Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
Hi! When running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg yesterday my computer would always freeze when automatically testing for my monitor. The screen would first go blank (black), then show some random bitpatterns and stay that way till I shut off the computer. Three- finger-salut and a soft power off were both ignored. I am using a thinkpad T43p (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/ThinkpadT43p-2668 ) with a VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M24 1T [FireGL M24 GL] (rev 80) graphics card (according to lspci) running feisty. ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg's monitor test freezes computer https://launchpad.net/bugs/74021 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
