Hi, I have the same problem, with the exact same video harware in Ubuntu 9.10. In BIOS, the PAVP option is Disabled.
My X session starts with non fatal errors but it is very slow and it systematically crashes when I run the "System Testing" tools provided with Ubuntu. The video test makes X crash. I also have to say that the 'nomodeset' option is given to my kernel in order to not hang at startup. How can I help reporting useful information to debug this problem as it is very anoying and it has been here for a while now. I would very much apreciate your help. Thanks. --------------------------- xserver-xorg-video-intel is version 2:2.9.0-1ubuntu2.1 -------------------------- $ uname -a Linux xxx-desktop 2.6.31-20-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 8 09:02:26 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ grep EE Xorg.0.log (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
