[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1897273] Re: booting ubuntu groovy daily unusuable if left

2020-09-25 Thread Chris Guiver
this is filed against a wrong package I know sorry...

on hitting the power-button to shutdown pc, the screen goes black & I
get a "Ubuntu" and twirly (plymouth) screen as occurs during boot
(before Ubuntu colored background & unusable screen).

Issue only occurs during actual session

- currently I've not fully worked out the issue here, but I'll refine it

  booting Ubuntu daily on
  dell [optiplex] 990 (i7-2600, 16gb, nvidia geforce gt 6600 gt)
  
- results in a cursor on a window, with nothing that responds. No usable
- session, but screen is there, background a solid Ubuntu color, with
- normal cursor; alas nothing more.
+ Media validation occurs as expected, passes the Ubuntu logo is as

  I wonder if it's the screensaver kicking in that screws up the session,

  the whole time so I've not worked out pattern.

2020-09-25 Thread Chris Guiver
I left the machine (2nd run) and came & typed this bug report on my
primary machine with real keyboard  (other end of the house).

On return to the pc, the screen is changing as if screensaver has kicked
in, and it's working (alas very slowly, black & white and image is not
as it should be), but it was changing..

On moving mouse, the (what I assume is screensaver) stops, image becomes
static and tiny bits of color appear..

(color is some red top left, and slither of purple I assume is intended
background but only tiny slithers...
