You have been subscribed to a public bug: Hi! i have a similar problem than: "Screen & Keyboard Crashes/hangs but CPU continues to work". It is a rather new Netbook (Gigabyte T1028M) with Intel 945GSE graphics chipset. All hardware works pretty fine in ubuntu (Netbook Remix).
I experienced the problem first with JAUNTY (before and after the update to the new intel drivers). Then I tried upgrading to KARMIC but the problem persists (i do updates almost every day)... The screen is completely freezing, the mouse is not moving and no reaction to any keyboard input - even pressing the power switch (shortly) doesnt work. I feel this happens only when i am somehow "active" clicking around somewhere and not while watching videos for example. Anyhow, it is still possible to connect via SSH: I tried to restart gdm typing "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart". It says that this succeeded but the screen keeps frozen... Probably the system doesnt even recognize that something crashed (just thinking) So i ended up typing "sudo reboot" to shutdown softly... I know these are somewhat few informations. Please tell me what i can do to help solving that problem. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete -- Screen, mouse & keyboard crashes/hangs but CPU continues to work https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/423029 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
