** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel What I report here is probably two ugly X-crash bugs in the new stable release of kubuntu. The reason why I file a new bug is that they are bugs on the stable intrepid with new X-packages. They make my fujitsu-siemens lifebook laptop absolutelly hopeless to use after upgrade from Hardy to Intrepid: 1) Inpredictable, but frequent x-crashes The bug seems to identical bug #220019 that was assumed to be solved on Hardy and earlier releases of intrepid. However, on xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.4.1 the problem makes X very unstable on my laptop. 2) mplayer full screen video and vlc crashes X This really ugly as it kills all tty1-7. Your only chance is alternately using ctrl-alt-backspace and ctrl-alt-delete. I didn't experience these bug on Hardy, not even on kde-4.0 remix version. I would like to try installing the old Hardy drivers, but they conflict with the rest of the xorg-core package, so it requires probably that I go back to Hardy's X-system ... if that is possible. Incidentally, I used the i810-driver on Hardy. But, the intrepid i810 driver makes the screen go absolutely crazy with black-white-images passing fastly downward on the screen. I hope I have provided sufficient technical information on the bugs in the attached file. If anyone would like more information, please tell me. + + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation 82852/82855 GM/GME/PM/GMV Processor to I/O Controller [8086:3580] (rev 02) + Subsystem: Fujitsu Limited.
