Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
I am using 8.04 and version 1:7.3+10ubuntu9 of xorg package.
I have a VAIO VGN-N250FH and i'm using an external Dell 22'' monitor,
with the laptop screen switched off from the "Screen and Resolution"
tool, i have Extra effects switched ON. From time to time without any
special pattern my screen gets completely GRAY or BLACK. Music still
working on the background but i'm unable to do anything else except
CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to kill X, when the gdm restarts the screen remains
BLACK.
Once it went black when adding a tab to firefox, another time when
opening a menu in Rhythmbox, and another time when going to Next Song in
it.
I have an intel 950 card.
