I was ok until tonight, when I installed all the latest updates. Got a crash after rebooting, decided to try the 855gm-fix, so I did the following in a terminal:-
echo options i915 modeset=0 | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf Then did:- sudo add-apt-repository ppa:glasen/855gm-fix sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install dkms 855gm-fix-exp-dkms Rebooted, got a message about running Ubuntu in low graphics mode & not being able to detect graphics hardware/settings/etc & a dialog box with several options to try to fix it. Nothing I tried worked, could not get gdm working. Had to uninstall 855gm-fix & reboot, got several Xorg crashes in rapid succession, so had to 'echo options i915 modeset=1 | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf' to get back some sort of stability. -- Xorg crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566324 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
