[Bug 385551] [NEW] Jaunty -- Intel 82945G/GZ -- Screen full of vertical lines, cannot logon

[ichudov]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

This is my parents computer that they have 2000 miles away from me. THey
were on Hardy and everything worked. I upgraded them to Intrepid and
rebooted, then upgraded to Jaunty. After that, they report that their
screen is full of vertical lines and they cannot work.

This seems to be an Intel driver issue:

bunny:root:/var/log ###lsmod|grep i9
i915                   65540  2 
drm                    96296  3 i915

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)

This is a high priority issue to me, as I am deeply embarrassed by such
poor performance on what seems to be a very mainstream PC (3 year old
Dell). So if you have any downgrade suggestion for the meantime, let me
know, I feel very badly about this.

I am now going to attach a few things.
