Public bug reported: Description: I recently upgraded my laptop (Dell Inspiron e1505) from Intrepid (8.10) to Jaunty (9.04). I ignored the warnings (http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904) and dove in head first, thinking that these problems must have resolved themselves since the April release of Jaunty, only to find out... Thats not the case.
The splash screen shows fine but after that all I get is a couple of pixels in a row or two across the screen, instead of what usually would be the login screen. I uploaded a video to better help describe the problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vLEi68wrQI After trying all of the suggestions mentioned in the release notes (including this one: RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4]), I did some googling and searching of the forums and I gave this a shot: HOWTO: Jaunty Intel Graphics Performance Guide [http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7104256#post7104256] See Also: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7914767 Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Dependencies: DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 LsHal: Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel None ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersion: Linux version 2.6.30-02063003-generic (r...@zinc) (gcc version 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)) #02063003 SMP Sat Jul 25 10:57:13 UTC 2009 SourcePackage: xserver-xorg-video-intel Uname: Linux 2.6.30-02063003-generic i686 UnreportableReason: This is not a genuine Ubuntu package ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 -- Upgraded from Intrepid to Jaunty, now I can't login [See YouTube Video Attached] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/427531 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
