[Bug 1070150] Re: Intermittent low graphics mode with Intel HD graphics
I am having the same issue with a system with dual vga nvidia optimus and intel (I don't use nvidia proprietary drivers or any thing). I would be happy if intel starts always correctly. I tryed to compare log files of xorg and they start differentiating with line setversion 1.4 failed In the good log file (the one that system starts normally) the order of loading moduls is: [ 6.071] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0 [ 6.071] (==) Matched nvidia as autoconfigured driver 1 [ 6.071] (==) Matched nouveau as autoconfigured driver 2 [ 6.071] (==) Matched nv as autoconfigured driver 3 [ 6.071] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 4 [ 6.071] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 5 [ 6.071] (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 6 [ 6.071] (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 7 [ 6.071] (==) Assigned the driver to the xf86ConfigLayout in the other one the secuence is: [ 7.362] (==) Matched nvidia as autoconfigured driver 0 [ 7.362] (==) Matched nouveau as autoconfigured driver 1 [ 7.362] (==) Matched nv as autoconfigured driver 2 [ 7.362] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 3 [ 7.362] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 4 [ 7.362] (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 5 [ 7.362] (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 6 [ 7.362] (==) Assigned the driver to the xf86ConfigLayout as you can see, it seems like the drivers are recing which one has to start first and if intel starts first it works other wise fails. if you need both full log files or any thing I can do to help please let me know. another problem I have (not sure if related) is that when starting with a second monitor connected the system hangs with a black screen. this happens after selecting to boot on ubuntu (I have dual boot sytem). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070150 Title: Intermittent low graphics mode with Intel HD graphics To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/1070150/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I confirm, that lightdm restarting works. If lightdm is replaced by gdm the issue is gone and everything works very well.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.7 kernel[0] (Not a kernel in the daily directory) and install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream-testing' tag. Please only remove that one tag and leave the other tags. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as Confirmed. Thanks in advance.

I have this same issue with both 12.04 and 12.10... don't think it's a kernel problem. Using ctrl-alt-F1 at boot-up black screen and using terminal to issue these: sudo service lightdm restart immediately brings up the desktop, Unity3D, Intel HD3000, dual SSDs, 8GB RAM.

Hi Frank, Thanks for your feedback.
