Intel G33 X broken again by -14 kernel

[Paul Perkins]

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Symptoms appeared after second version of -14 kernel image installed. OK now under -13 kernel.
Symptoms: bottom part of screen is rectangular blocks of color, or sometimes other junk.

Sorry to speculate, but it kind of looks like the xserver-xorg-video-intel and the kernel versions are chasing each other in a circle over how to allocate some resource.

The lspci attached is from running the -13 kernel, the one that works at the moment.

Hi, can you check how things stand as of Gutsy-final? Does the issue still exist?

If it does, could you post a photo of the screen showing the corruption, as well as /var/log/Xorg.0.log and the output of lspci -vvnn (lspci -v doesn't show the pci ids).

As far as i am concerned, this can be marked "fixed". As I recall, there was another update to xserver-xorg-video-intel and once that was installed, I could boot the latest kernel version and get X to work. For what it's worth, I installed from Tribe 4 and have basically just let the system update itself when it asked, plus made the tweaks suggested in the Gutsy release notes when Gutsy became "final".

I meant to post a comment about this being fixed earlier, but forgot. Sorry.

Thanks for letting us know, and for marking it fixed!
