Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
My new Lenovo X200 has an Intel X4500 video card. When I start X using
the intel driver it crashes the whole system, leaving me with a black
backlit screen. I have to shut the laptop down hard; I can't kill X or
switch to the console. Even caps lock doesn't toggle.
I'm running the latest x64 Intrepid: kernel 2.6.27-2-generic, xserver-
xorg-video-intel 2.4.1-1ubuntu2, etc.
I found a similar bug that recommended disabling usplash, so I did.
Unfortunately, no change here.
Right now I'm using the vesa driver instead of intel, which seems to
work OK, except it of course lacks hardware acceleration.
