There is an xorg.conf to turn shadow on.
This is on i845G.
Booted up twice, it runs, but gets a crash report:

Brian,
I did an important omission: the Xorg.0.log file. Here it is.
It shows that X cannot work with my intel driver because it is not compiled for
the X server version 1.8. (as you mentioned in your post #204 offering your
ppa).
Attempting to solve my i845 X problems (subject of this master b

I did the:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:brian-rogers/intel-shadow
and then the apt-get update & apt-get upgrade commands.
because (I guess) KMS was still enabled I always had a black screen after
bootup. The sequence was this:

I have made a strange observation, it may be helpful to others:
Since i double boot, i have no more hang. Double boot means: I interrupt the
booting by hitting ctrl+alt+del during the kernel initialization phase, which
causes the machine to reboot, and the second time i let it start normally.

Brian,
I'd like to test it. I've got i845 and i830 which have had a LOT of
trouble with Maverick, Lucid,
At the moment both of them are running Maverick Alpha 3 updated to 31

I'm simply saying that it is entirely untestable on my machine, because
just running the packages in that repository on that hardware made me
think my monitor was about to blow its tube.
isn't it possible to get the old Intrepid driver working with Lucid's X
version, or has it changed too much? Th
John, comments like yours aren't useful. If you don't want to test
something that might solve your problem, you're completely free to keep
quiet.

Making me install the xorg-edgers repository would be useless. I have
already tried that, and only ppa-purge saved me from having to wipe the

Skip, if you haven't wiped your 10.04 system yet, what happens if you
remove the 'Option "Shadow" "True"' part? I'm curious if the shadow
buffer mode is introducing a new problem or just not fixing an existing
problem. If normal 10.04 fails to even show the login screen, then how

Brian, I booted up the Inspiron 1100 and got the usual v10.04 black
screen.
I then did Ctrl-Alt-F1 and:

I then created the /etc/X11/xorg.conf via nano with only:

Developer Chris Wilson has published a branch of xserver-xorg-video-

of operations that cause problems with the old chipsets.

Hello,
I want to had a detail: between hangs, I always use the "hibernate"
function to get my computer down (not shutdown - unless I just did an
update which requires it, e.g. kernel update).

Note that upon reboot I could not get the normal Gnome logon screen but instead
had the following errors:
