Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-core
Summary: I just installed the recent update to xserver-xorg-core (Version 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu8.3) and the suspend on my laptop stopped working. Steps to repeat: I would open the lid, type my password, and my session would open, but after a few seconds the whole system would freeze up, I couldn't even use ctrl-alt-backspace! Temporary Fix: I solved the problem by forcing the previous version in Synaptic (select the package, then go to Package - Force Version and select the previous version in the list), however I am a little concerned about doing that as it was an "Important Security Update" fixing things such as memory corruption. Additional Information: Microsoft recently did a press release about how corrupted header information in Word and Excel files that corrupted system memory was a big security risk, but I don't know if those are related. There was another post about an update to version 8.2 and how it broke Java applications (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=671020) but apparently update 8.3 fixed that, I also don't know if they are related. ** Affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Visibility changed to: Public -- xserver-xorg-core update breaks suspend in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
