No agreed its not an Intel Graphics Driver issue. Evidenced by the re-install of the drivers. The issue has been fixed now. Ubuntu released updates which I installed on 4/3/13 which resolved the issue. I do not have a full list of the updates to hand but I remember they included: libgl1-mesa-* version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
The updates definitely resolved the issue. I reconfigured grub immediately after the install to remove nomodeset and following a reboot could successfully login and run Unity 3D. At the moment I cannot figure out how to display the output in the bug report which details the software versions installed (without going through the process of raising another bug report). Otherwise I would be happy to compare the versions of the below and compare what has been upgraded: version.compiz: compiz 1:0.9.7.12-0ubuntu1 version.ia32-libs: ia32-libs N/A version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.39-0ubuntu0.1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 8.0.4-0ubuntu0.3 version.libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental: libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental N/A version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx 8.0.4-0ubuntu0.3 version.xserver-xorg-core: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.11.4-0ubuntu10.11 version.xserver-xorg-input-evdev: xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.7.0-0ubuntu1.2 version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:6.14.99~git20111219.aacbd629-0ubuntu2 version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.17.0-1ubuntu4.3 version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:0.0.16+git20111201+b5534a1-1build2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1144054 Title: Black Screen & Mouse Frozen on boot due to issue with Graphics To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1144054/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
