Bartosz, I'd previously tried the Jaunty kernel to no effect. However, I noticed that there were a bunch of updates for Xorg via apt which I've upgraded to and then tried again. There was also a new minor kernel release which I've also installed.
NormalUser is my usual account. TempUser is an account I created for testing in case this was happening due to a bum KDE config. So, here is what I found: 1. The two Karmic kernels do not allow me to log in and in out of 3 attempts hangs the machine. [both users] 2. Neither kernel allows console logins (via drop-down option) from the login window. [both users] 3. I can get to the recovery root shell. startx loads X and then hangs the system. 4. The Jaunty kernel also does not allow me to log in. [both users] 5. However, I could reach the console via the console login option. 6. startx using NormalUser failed. 7. startx using TempUser succeeded. I used the output from Xorg.0.log to create a xorg.conf file in /etc/X11/. (see attached) 8. startx using NormalUser now succeeded. KDE apps are a little unstable though. 9. Toggling back to the console window shows that DRI was automatically disabled. (see attached) I noticed on your linked wiki page that there's a binary driver from VIA for 9.04. Will this work with 9.10? Are there plans to add this to the restricted drivers list? Will you be releasing a .deb with DRI disabled? Thanks. ** Attachment added: "xorg.conf.0.jaunty.kernel.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35424322/xorg.conf.0.jaunty.kernel.txt -- [KM400]KDE not working after Karmic upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/467967 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
