In my system the TV output is already disabled (without the above lines in xorg.conf). Running xresprobe intel does not give the colored blocks. Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 800, maximum 1280 x 1280 VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right) LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 331mm x 207mm 1280x800 59.9*+ 60.0 1280x768 60.0 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3 640x480 59.9 TV disconnected (normal left inverted right)
I did find something in the logfiles: the installation uses framebuffer and loads modules fbcon and vga16fb (+ some depending modules). My installed system does not use these modules. When I do the installation without any additional boot option, I get the colored blocks when I do the installation with boot option vga=771 or fb=false, I don't get the colored blocks. Could this mean the problem is caused by using framebuffer with the intel driver? I also found a way to reproduce the problem manually: I don't answer the question about language support in the installation but switch to tty2. When I just install xresprobe and xserver-xorg-video-intel manually, the colored blocks show (no boot-option). Could I retrieve more information by doing this manual install with some special options? -- Alternate install of Tribe-4 corrupts video display when installing packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127008 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
