[i855gm] Lucid Crashes without warning on Dell

[Charlie Young]

Binary package hint: plymouth

Initial Issue was not being able to install because Lucid crashed after initial Ubuntu Screen. I changed the boot command as suggested and added "i95.modeset=1" at the end and it booted and installed. Distribution kernal would crash every 10 minutes or so. I booted from Grub and used an older kernal. Now computer will run for 10-20 hours without a crash. On last crash I collected files and they are below. I have held off installing on other computers due to these issues. Computer is a Dell D500 P4 1.3ghz 1gb ram. I have three identical computers and all run Karmic with no issues. Thanks.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help to improve Ubuntu.

The crash you describe, and the accompanying logs, match a crash in the intel X driver, not in plymouth. Reassigning to the correct package.

Charlie, this seems to be a problem that is known to affect a lot of users with 855GM chipsets. I'm marking this as a duplicate of bug 541411 where we track that particular problem.
