Unfortunately, with the released version of jaunty, the character of the problem has changed -- now what I'm seeing (which might not be the same thing at all) is that every now and then I'll do something seemingly innocuous in firefox, the screen will go black and the monitor lose signal, and the m

This is happening pretty often to me in Eoan (system info uploaded in bug 1852158 if it might help). I do often use an external monitor, but the crash seldom happens if I suspend with the external monitor as Vlad described. For me, it's more common that I sleep with the external monitor connected,

Not fixed here. I upgraded the Vaio to Oneiric yesterday and am seeing font corruption after running it for about 2.5 hours this morning with several suspends. I'm also seeing the i915 module loaded in oneiric. I can't test what module it used in natty (replaced that partition in the upgrade) but

I have a theory that this may be related to heat. I almost never see bad fonts immediately after booting, but after a long session where the fan has been on a lot, the fonts will get worse and worse.

Ignore that comment about heat. After more experimentation, I do occasionally see the problem right after booting, and it almost always persists through a suspend cycle. Exiting/restarting X doesn't cure it, but rebooting (even with no appreciable time for cooldown) does. -- You received this bug
