I have the same problem on an Intel Inspiron 1100 that has an 845G. However, if I remove "splash" from the grub line that boots the computer, it can successfully start X nearly 100% of the time. So, a work around might be to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove "splash" from the boot line.
Also, Fedora 8 can boot the computer with Fedora's graphical startup and always gets X to start. -- X freezes after first boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151044 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
