Starting in November 2014 Ubuntu X windows screwed up with VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) making Wallpaper badly hashed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1507255 Then a couple months later even Ubuntu text badly garbled, illegible. Workarond was:
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "AccelMethod" "uxa" EndSection So in every install since Nov. 2014 I've been making that change. As of March 2016, that change screws up X windows and can't get desktop. Voila, not needed, Xwindows now running fine. That took Ubuntu a year and a half to fix. Wonder how long ubuntu Xwindows will stay fixted.... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1507255 Title: Garbled graphics in Wily with Intel GMA4500 chip To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1507255/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
