lenovo t500 crashes after dist-upgrade to 11.04

[Janning Vygen]

Upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04. first went fine. After reboot machine did not boot some messages on black screen were reported
i entered the bios and switched from "Switchable Graphics" to "Discrete Graphics". Then everything worked like a charm. But i guess "normal" users wouldn't get this far.

BTW: the flgx ati driver was installed after fixing this crash

Hey janning-h,

You filed this bug report against natty, but I see it's still open and
doesn't appear to have much activity recently. So, now that oneiric
is released and stable, this may be a good point for you to upgrade
and re-test if this issue is still present there.

If it's solved in the new release and you think it's worth backporting
the fix, please indicate that. Or if having the fix in the new release
is good enough, feel free to close out the bug (or let us know and we'll
close it.)

If it's not solved, leave the bug report open. I can't promise we'll
get to it (we get way more bugs filed than we can usually get to), but
your testing and feedback can help out if and when we do.

Hi,

am not able to test it as i already installed a fresh 11.10 without
problems.

regards
Janning
