I have this issue on my Dell Inspiron 1525 as well. I have a few other graphical issues w/ this Intel card as well. Marcelo above me had a good idea about the screencast. I'm adding mine, and it shows a similar experience.

If flashes a black screen, and then garbage, and then black, and then black. I see the hard drive light blinking so I know its actually loading in the background. I can press ctrl-alt-backspace, and then ctrl-alt-delete to get the machine restarted. I have to choose "Recovery Mode" in Grub, then choose the "Resume" option. Doing it this way, X will load fine, but performance is terrible.. but it's all I got! I can reproduce this every time I boot from cold, or restart the computer. -- Poor graphics performance and rendering errors on Intel GM965 system, Ubuntu 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252094 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
