Thank you for contributing to my bug report. Unfortunately it has been a little bit quiet here for some time.

I hope that the developers at Intel are able AND willing to fix this. I think that changing the screen resolution is a "basic" feature which should be implemented correctly by any graphics driver. Particularly laptop users might want to connect external beamers/displays to their devices without crashing their whole graphical system. I'm quite sure that on other platforms this would have been repaired much earlier.

I've spent many hours providing test feedback for this bug (among other things this required to buy another hard disk and to install "unstable" versions of several packages). It seems that nobody was able to get the real error from my descriptions.

I suggest that some paid developer at Intel should get a board/laptop which is affected and try for him-/herself. When he/she was successful in reproducing and fixing the error I'm inclined to test again...

regards
Christian
