Binary package hint: xorg
After upgrading online from 8.04.1 to 8.10 (Intrepid), and starting the
new system, keyboard and mouse input to the X server are frozen.
However, if I switch to a console and restart X either by killing the
Xorg process explicitly or executing '/etc/init.d/gdm restart', the
inputs are enabled. (In the initial state, keyboard input works for
doing commands like ctrl-alt-F2 or ctrl-alt-DEL, but X can't be
(re-)started with ctrl-alt-BS).
The system has a Jetway 625EMP-800 motherboard, with a VIA Samuel 2 800 mHz CPU.
The rest of the chipset is made by VIA.
The display controller is a VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8623 [Apollo CLE266]
integrated CastleRock graphics (rev 03)
The monitor is a ViewSonic E771 17" tube monitor.
Software version info:
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=8.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=intrepid
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 8.10"
Linux trippy 2.6.25-2-386 #1 Tue Sep 30 14:47:35 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
I have enclosed dmesg output, and will add more files shortly.
This system has had another X server startup problem for some time - in
about a quarter of boots, it fails to start up at screen resolutions >=
1024x768, and starts up at 800x600. This is likely a timing problem -
some race condition. This bug is probably related to that.
