Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
I have seen other bugs reported about intel video drivers and Jaunty, however, all of them seem to be performance issues such as slow responsiveness or choppy video. In my case, the problem is so severe that Jaunty is completely unusable. I have a Panasonic "Let's Note" CF-Y2 laptop with an Intel 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device. The "Let's Note" series of laptops is the Japanese name for the "Toughbook" series released in the US. The laptop has been running Xubuntu and Ubuntu since 8.04, and never had any troubles of any kind. However, on Jaunty, the desktop resolution is over-sized in such a way so that only the top left quarter or eighth fills the entire screen. Also, it's not just that the desktop is larger than the screen, it sort of doubles back on itself, so there's a kind of rasterized look, and different parts of the desktop overlap each other. The bottom 2 thirds of the screen area are outside of the viewable screen space. In short, it is completely unusable. This is the case also when I use the Live CD. I attempted to run some proposed fixes, as suggested at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1136738 However, I need to use my laptop on a daily basis, so I had to revert back to 8.10. I would like to upgrade to Jaunty, but can not until I can be assured that this bug is fixed. So I am filing a bug report in hopes of being alerted when Intel video driver issues have been resolved. Thanks for your help. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Intel Video completely unusable in Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371095 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
