Neither bugs you've marked as duplicates seem to actually be duplicates. In Bug #206207 you can restart by pressing ctrl+backspace and ctrl+alt+del. So, unless you retract your statement that it is impossible to restart that way, it is either a different bug or you are mistaken.
In Bug # 205927 Xorg actually crashes, which is not the behavior you are describing here(Here, Xorg is hanging, which, technically, is not a crash). I can, however, confirm that this bug does occur. > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lspci |grep VGA > 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 7100 GS (rev a1) > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uname -a > Linux nobu-desktop 2.6.24-12-generic #1 SMP Wed Mar 12 22:31:43 UTC 2008 > x86_64 GNU/Linux (-generic, because I couldn't get to a terminal when running -rt (of course I probably could if I ran in recovery mode, but I haven't tried yet)) -- [hardy] Black X screen and system halt after installing linux-rt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197130 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
