There seem to be different problems with Intel 865G video. One is that DRI has to be disabled with Option "DRI" "False" in /etc/xorg.conf or with the patch from Bryce (Thanks) http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24434513/116_846g_865g_disable_dri.patch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/304871.
Another is the acceleration. To play video (badly) Option "NoAccel" "True" has to be set. This setting is not practical for other use and not much good for video other than it does not crash the system. There are problems with all sorts of video, flash, mplayer, slide shows to name three. Some lead to an instant restart of X, a software Ctl-Alt-Bksp, while others simply do not play at all, cause lock up or display badly. The system boots to lockup with UXA enabled. Nothing additional in the logs. If anyone has any ideas to try or tests to run please post them. -- [i845G] Fatal server error: Couldn't bind memory for BO front buffer (Jaunty) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/304871 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
