Many improvements have been made to the ati/radeon driver since your last report, and your issue might have been fixed. Can you please: 1. Test with the newest Ubuntu release (8.04.1) if you haven't already 2. Try the development version "intrepid" (8.10). You can use the live CD from the latest alpha release and update the ati/radeon drivers using "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati" (afterwards, log out and in again to use the updated driver) 3. Additionally, try the last versions available on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgOnTheEdge. Download the xserver-xorg-video- ati and xserver-xorg-video-radeon packages and install them using "sudo dpkg -i <packages>.deb".
If your issue is still present, we would be very grateful if you can report it to the upstream bug tracker on http://bugs.freedesktop.org (select Product=xorg, Component=Driver/Radeon), attaching all relevant information like your Xorg.0.log. We are of course happy to help you with this procedure. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Tormod Volden (tormodvolden) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- XPRESS 200M 5A42 with DRI: x turns backlight off, freezes keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/163432 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
