As requested by Bartosz and our private correspondence I did the following. Quoting a mail to Bartosz.
" Thanks for your efforts. Please give me time till week end to try Jaunty. In the meanwhile this is my experience with Ubuntu 8.04 and openchrome latest trunk (last weeks.) I followed the instruction in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome and installed openchrome in NC20. It went well. I could see a better display - basically the fonts looked better on their edges. But I am facing following problems after installing latest openchrome. 1) When screen saver starts up and after a while the screen becomes very dark. There is no way I could get usable brightness. Fortunately it is sufficiently bright to click shutdown and restart the machine if the ambient light permits. 2) When I play a movie with totem and click the menu items, they go behind the movie playing. So I can not select the menu items. 3) When I play a broken or incomplete movie totem freezes and keyboard does not respond. Not even CAPS key. I had to reboot. I tried to reproduce the problem. I then changed the xorg.conf and removed the entries for openchrome. After reboot the above problems are not seen anymore. Please let me know if i should indeed install Jaunty to try this. If so, I will require a weeks time. Any other tests that I can do on 8.04 can be done immediately. Thanks very much for your contributions :-)" Bartosz replied : "Please attach Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf from Hardy and Openchrome trunk" Please see my xorg.conf and xorg.0.log after I reverted the changes made to xorg.conf (deleted lines for openchrome) ** Attachment added: "xorg.0.log after reverting changes made for openchrome." http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27425424/Xorg.tar.gz -- [VX800] Samsung NC20 installation problem(test pattern on screen) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/374090 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
