Public bug reported:
I installed the .28-5 kernel update for jaunty that hit the updates
today. Now my machine fails to boot. I never get to GDM, all I see is a
very garbled screen. If I move the mouse the garbage on screen moves as
well. I suspect it's actually a corrupted version of the "Ubuntu is
running in low graphics mode" that I'm seeing, but I'm not sure. I still
got the 2.5.1 version of the intel DDX driver but I did get the new
libdrm etc.
I've been previously running this machine with the special intel drm
patches that where merged into .28-5 and I never saw any problems with
those (in fact these patches fixed an important drmWaitForVBlank bug for
me). I'm talking in particular about the "don't enable vblank for
disabled pipes" patch etc.
I'm attaching a photo of the screen corruption so you get the idea.
