[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 949130] Re: Display corrupts and flashes when changing resolution on GMA X3000

2012-05-03 Thread candtalan

I raised a bug which I think is a duplicate of this bug. Mine is #993405 and is
now marked as a duplicate of this bug.
In my machine (details at my bug entry) the display got impossible and I was
considering a reinstall, but I then remembered I had used nomodeset
successfully on other old machines.

I used nomodeset and it worked! :-)

This is in a machine in which the 12.04 desktop 32 bit live cd worked fine!
even apparently using 3D also. However, after install, I think 3D was no
longer available, and although the default high resolution of the display
worked ok, the user wanted a lower res (!) and it was after choosing lower res
that the display really screwed up, and there was no going back (doh!)
At least I could not find a way.
But use of nomodeset in the boot string (grub menu visible, press e, and add
nomodeset in appropriate place)
and then making the change permanent /etc/default/grub (add nomodeset
appropriately, and then update-grub)
all worked.
So although for me this bug was a complete show stopper, the nomodeset
workaround means I now have no more problem.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 993405] [NEW] Much screen corruption 12.04 updated after change screen resolution

2012-05-02 Thread candtalan

Public bug reported:

(Not sure if it is xorg)

This looks very very similar to  existing bug #949130
The linked video in that bug shows exactly th eproblem, good video.
I am simply filing this  here because the machine is mostly unusable and a more 
clever relationship to the existing bug is not possible  for me here.

Details:
New install  ubuntu 12.04 on dell dimension E520, went ok, screen res  as 
installed 1024x [1000 ish] good however, user wanted larger text and icons = 
lower screen res. At lower screen res  the display then totally unusable, with 
no way to get back!! I did not realise what caused it a  the time. I then used 
recovery mode to install Lubuntu desktop, which installed ok and looked ok. Byt 
 again te large icions were requested and  like an unkowing dolt I reduced te 
screen res, and bam, totaly unusabl;e screen display AGAIN. No way of getting 
back to the high res which was working. 
After initial ubuntu install (which btw was a warm install from cd  but special 
in that the home directory was not set to be formattted so home data was 
preserved) I almost immediately did updates but only a few  available at this 
early date.
After Lubuntu desktop install again I did updates but  with hindsight I think 
th eculprit is th ereduction of screen resolution, or at least its change, 
which in this case was always  to reduced res.

NOTE
I am filing this bug using  i think open box desktop (not ubuntu and not 
Lubuntu) because the others hav edisplays (now) which are totally un usable.

Note
It would be *very* useful if I knew a way to reset the screen res to default or 
high res using CL from recovery mode, but I dont.

2012-03-26 Thread candtalan

12.04 beta 1 fully updated.
 The machine supports unity 2d only

A few recent updates installed, then I tried cheese webcam app which I
know does not work (I had raised a bug) just to check it still was not
working, then I closed the inactive cheese app and then I opened
camorama webcam app, which I know works ok. Then before I could also
close the camorama app I saw the crash report.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 762135] Re: [i865] natty - display heavily corrupted

2011-08-02 Thread candtalan

@ praveen 
I think I already posted machine details in earlier posts here?
Sorry I only use Ubuntu at present and have not tried Fedora or Gnome3 items 
afaik.

When you say #63 you would like to see it,  do you ask me to post
screenshot of Ubuntu alpha2 on the problem machine? Or are you saying
you await your own trial of alpha2?

2011-07-21 Thread candtalan

FWIW I am running oneiric alpha2 and it works ok in the problem machine.
The alpha2 image is oversize so for a live session a dvd or a USB is
needed. I installed it too, still ok, and subsequent updates are also
looking good. hth

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 762135] Re: [i865] natty beta2 desktop live session - display heavily corrupted

2011-04-24 Thread candtalan

I again ran the natty beta2 live CD but this time I used F6 from the initial 
live CD boot menu and edited the boot string to include
nomodeset

as it happens, I also chose to mark nomodeset in the F6 options, and I also 
removed 
quiet splash
from the string also, if it makes any difference I don't know.

However, the Live CD then booted and displayed OK and ran ok in what
looked like classic gnome, without display corruption.

(No sign of fancy graphics I guess, even though the machine is capable
of them on previous ubuntu versions)
