On Xubuntu 12.04, screen crashed exactly like shown on this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuL9zjaGakM&feature=youtu.be. It only happened _after_ I logged out & tried to log in from login screen. It didn't happened right after booting, where user is logged in automatically (without prompting user for password).
A similar solution to the one suggested by candtalan (just above this post) worked for me: In a terminal type sudo nano /etc/default/grub find the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" change it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="i915.modeset=0 quiet splash" Type CTRL O to write the file Type CTRL X to exit Then type sudo update-grub ----- Taken from here: http://askubuntu.com/a/37679/72828 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/949130 Title: Display corrupts and flashes when changing resolution on GMA X3000 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/949130/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
