The "crash" is X only. The GDM screen displays (perfectly, no garbage) and then usually that's it. I have, once or twice, been able to type the first character of my username. That's it. No more keyboard response. I can't switch to a terminal using Ctrl+Alt+F2 (or any other). I can't kill X with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. I have not tried 'Option "DontZap" "no"'.
I can ssh in IF the laptop is connected via Ethernet (wireless doesn't get an address until you log in). From SSH I can reboot. Restarting X using '/etc/init.d/gdm restart' doesn't kill the locked X server. I'll restart one more time with adding DontZap and remarking the EXANoComposite line to test Ctrl+Alt+Backspace and the *-Lock keys. -- [i845G] xserver locks up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/318494 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 -- universe-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
