I've created a script to switch to VT1 and back, made it executable, made it so it doesn't ask for password, then I've assigned a keyboard shortcut to run 'sudo my_script'.
#! /bin/bash # fix black screen gvt=$(fgconsole) chvt 1; sleep 2; chvt $gvt exit 0 I can run this on my HTPC with the press of a button on the remote. This works most of the times, and when this is not working I have a second script that restarts mdm. At least I don't have to worry about unsaved data, this is only an entertainment environment. Now my wife can use the system :) -- 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/1418295 Title: Black screen after resuming from suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1418295/+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
