While waiting for my milk to warm up before my 6 month nap, I found one more thing. Seems that xf86-video-intel 2.5.0 could solve our problems. See http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-October/039555.html Anybody want to give this a try? I'm obviously not the one, in the context of a

From a live boot in single user mode, removing compiz and compiz-core followed by init 2 works here and may outperform turning off DRI. Certainly no worse. Oh well, at least it's not an LTS release. Wake me in 6 months :) -- Hard crash entering X with Intel 82845G chipset

I have an intel 82845G/GL intergrated graphics board with a 2.6 p4 celeron. I had the similar black screen with only the cursor working. This is on both the live cd and a full install. The problem for me was compiz. I installed using ubiquity as that loaded fine. Then on reboot, I hit esc on the

Interesting. Removing compiz had no effect for me except for displaying a different color other than black during the freeze. Disabling DRI is the best workaround that we've found so far I think. However, novice users may just give up and switch to a different OS :/ -- Hard crash entering X

Yah, it's too bad they couldn't get a fix in sooner, but it was probably more risky to introduce a new upstream version before release. I'm not even sure this has been fixed upstream yet. However, I'm sure it will be resolved soon and pushed to Intrepid as an update. I am running with DRI

Turning off DRI instead of setting NoAccel does increase performance on my system too. I can now log in again and it's a little faster, but it's not nearly as good as direct rendering. -- Hard crash entering X with Intel 82845G chipset https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285250 You received this

Yes, that's exactly the difference. Finally realized that what I should be doing after copying over your xorg.conf while in single mode is an init 2. Doh! Finally running. BTW, I can log out and in again without crashing. But I see what you mean about screen speed. Like ripples in a pond. Hope

I have attached my xorg.conf. It allows normal login and usage of the gnome desktop except that hardware acceleration is disabled. That produces very slow screen redraws, unnecessary CPU utilization, and compiz won't run (among other things). It's a bad workaround, but it functions until this

Finally managed to set up scripting to dump logfile rather than trying from kbd which is dead after startx runs. Rather different Xorg.0.log results show up. This is probably the most useful output, since it's for the vanilla xorg.conf. ** Attachment added: Xorg.0.log
