KMS does not work after an update

[Yorirou]

Hi

I have a 64 bit Kubuntu upgraded from Ubuntu (aptitude install kubuntu-desktop), running on a ThinkPad R500 laptop. I updated my system today, and I rebooted it. I noticed that the Xorg and the kernel upgraded.

When I start booting, I see the Kubuntu progress bar for a while, and it disappears. From that point I can't manage to see anything on the screen, even if I hit any ctrl+alt+fN combinations. The only thing I can do is to reboot my computer with alt+sysrq+sub.

I tried the previous kernel, but it also does not work. The only way I can use my computer is to change the "quiet splash" kernel parameters to "nosplash i915.modeset=0" in the GRUB2 editor at the boot.

I don't use xorg.conf, xorg.log is attached.

$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 9.10
Release: 9.10

Sometimes the new windows don't receive any event.

This issue was reported against karmic, so can you confirm if this issue exists with the most recent Lucid Lynx 10.04 Alpha release? ISO CD images are available at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid/ . Thanks in advance.

Hi

I checked Lucid Alpha 3 and the snapshot from today (Ubuntu version, not Kubuntu) and the livecd worked.

The X server is the same (mostly) in both, so it seems like the problem
has been fixed for Yorirou, therefore marking this one fixed.
