My IBM G40 acts the same way - except I do not know any sequence of events to guarentee the event / it appears to be random. The work around is to reboot. I believe 7.04 worked OK, and only 7.10 presents the bug -- but I can't be certain.
I am slightly troubled by new (to me) behavior in switching between VCs. I now find both ALT+CTRL+Fx and (new?) ALT+Fx work to switch between ascii consoles. Upon reaching F7 console the display remains black with cursor and is responsive to the keyboard. There is no line prompt, and certainly the entered text is not responded to -- even special sequences except the CTRL+ALT+Fx does switch back to an ascii console. There is no screensaver or non-default setting for the GUI, and I suspect it does not matter which desktop environment is in use at the time of leaving the GUI (I use Gnome, KDE, and XMI(?)). I've been living with this behavior for a month(?) and all available updates available today are applied (weekly since upgrade). Please advise if I can supply specific data. -- ctrl-alt-f7 doesn't always return to valid X session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/162252 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
