My comments on entry #13: gedit 20-intel.conf Copy in the lines starting with Section and ending with EndSection: [code] Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "AccelMethod" "uxa" EndSection [/code] save quit sudo cp 20-intel.conf /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d enter your password
Check to see if the entry made it into the directory O.K.: cat /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf Now /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d is read once on boot so you have to reboot for it to take effect. What this configuration does is tell X11 to use the method "uxa" an older section of code, since on this pc the newer code "sna" screws up. If this configuration doesn't work for you, then delete the 20-intel.conf entry in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d Now Xenial and Wily install .iso's are a real bear to read on this Lenovo M58p because of the garbled text. On finish of install, before I do a reboot, I use the install ubunto to make the conf.d entry into the target ubuntu install. That's a bit tricky. Let us know how you do. -- 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/1507255 Title: Garbled graphics in Wily with Intel GMA4500 chip To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1507255/+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
