So after finding an Windows image and flashing my Bios to F.25 the problem is still the there.
What happened: I installed WinVista, flashed my BIOS (The Insyde-Setup sayed: old ID: 1486, old Version: F.12 - new ID: 1486, new Version: F.25) After finishing the setup my PC shutdown. The power seemed to be "disconnected" abruptly (like when I disconnect my power-cable and there is no battery while the notebook is running) After that I started my notebook, the BIOS seems to sometimes not register my keys (i.e. I can't open some pages from others, where I could before). Ubuntu didn't show anything on the build in screen. I plugged in an external screen, started Ubuntu and switched, via tty1, the graphicscard to "Intel only" (IGD). At this point I started Ubuntu in the "Recovery Mode" (via Grub) and activated Xorg failsafe. It did however hang a huge time without starting any X. So I rebooted. After a new restart I could change my brightness with my FN-keys again (my Notebook starts with a blank screen every time, I have to higher the brightness then). octavian-tm2:~$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date [sudo] password for octavian: F.25 02/18/2011 I hope the important informations where mentioned by me. PS: I've tested a few times, subjectively I would say that it got better (it hangs for a shorter time period), this however needs more testing to be sure. ** Tags removed: bios-outdated-f.25 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1062077 Title: [HP TouchSmart tm2-2010eg] Linux hangs with: "[drm:atom_op_jump] *ERROR* atombios stuck in loop for more than 5secs aborting" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1062077/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
