Dan, I think the problem is solved by the mainline kernel, you could try the latest kernel from the following link. http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/current/ ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = AceLan Kao (acelankao) -- You received this bug

Yes! It works! I can't even tell you how relieved I feel without sounding like a lunatic. Here are the details of the experience: 1. added the ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa repository to apt-get 2. installed linux-generic and linux-generic-headers version 2.6.39-0.4~20110419 3. logged in using the no

For the record, I tried out the intel driver from the elderberry ppa using the older kernel (the one from natty beta2) and it did not fix the problem. I still got: [ 63.990093] [drm:ironlake_crtc_disable] *ERROR* failed to disable transcoder [ 164.540158] [drm:intel_dp_complete_link_train]

Hi Dan, Good to hear the mainline kernel solved it. Would you be willing to do some additional testing to isolate which specific patch fixed it? If so, the kernel team might be able to backport that fix to include in natty. Directions for isolating kernel patches via git bisection are

I gave it a shot, but I must admit I'm a bit lost since I'm straddling between two kernel versions 2.6.38 and 2.6.39. I'm not quite sure where to go. I arrived at git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-oneiric.git. I installed various kernel builds from the 2.6.39 line. Here are my results:

Hi Dan, You mentioned in your description specifically that the issue is seen as of the 2011-04-16 nightly; by this comment do you mean to imply that prior to 4-16 this issue is not reproducible? If that is the case, please tell me the most recent working version; I can then examine what

I experience the same problem in Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick) and 11.04 Beta2 (Natty). I tried the nightly because it included fixes for the touchpad and sound. However, the display problem remained. I don't think it works in any very of Ubuntu to date. I'll try your suggestions and report back. --
