[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 966744] Re: [i965] Resume from suspend leaves me with black screen or a screen of the desktop before it suspended. Compiz hung in intel_update_renderbuffers() from intel_prepare_r

I found an easy way to get this update. This might be obvioius to experienced Ubuntu users, but it wasn't obvious to me. In System Tools/Administration/Update Manager, under Settings/Updates, check Pre-release Updates. Then close the window and click Check. You will see a lot of proposed

Matt Price (matt-price) asked about the underlying cause of the hang, and I think it is most clearly stated in the link to freedesktop-bugs #50227 at the top of this page in the status table, which finally has this bug marked as critical by almost every subsystem. The fact this bug report goes

Oh, I should also mention I have seen the hang on a T60 with a Radeon X1300 video card as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966744 Title: [i965] Resume

I am seeing it on a T60 running Ubuntu 12.04 with an Intel 945 video card. I have my lid set to no action so I am not even going into suspend, and can get it to fail 20% of the time. There really is no workaround except not closing the lid --- hope this is fixed soon. I have 8 other T60s with

I don't think corrupt binaries is the general cause of the hang problem. I ran debsums -s and got no problems reported, but still see the hang. Also, I uninstalled gnome-screensaver a while ago, but still get the hang. I do have an Intel video card, but saw the hangs with an nVidia card as well.

I have developed an automatic fix based on a bug report comment (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video- ati/+bug/552246/comments/2). Add this file as /etc/acpi/local/lid.sh.pre --- is basically does Cntrl-Alt-1, Cntrl- Alt-7 when you open the lid and fixes the problem for
