[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 109934] Re: Black and white S-video output only on PAL TVs with intel video driver
OK, I think I found the ultimate workaround. :) If you hate running randr all the time, as much as I do, you can try this: 1.- Make sure your 'Section Device' contains this: Driver intel 2.- Add the following section: Section Monitor Identifier TV Option TV Format PAL EndSection That's it. Every time you turn your computer on, you'll see everything with color on your TV. See the attachment for a sample xorg.conf file.

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 359392] Re: [i965] X freezes starting on April 3rd
Jgull8502 said: I have a Dell m1330 Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c). I've been holding off upgrading because of the intel bugs. I'm wondering if it's relatively safe to upgrade to 9.04 now. I don't mind doing some configuring but I'm wondering if there's a condensed list of things I can try if I experience this freezing. I have the same hardware and, as I reported here recently, this bug is solved with UXA: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/UxaTesting UXA works perfectly here. Just add that line to you X config, reboot and enjoy your Ubuntu install. UXA fixes all the bugs of the previous driver: Display corruptions and X freezes. Plus, it doesn't introduce _any_ bugs. So, I'd really recommend it to you. -- Gustavo Narea xri://=Gustavo. | Tech blog: =Gustavo/(+blog)/tech ~ About me: =Gustavo/about | -- [i965] X freezes starting on April 3rd https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359392 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Forgot to add that UXA works flawlessly, it doesn't introduce another bug. It just works like a charm (I've been using it for one week, played 3D games, used 3D effects, etc). -- (Needs UXA) painting artifacts after qt4.5 upgrade on intel chipset https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/338669 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 375358] Re: [Jaunty] My system freezes several times a day; Ctrl+Alt+Backspace doesn't work.
Downgrading xserver-xorg-video-intel as explained here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 fixes the freezes, but introduces more bugs (Can't play 3D games anymore, window transparencies don't work anymore, etc). Should I include the Dell Ubuntu Project in this bug? ** Also affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [Jaunty] My system freezes several times a day; Ctrl+Alt+Backspace doesn't work. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/375358 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
