** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel I've got a Thinkpad X40 with a “Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device” the driver from xserver-xorg-video-i810 worked for me all the time. Yesterday I discovered xserver-xorg-video-intel and installed it. When I rebooted my laptop today. Starting X resulted in very strange behavior. Most times it just froze with a black screen, once pressing any key resulted in strange letters being printed on the screen, sometimes it brought up a login screen, even though I use autologin, logging in resulted in a frozen black screen. After changing i810 in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to vesa I was able to log in again. I uninstalled xserver-xorg-video-intel and reinstalled xserver- xorg-video-i810 and changed vesa back to i810. Now everything is working again. ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Fri Apr 20 13:50:16 2007 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 7.04 Uname: Linux fundstueck 2.6.20-15-386 #2 Sun Apr 15 07:34:00 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux + + Impact: Affects users of intel 855 graphics. Causes black screen on VT + switch (including initial boot up). As this can prevent use of Ubuntu, + it is considered a critical bug and should be backported to Gutsy. + + Solution: Modifies the existing patch 04_fix_hw_restore.diff to + conditionalize when pipes are restored so they don't get restored while + in VGA pipeline mode. This driver has been tested by over half a dozen + people and has been present in hardy for about a week. + + Patch: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10316259/xserver-xorg-video- + intel_2.1.1-0ubuntu10.debdiff + + Steps to reproduce: + 1. Start Ubuntu + 2. Black screen / freeze once X starts. + 3. If not, then switch to vt1 and back, or do suspend/resume + 4. Black screen / freeze + + Regression potential: Low, as this is a small patch that affects only + i830-class hardware. It has been tested on gutsy and rolled out into + hardy without any subsequent bug reports
