editing the grub menu to include "i915.modeset=1" for the latest ubuntu kernel version "linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic 2.6.32-24.43" still works for me. :)
also i tried the mainline kernel version "2.6.33-02063303-generic 2.6.33-02063303" a while ago (few months) and that's the one i have been using since then. this one boots fine without including "i915.modeset=1" in the grub boot configuration. hope they are able to fix this in maverick -- [i855] X doesn't start with kernel 2.6.32-21 unless passing i915.modeset=1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566379 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
