I've recently been experiencing this problem a lot. I am using the latest release of Ubuntu (Gutsy 7.10). I haven't had the same "rainbow effect" that other users have been reporting, but my xserver definitely crashes, and my monitor displays the same few hundred pixels from the last good screen refresh over and over and over....
I'm running on amd64, with integrated graphics. i figured this was a problem with an overload on my IG, but since reading these forums, am I correct in assuming this is simply a bug that many users experience? I can't see living with this problem for the rest of my linux experience (I am a new user), and I'd still like to use GNOME. I've had a great experience with Ubuntu (aside from this bug), and I don't plan to go back to using XP or Vista, but I can't really afford to manually restart my computer 20-30 times a day. Will this still occur with other Net browsers? I have experienced this problem not only in Firefox, but also when using Rhythmbox occasionally, though it is very rare. I hope the Gutsy crew fixes this soon, it is ruining my life! -- XServer Crashes with "Active ring not flushed" error. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/50576 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
