@Brian Rogers Many thanks - I'd just like to report that your patch (linux-image-2.6.34-v9patch-generic) appears to be working perfectly for me, with my i855 HP Compaq Nx5000. I'm not trying anything fancy regarding video - but can report that the system now starts normally, no freeze during

@Brian Rogers Edit to above - no Ubuntu splash on subsequent restarts (any visual effects setting), though there was on the first - but I wasn't getting the splash with the Mainline kernel, either, so I don't miss it anyway. Best David -- MASTER: [i855] GPU lockup (apport-crash)

@Thoer (#162 etc/usw). Many, many thanks for that effort. Slight bug initially evident on my i8xx machine, in that application (eg Firefox) may open without showing the app bar at the top containing its minimize, maximize and close symbols, and closing under file-close still leaves the app

@Brian Rogers (#145) - I may be misunderstanding the word 'distro', but Peppermint Linux (otherwise ugh-for-me) is not affected (kernel 2.6.32-22, if I remember correctly) and rcs 5,6.7 of Mainline Lucid version is also not affected - at least, they work fine with my i855 display. @Steve

Sorry - commented in the duplicate bug... Latest proposed update (lucid-proposed) seems to fix the main problem of non-bootability due to black screen; but it does not fix the (associated?) problem of Cheese Webcam Booth crashing the system. At least Lucid Linux version xx.x.22 is now usable
