Public bug reported: Hi
Upgrading to a newer distribution version mostly works very well, but the monitor switches off after some time with no user input. This is normally quite useful on notebooks to save some battery power, but a big problem during upgrade when the monitor doesn't turn on again. If you think that the system crashed due to an ACPI bug and reset, the Ubuntu installation gets corrupted and with no luck in recovery you have to reinstall the entire system. :( See also: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/28146/ Best Regards, Atalanttore ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Hi Upgrading to a newer distribution version mostly works very well, but the monitor switches off after some time with no user input.
