I was plagued with this same problem after upgrading to 10.04. Machine is a Dell GX260 with an Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01)
Random crashes, always required an reboot to recover, got so bad I stopped using the machine for a while. Googled for a solution, got one which seems to fix it. Open a terminal & enter the following:- echo options i915 modeset=1 | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf Reboot the box. Now using the GX260 daily, no crashes since. -- Xorg crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566324 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
