[Bug 316423] Re: black screen after intrepid login intel graphics
Great you figured out how to write to a file (`lspci -vvnn >lspci.txt` in case you did something more complicated). Xorg.0.log logs what happens from the X-server starts (just before you see the login screen) until you log out. To catch any error messages from when things go wrong we need the Xorg.0.log that is generated when you don't run in safe mode. There are a few ways to do this (I list two in case one doesn't work) - Log in - get the blank screen (you hear the login sound), then do Ctrl+F2 to get a text login where you can copy the file to your home directory with `cp /var/log/Xorg.0.log ~/Xorg.0.log.txt`. Ctrl+F7 will take you back to the blank screen where you can Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to kill the X-server and get the login screen again. - Log in - get the blank screen (you hear the login sound). Do Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. This kills the X-server and starts a new X-session and a new Xorg.0.log, but the old one is moved to /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old. You can then log in using failsafe mode and upload that file. If you look at the file, it should have many lines starting with (II) intel(0): as opposed to (II) VESA(0): for the failsafe one. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- black screen after intrepid login intel graphics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316423 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Description changed: If I run a LiveCD of Ubuntu, Kubuntu or Linuxmint 8.10 or even install them on my IBM ThinkPad X30 I get a blank screen with just the mouse cursor. With the install I get a blank screen after entering the login information. I can hear the startup sounds for all startups but I don't see a desktop. If do a ctrl-alt-backspace can sometimes see the desktop for a split second before returning to the login screen.

I figured out how to get the info for lspci to a text file. here it is. ** Attachment added: "lspci.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21186886/lspci.txt -- black screen after intrepid login intel graphics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316423 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Here is the xorg.0.log from the live cd. I chose the safe mode and then did a ctrl+alt+f2 to get the file. I can't figure out how to get the output from lspci -vvnn to a file to attach. Can someone explain how to capture the output to a file. I'm sill in a learning mode with the command line. thanks ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21186548/Xorg.0.log -- black screen after intrepid login intel graphics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316423 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it without more information. Please include /var/log/xorg.0.log and lspci -vvnn (v v n n) as separate attachments. Since you are unable to see the desktop, you can do this using a tty terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F2). With the live cd, you may be able to get to a desktop using F4 - Safe Mode. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- black screen after intrepid login intel graphics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316423 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I experience the same behaviour except in different situations. I will try to investigate more when I get my hands on the i810 computer... ** Tags added: likely-dup regression ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: Confirmed => New -- black screen after intrepid login intel graphics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316423 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
