2008-03-27 18:21:25 Shaun Crampton description Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel Here's what happened on my laptop in Hardy: - Xubuntu Hardy beta live CD - Insert CD, boot to desktop - wait several minutes with no mouse activity - screen goes completely blank - move mouse - screen came back - wait few minutes - screen completely blank. While the screen is completely black, I can see feint detail on the screen (like the back-light is off but the screen still has stuff on it). - move mouse. When I move the mouse the back-light comes on but the screen is black apart from the mouse pointer. - mouse pointer appeared but screen still blank, mouse responds to movement and cursor changes when hovering over a text field for example, computer appears to respond to input (clicking etc.) - VT switch to terminal 1 - VT switch to terminal 7 - screen came back to normal. In Gutsy, I cannot VT switch but if I ssh into the box and temporarily start a new X server and then kill it, that restores the original screen (possibly because it causes a VT switch). On request, moved this bug report from bug 123283. Which covers very similar symptoms on ATI hardware.
