I just received an update of xserver-xorg-core today on a different machine. It says the upgrade closes this bug: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg- driver-i810/+bug/48113
which sounds similar to my bug. Except that bug says that you can switch to other virtual consoles while X is blank, which I can't do. I've downgraded the laptop with the problem to Breezy so unfortunately I can't test it, though I may be willing to upgrade and find out, if there's some reason to believe it might be fixed. The closed bug says it is with i830m video chips, do you know how I can check if I have that chip? -- X won't start on boot of Dapper Final, Live CD or installed system https://launchpad.net/bugs/35934 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
