Hi, After searching half a day for a solution to the black screen of death issue, I finally ended up at this thread. I am happy to report the problem on Lenovo T61 with Intel 965GM graphic card on a Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is fixed by following Jamie's steps listed in comment #99. It does need an updated kernel, mine is 3.13.0-46-generic #79-ubuntu.
I would appreciate if someone with more knowledge then I propagates this solution to 50+ sites which discusses the black screen problem but with no viable solution! Thank you very much for your dedication to help resolve this issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1388612 Title: [GM965] GPU lockup running OpenGL applications on Dell Vostro 1510 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mesa/+bug/1388612/+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
