[Bug 306916] Re: [i945] screen shows temporary garbage then goes blank, falls into low-graphics mode

[erica hollis]

all worked well for one day then next day couldn't even start up - after
showing the Ubuntu logo a little cursor appeared top left then screen
went blank black - this happened 3x in row so I started up in safe mode
instead but no Xorg.0.log for bad sessions as obviously not loaded X11
at that point.

Twice since then the laptop has hung after doing some simple graphics -
not going black this time and no error appearing - mouse moves Ok but no
response to any mouse clicks or key presses - had to switch off power in
the end. Have saved the logs for these two sessions (attached).

Meantime I'm working with Driver "vesa" to see if that helps as I am
finding it difficult to get any work done with this carry on.
