Bug Description
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 8.10
Release: 8.10
Codename: intrepid
Linux wuppie 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 21:57:00 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
I've experienced a couple of times that after I've logged out of a graphical session and am supposed to see the gdm login screen, I only get a black screen with even the backlight of my lcd switched off. The machine is not dead as I could switch to a TTY and log in there. I assumed that something was wrong with gdm so I tried 'sudo killall gdm' and 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start', but that again led to a black screen. In the kern.log files there's something about 'putting AGP V2 device into 0x mode' for every time I tried to restart gdm. Only after rebooting I could get to see the gdm login screen again.
Additionally, I've occasionally had a black screen after a resume as well, but then the machine was completely dead and I needed to reset it. Nevertheless, I do believe it is the same bug. I am using the open source openchrome driver. Hardware is an Acer 1352XC laptop with Athlon MP 2200+ processor.
Though this bug happens 1 out of 5 times, I cannot see a pattern. Only thing I'm sure of is that the black screen has always occured after the laptop has (either successfully or not) resumed from suspend mode.
Thanks,
Robert
