[Bug 371420] Re: Video corruption after 9.04 upgrade

 

Great figuring out the "lspci" command. You just needed to put a space
between "lspci" and "-vvnn," so it would be "lspci -vvnn." But we have
what we need from that command now.

Can you also post this files as attachments:
/var/log/Xorg.0.log
/etc/X11/xorg.conf

you can submit them as an email attachment in the reply to this or by
going to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/371420, click "Add a
comment/attachment," and upload the file through that interface.


Don't try this yet, but we may do something like the fix here to see if it will work:

** Package changed: ubuntu => xserver-xorg-video-sis (Ubuntu)

** Description changed:

- I'm only a Ubuntu user.  I'm not an especialist. I use Ubuntu since 6.06, always accepting the upgrades for new versions, without any troubles, up to the 8.04.  When I tried the upgrade to 8.10, most of pictures (images, photos, films, the original wallpaper that apears the shadow of the monkey, etc.) was "contaminated" by a lot of red micropoints, mainly at the lines of the details of the picture (for instance, going around the monkey shadow).

  Two heavy users of Linux tried to help me without success.
  I've also tried the option of a new instalation of the sistem without success.  When I decided to reinstall the 8.04 the image troubles desapeared.
  I thought that with 9.04 the trouble should desapear but it has continued.
  
- Thanks,
