Hi I am having a similar problem but with Ubuntu 10.10 uname -a Linux 2.6.35-22-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 20:45:36 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I got it fixed by changing all power management options under section "On Battery" to never and unchecked the "sping down hard disks when possible" option. My laptop is a dell 1558, I saw a similar report under redhat https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=624212 This issue only occurred when I was on battery. When the cable was plugged in I could work without problems. This is also similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/574093 Hope this helps, Regards, Victor Bendig ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #624212 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=624212 -- Xorg freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661926 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati 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
