I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 8.04 and apparently ran into this bug. I never encountered these problems before in previous releases, I was previously running 7.10 (Gutsy). Toggling SAVE_VBE_STATE to false in /etc/default/acpi-support as Paul Sladen explained in Comment #8 solved the rendering problems for me.
Here's the output for grep . /var/lib/acpi-support/*-*: /var/lib/acpi-support/bios-version:1VET71WW (1.29 ) /var/lib/acpi-support/system-manufacturer:IBM /var/lib/acpi-support/system-product-name:2887AVG /var/lib/acpi-support/system-version:ThinkPad R51 And lspci | grep -i graphics: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) -- Rendering problems on edgy with Intel Integrated Graphics Device https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/60882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
