Upgraded to version 2.5.1 of xdiagnose from precise-proposed (was installed as version 2.5) Can't see that you have prescribed just what to do with it, but installing and ticking off the debug options did not change the behaviour. NB - the error at my laptop is quite similar to this, but intermit

version 2.5.1 of xdiagnose from precise-proposed, all debug options ticked off, workarounds "disable bootloader graphics" and "disable VESA framebuffer driver" ticked off, rebooted. Flawless suspend/resume with 2 X sessions active. The graphics (Intel 915 chip in Lenovo X201s laptop) also seem m

Thank you, I will certainly do this if and when the problem reappears. Now on 12.10, and things are slightly different. No problem with boot, but serious trouble that is superficially similar to the boot problems on resume from suspend with 2 X sessions active. The same popups, but now they mean b

2012-11-22 Thread Jon Eliot
Public bug reported: Ubuntu 12.10, apt-get upgrade daily, this started a few days ago (probably after 2012-11-15). Things were, finally, quite perfect for a few weeks before that. Thanks to whoever fixed the docking/undocking nightmare previously. Now it is back with a vengeance. When undocking,

(Expletive deleted) It happens now also on screen 8 with my primary user. I simply cannot pick up the laptop and go to a meeting. Logout/login required. This is seriously driving me towards Windows (no offense intended, but I need to do my job even more than I need to use my preferred OS). --

It is my damned user. Same symptom now on ordinary login with the laptop out of docking. So it is the driver, in combination with something else. Tried to remove all compiz settings and cache, no sweat. Now at Witt's End. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X
