[Bug 1159140] Re: Asus 1225C crashes constantly with (L)Ubuntu 13.04

 

Sorry, I cannot test that computer any more, as I got rid of it. I was
tired of fighting with the bad linux support and - additionally - the
bad quality of the hardware itself.

Title:
  Asus 1225C crashes constantly with (L)Ubuntu 13.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a problem with the Asus 1225C and several variants of Ubuntu
  13.04 (and I have to hurry up writing this, before it crashes again):
  Daily-live images (last one tested was from two days ago) as well as
  Lubuntu 13.04 Beta1 crash during boot from USB in 3 out of 4 tries: I
  get the very simple Grub menu and when I select "Try...", the screen
  turns black for a while without the possibility to set language etc.
  After a while, the startup screen for (L)Ubuntu shows. But most of the
  time (3 out of 4), the moving dots will stop at some point and the
  computer freezes. No chance to switch to tty1 or anything. When I do
  finally get into X, chances are good, that it crashes within the next
  5 minutes, at least for Ubuntu with Unity. Ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10 run
  stable on this machine (though Unity is incredibly slow in 12.10 due
  to lacking graphics acceleration).

  I think this is a graphics problem of the "Intel Corporation Atom
  Processor D2xxx/N2xxx Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)" at the
  kernel level. Any chance that I can provide any error logs from my
  crashing liveusb?
