Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
On 9.04, about half the time, when cold starting or waking from suspend, I can't get the X output on the built-in monitor of my laptop. Sometimes, Ctrl-Alt-F1 and then Ctrl-Alt-F7 gets the X video to work. Sometimes Ctrl-Alf-F1 gets character video but Ctrl-Alt-F7 doesn't get X video. Sometimes the computer is completely frozen and I have to turn it off. (Note the "LVDS unknown connection" in the output from xrandr below.)
On 9.10 alpha 3, it's worse. Sometimes I get as far as a GDM login and enter my credentials and it will display the Ubuntu wallpaper but go no farther, and Ctrl-Alt-Fn no longer works. Sometimes I don't get any X display at all. Either way the computer is completely frozen. The Ctrl-Alt-F7 trick doesn't work.
I'm attaching Xorg.0.log from 9.04.

Let me know what else you need.

We would really like the logs from Karmic. I realize that with the symptoms you describe it would be hard to file the bug when using Karmic. I see you were able to get Xorg.0.log using Karmic alpha-3 at bug 316081: http:// launchpadlibrar ian.net/ 29931273/ Xorg.0. log . Are you able to ssh in to the computer when it hangs?
