Original bug was where the graphics would normally work but every so often the screen would be corrupted with horizontal lines of junk. After much research I found a primitive fix for that:- * edit /etc/default/grub to add nomodeset to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX * sudo update-grub * reboot 2. Now the system will only allow VGA 640x480 graphics This is occurring on an Intel 829845G/GZ chipset ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: xorg 1:7.7+7ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-17.21-generic 4.2.3 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-17-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: LXDE Date: Sat Nov 7 18:44:01 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-11-07 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Lubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Release amd64 (20151021) SourcePackage: xorg UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1514102/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
