Alex's issue is fixed in xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.2.0+git20080107-1ubuntu1:
I have the same hardware as Alex (thinkpad r31) and I was experiencing the same issue. X was using the vesa driver (poorly: fwiw toggling screen expansion fn-f8 would make it usable at 800x600). I updated today to xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.2.0+git20080107-1ubuntu1 and now X works correctly using the intel driver (didn't try i810 as intel was autodetected). I can't tell if this is the same issue as Dirk so I haven't commented on the bug 14065 upstream. Now X works fine (modulu exa as in #177492: I changed my xorg.conf to use XAA and now X works as well as it does on my Gentoo partition, and as well as it did in Gutsy). -- xserver starts but display is corrupt (i830M,845G) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/114331 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
