I guess it is the best to report it upstream but could you please check if it still happens with this unofficial package http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/intel/hardy-i386/xserver-xorg- video-intel_2.3.1-1ubuntu1~bwh3_i386.deb (AMD64 http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/intel/hardy-amd64/xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.3.1-1ubuntu1~bwh3_amd64.deb) of a newer -intel driver.
To install it you have to remove the old i810 driver before. sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-i810 xserver-xorg-video-all And please regenerate your xorg.conf just to be sure. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg If you want to reset everything do the follow commands. sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-intel sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-all If it still happens with the newer driver attach a current /var/log/Xorg.0.log after playing a video file. ** Also affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel Importance: Undecided Status: New -- video playback is distorted with -intel driver (i945) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147081 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
