Oh sorry, I missed that it's working in 8.10 but not in Hardy. Getting it fixed in Hardy would require a driver backport, which is more difficult because of the potential with regressions. And the Xorg team is especially careful about introducing new drivers into a stable release because nobody wants their LTS to stop working :(
I'll update this bug to focus more on the need for a backport. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Summary changed: - [gm45] Intel Cantiga graphics not showing gdm login page on Tecra A10 running Hardy + [gm45] Intel Cantiga graphics not showing gdm login page on Tecra A10 running Hardy (backport -intel to Hardy) -- [gm45] Intel Cantiga graphics not showing gdm login page on Tecra A10 running Hardy (backport -intel to Hardy) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/279924 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
