Which version of xorg-server (exactly) did you have installed when the problem began? Did the issue completely go away when you downgraded to the previous version? What version was that?
Fwiw, all of the recent changes to xorg-server have been things that could not cause a black screen issue, so I'm suspicious that what you're seeing may be unrelated, especially since you indicate you've seen this failure before. Anyway, for how to create a full bug report about a black screen issue please see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting which includes a guide on this specific issue that you should follow. ** Package changed: xorg-server (Ubuntu) => xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- Xserver black screen on 3/28/09 update of Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350399 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
