[Bug 1075660] Re: Boots to corrupted/unusable screen

 

Parag Warudkar, could you please confirm this issue exists with the
latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains,
could you please run the following command in the development release
from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will
automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this
report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

Title:
  Boots to corrupted/unusable screen

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  iMac12 often boots to a corrupted / unusable screen with artifacts.
  VTs are unusable. SSH login works and killing and restarting
  Xorg/lightdm fixes the screen corruption problem.

  [ Update: Seems to be reproducible independent of kernel version -
  both -17 and -18 give the same results.]
