Problem persisted with kernel version right up to 2.6.27-12, not occurred on the one restart so far since 2.6.27-13 (installed to successfully fix bug 261721) but that means next-to-nothing given the seemingly random occurrence of the bug, no other proposed updates installed, up-to-date in intrepid-updates and intrepid-security.
Laptop display continues to never be detected and hence lack resolution and colour settings. A really bad workaround has been found by fiddling; switching between a command line and x via ctrl+alt+F1 and ctrl+alt+F7 a few times seems to run the roulette wheel again; both have a chance of not displaying when I switch (have to log on blind on both), but switching repeatedly from one to the other will eventually result in X displaying on the laptop screen. -- [Inspiron 1100] Fails to detect laptop flatpanel screen (i845) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316081 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
