setting to triaged, importance high, and reassigning to the xorg package
added the regression-release tag, as per
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/RegressionTracking
** Summary changed:
- X won't start in 8.10 - D945GCLF & Panasonic TV
+ D945GCLF & Panasonic TV - X resolution too high resulting in black TV screen
** Description changed:
+ This is a regression, since it used to work before upgrading to 8.10.
+
I recently upgraded to 8.10 and now I am faced with a black screen on
boot (I still hear the Ubuntu Drums). I can access the vty terminals
and login etc so I know the machine hasn't crashed.
-
- I assume this is something to do with the fact my xorg.conf is now
- pretty sparse.
The hardware I am running is:
D945GCLF - Atom Board with on board Graphics
TH-42PZ80B - Panasonic Plasma TV
- I can confirm that I had no problems with this setup before I upgraded
- to 8.10
-
- Please let me know of any files that would be helpful.
-
- I can also attach a list of modes supported by the TV if this would be
- any help.
-
- Also is there anyway I can rollback X to get a picture in the meantime?
+ Adding the following line to xorg.conf fixes the issue
+ Option "PreferredMode" "1360x768"
** Tags added: regression-release
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
