Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-core
Ubuntu Jaunty (development branch)
Release: 9.04
Package: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.6.0
xserver-
New bug: Xserver was working fine on Jaunty until apt-get update this morning brought in a new xserver-xorg-core. I run apt-update fairly often and this was working fine over the last week.
Machine is Asus P22 with Intel Corporation 82946GZ/GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02). Using DVI-D output connected to Gateway FPD218SW 1680x1050 resolution monitor. (No VGA connector on card; only DVI-D output).
Boots normally until X starts. No output to monitor after that point. X thinks it's running OK because you can hear the Ubuntu sound prompt when the logon screen should be showing. I can logon "blind" to the black screen after hearing the Ubuntu sound and then Alt-F1, logon to the terminal screen blind and then "sudo shutdown -r now" to restart the machine.
Additional note: X server was not actually working perfectly even before this upgrade. It had this same black screen symptom when trying to come back from a suspend.
Xorg.0.log is attached.

Same problem here, but my graphics card is Nvidia 8600GT (same problem with binary drivers even with opensource, now running at vesa driver...).
