I have the same problem on a Gateway MX6028 (same video card). Some more details: - Video runs fine if nothing else happens on the screen; - As soon as I e.g. change the volume (press volume +/-, which is a shortcut to kmix), switch to Firefox or Thunderbird, etc., the segfault is generated and ttys are not available anymore.
After the segfault, X tries to restart and it generates a new segfault every time. The only way to stop it is to press ctrl-alt-del and reboot (in other words, the keyboard seems to be still answering). This problem appeared after my upgrade to 8.10 (kubuntu). Before this, I was running KDE4 on 8.04. I produced this problem on an upgraded partition and on a newly formatted partition. -- segfault/lockup while playing a video after upgrade 8.04->8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293113 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
