Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-21-generic Problems with Screen in portrait (90°) mode, Mobile Intel(R) 945GM Express Chipset Family Monitor: EIZO FlexScan L685
With screen in “landscape” (normal) mode, everything works al right. When I change it to “portrait” (90°, left) in GNOME, the image turns al right, the mouse arrow moves as I move the mouse, but there is no reaction on mouse clicks or key strokes. There is a workaround: When I turn, before logging in, the (GUI) session to “GNOME fail-safe” (“abgesichert” in German), even portrait mode works al right; I can switch both ways between landscape and portrait, no function seems to be missing. When, to the contrary, I log-in the normal way and the state was “portrait” at the last shut-down, there comes only a uniformly reddish screen after login. In both cases I can start a new session with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. Xorg.conf is standard, practically no information. Finally I removed compiz-gnome and compiz-fusion-plugins-main, and now it seems to work. Apparently the intel driver does not cooperate with compiz. -- I don't imagein that I will need compiz; but maybe it is worth looking for the bug. -- xserver crashes when rotating display and compiz enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294309 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
