[Bug 880882] Re: X starts with garbled screen, restarting X from cli fixes
Jan, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

[Bug 880882] Re: X starts with garbled screen, restarting X from cli fixes
This is quite an old bug indeed. The system in question was upgraded to ubuntu 13.04 or 13.10 (don't remember exactly) which resulted in a black screen when X was supposed to have started and an unusable system. I did not investigate this deeply but instead did a fresh install of Xubuntu 13.10, which worked without problems. In the fresh install the default video driver setup works out of the box, with the only problem that 3d accelleration is not supported (but that's a known problem I guess). (Note: running ubuntu 13.10 from a live usb environment also appeared to work out of the box, although it was as expected very slow.) So this bug can be closed as far as I'm concerned. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/880882 Title: X starts with garbled screen, restarting X from cli fixes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/880882/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 880882] Re: X starts with garbled screen, restarting X from cli fixes
Additional info: I was not entirely correct about the poulsbo/psb_gfx blacklisting combinations. Poulsbo blacklisted and psb_gfx enabled results in a garbled screen that isn't even fixed by restarting X. All other combinations result in a garbled X that can be fixed by restarting X. There is a visible speed difference from enabling poulsbo. A third bug I had after upgrading to oneric is #880865, resume failure under kernel 3.0.0, but that appears to be unrelated. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/880882 Title: X starts with garbled screen, restarting X from cli fixes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/880882/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
