I too am seeing the issue where the screen stays black but the mouse cursor moves and changes shape normally. Eventually, after some long amount of time (which varies from seconds to minutes), the screen will suddenly restore as expected. I when it eventually restores it's usually coincident with a keystroke or mouse movement, but I don't have solid data. I am using a Radeon HD 7970 with 3 monitors, and Unity on Precise.
If I switch to VT2 , wait a little, and switch back, the problem persists. If I switch to VT2, log in, and kill the compiz process, and switch back, the screen restores as normal (except of course windows don't have decorations for a few seconds while compiz respawns, as expected). ** Tags added: precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763422 Title: [i965] idle black screen plus other issues Ubuntu 11.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/763422/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
