I upgraded xserver-xorg-video-ati to 1:6.12.192-2 (from debian, build from src on ubuntu) - problem persisted..
when I upgraded kernel to 2.6.33.1 (config from 2.6.32-17.26 generic flavor) - it seems, no more crashing or freezing... I will try testing more extensively later, to make sure 2.6.33.1 solves the problem... p.s. I guess it is the time to notify kernel teem -- [X700] KMS, amd64: reboot or freeze while trying to launch system > preferences > appearance https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544741 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
