Video player, the laptop freezes completely that even the hardware mute button doesn't work anymore (led doesn't flash). Both problems happen without compiz too but it seems that it takes a little bit longer or another video start after suspend to crash the system. If I don't start any video after suspend Laptop doesn't seem to freeze (independent of compiz). - The freeze isn't similar to the Bug #127101, which often crashes my Laptop too, since it happens without switching video mode and the desktop is still watchable (no gray rectangles). + Thanks to the overlay fix video playing works fine under compiz with new Intel driver but after changin to console every xv player shows only a black or blue screen.

I hadn't this problem with i810 at least before trying new Intel driver. I am using Sony TX2 laptop with i915 graphic card and current Gutsy. - - Is there any possibility to get the Intel driver without the Overlay fix - to check if they are connected? -- new Intel driver freezes system on video play after changing to console https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
