Hello, yesterday, after having upgraded to the above mentioned new version of xserver-xorg-video-intel, I was not able anymore to use my external monitor attached via DVI of my laptop (a Fujitsu-Siemens S7010).
The behaviour is that once I switch to the external monitor (TMDS), xserver blocks (using 99% of cpu time) and the screen goes black. Switchingfrom TMDS back to LVDS is not possible anymore. Also, killing the xserver does not bring the laptop back into a usable state. Only reboot is possible. Going back to the previous version of the intel driver (2:2.3.2-2, of current tesing) solved the problem. My laptop has the Intel 855GM display controller: $ lspci ... 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) ... My xorg.conf is attached. _______________________________________________________________________ Jetzt neu!
