Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
Hi, I am experiencing problems with switching to tty1-6 on my laptop and desktop machine. [I added a description of my issue to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/119585 Brian Murray, however, asked me to create a new bug-report because he thinks it's a different issue. So here it is.] -- c&p -- I have several machines running gutsy with latest updates. Among others, one laptop and one desktop that is connected to a 19" LCD TFT. *Both* of them cannot display the Command Line Interface on tty1-6. The laptop then dies with very ugly stripes until I get it back to STRG+ALT+F7. The TFT on my desk just goes blank. The desktop expects a password (for hdd decryption) at boottime. You see this sucks since I cannot tell when it's ready to take the password. This furthermore is a problem if you need to get some command executed on tty1-6. (Or you want to use the Recovery Console. I didn't check if that fails to, but I guess it does.) In my opinion this definitely needs to be fixed. (If you search the bug tracker here for the terms "gutsy" and "lcd" you get a whole bunch of bugreports. I chose this to report my bug to but I may have taken another.) (These are the files of the desktop which I have upgraded to gutsy. The laptop had a fresh install with Tribe 5 and was upgraded to the latest available version.) -- /c&p -- xorg.conf Desktop: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9708368/xorg.conf xorg.log Desktop: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9708375/Xorg.0.log menu.lst Desktop: http://pastebin.ca/724775 The Desktop has the following graphics-hardware: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8600 GT (rev a1) Running with nvidia-glx-new. The laptop has a ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M, running the standard-driver. (I could install fglrx or do anything you need me to do to help fixing this bug.) I still want to help getting this fixed as soon as possible. So if you need anything, let me know. regards ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- tty1-6 don't work in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/148746 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
