I have reinstalled ubuntu both in virtualbox on Macosx and on the hard disk (as a dual boot with Macosx). The one in virtualbox in Macosx runs without problems. Quite stable. The one on the hard disk is now at the '-17' kernel, but still has the video problem with VMs. I have tried running windows 2003 in KVM/QEMU and got the video fade soon after install was complete. I tried uninstalling KVM (no kernel module) and running virtualbox (with Win2k3 guest). Again I got fade out. I think my Hardy is unusable with VMs (but has been stable so far when VM not running).
I decided I must use virtualbox under Macosx for now, until some fix is reported. So I have stopped using ubuntu, because of this issue. It's a stopper. p.s. My Xorg.0.log file reports many warning lines "fbc already enabled on plane a, not enabling on plane a" also some lines saying "AIGLX: 3D driver claims not to support visual 0x23" "AIGLX: 3D driver claims not to support visual 0x24" etc -- X video rendering intermittently fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226272 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
