** Description changed: Using 09.10 alpha 6 LiveCD on a Medion MD 97900. Display makes 2 entries in lspci : Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics After Kubuntu started to initialize normally, the desktop shows two otherwise blank windows and a taskbar "overlayed" with fragments of extra huge characters. If some clicking is made to start something, the desktop changes to thin stripes. The system finally dies, not responding to any click. Ctrl-Alt-F2 and I extracted the attached logs. Strangely enough, there seems to be no problem with Ubuntu (Gnome) LiveCD. Update : Please note that this laptop isn't mine and that I'll be away on october 3rd for 15 days. When Kubuntu-desktop is installed on top of (G)Ubuntu, the said problem occurs not only while a KDE session runs but as soon as the Display Manager starts (which the kid blindly worked through anyway). This is probably because KDE stomps on Gnome instead of gently sitting next. Update #2: Problem is a font size. Title updated. Problem appears in GDM too and in all 8.04-9.10 releases. Side story : As there is an apparently 2 years-old problem with iwl3945 not enabling the WiFi controller when the button is pressed, preventing any use of the WiFi, and not counting the issues in more entries for iwl3945 ... ... the kid I'm striving to help, or try to, wants to use Windows, or Suse if the WiFi's fixed. Update: This WiFi problem was worked around with a BIOS WiFi always-on setting, but that's obviously not the correct solution and someone should care about getting that button problem fixed. I'm afraid you made at least one more KDE deserter )-: :-) + + + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/PM/GMS, 943/940GML and 945GT Express Memory Controller Hub (rev 03) + 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
