Pressing Ctrl+Alt+F7 to get back to previous GUI session brought up the corrupted graphics. This is only happening if the OS has previously been asleep, if I don't run the pm-suspend I am able to switch between the old sessions and new startx session without it being corrupted.

This happens in LiveCD mode or installed and all versions of Kubuntu/Ubuntu/Gbunutu that I have tested, all of them are the same result. This has stopped moving to Linux when I need it most (Windows 8/8.1 is terrible) I had reported that I thought it was due to dual graphics (Switchable) but I've disabled the intel graphics in BIOS and the problem persisted. I think this is a Kernel level problem or perhaps xOrg related. I can offer no other information as the only thing I can do is reboot the system and disable sleep entirely. I don't think my system could be the only one getting this problem, so hopefully someone with more experience in reporting bugs can figure this out so that the final 13.10 will work for me :( --- ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: ubuntu 6220 F.... pulseaudio CasperVersion: 1.331 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 LiveMediaBuild: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130424) MachineType: System manufacturer System Product Name MarkForUpload: True Package: linux (not installed) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG= SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 nouveaufb ProcKernelCmdLine: bootkbd=us console-setup/layoutcode=en_US console-setup/variantcode=nodeadkeys locale=us_us persistent noprompt cdrom-detect/try-usb=true file=/cdrom/preseed/username.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz splash -- ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-19.29-generic 3.8.8 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.8.0-19-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.8.0-19-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.106 RfKill: 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no Tags: raring Uname: Linux 3.8.0-19-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo dmi.bios.date: 11/09/2012 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 3603 dmi.board.asset.tag: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.board.name: MAXIMUS IV GENE-Z/GEN3 dmi.board.vendor: ASUSTeK Computer INC. dmi.board.version: Rev 1.xx dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Asset-1234567890 dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Chassis Manufacture dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr3603:bd11/09/2012:svnSystemmanufacturer:pnSystemProductName:pvrSystemVersion:rvnASUSTeKComputerINC.:rnMAXIMUSIVGENE-Z/GEN3:rvrRev1.xx:cvnChassisManufacture:ct3:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: System Product Name dmi.product.version: System Version dmi.sys.vendor: System manufacturer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1224221/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
