Looks I'm either the first to try i845 user to try Karmic Alpha5, or everyone else is giving up seeing this bug properly repaired.
The good news is that booting with acpi=off allows the boot to complete the desktop. That's progress. The bad news is that once you're at the desktop, performance is ghastly. top shows xorg sucking back 99% cpu during a screen update, which can take 5-10 just switching focus. See tarfile for logs etc. ** Attachment added: "karmicA5i845G.tar" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/31396042/karmicA5i845G.tar -- [i845] Intrepid Compiz freezes on login for i845 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259385 You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
