Same problems occurred on my IBM ThinkPad X30, now running Xubuntu Karmic. Without adding "i915.modeset=0" to the kernel command line, all my "text" consoles were only blinking and I was unable to login into them. Login into Xfce was possible. Suspending and hibernating (after activated through X fce 4 Power Manager) was not working. Without any xorg.conf file I had probably similar problems like Brian Candler with flickering, font corruption, windows borders and so on in Xfce (which occurred randomly after some time).
Adding "i915.modeset=0" to the kernel command line solve problems with 1) text consoles - works fine 2) suspending - works fine 3) hibernating - works fine Problem with "graphics corruption" (flickering, fonts, ...) stil remains. I solved this problem by using "AccelMethod" option set to "XAA" and "ForceEnabledPipeA" option set to "true" in my xorg.conf (as I had it already in Ubuntu 9.04 - Jaunty). Brian, can I ask you about your actual xorg.conf file which you are using now? -- thinkpad x30 suspend/resume problems (was OK under Jaunty) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/475559 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
