[Bug 516909] [NEW] entire desktop environment locks up in 9.10, i3-530 proc, built-in graphics

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I recently built a machine, i3-530 processor, built-in graphics,
Gigabyte H55M-UD2H motherboard.

I installed ubuntu 9.10 64-bit fresh on the machine.  I started
experiencing locks within GNOME where the entire desktop environment is
frozen.  Can't move the mouse, keyboard num lock doesn't work, but the
machine is still running -- I can ping/ssh to it, etc.

Within a few minutes, a stack trace is dumped to /var/log/messages.

Easiest way to reproduce is just to enter Screensaver Preferences, and
click on anything but the "blank screen."  It happens 100% of the time.

ctrl-alt-f1, ctrl-alt-backspace: does nothing. Mouse pointer doesn't
move. Keyboard LED doesn't change. I can ssh.

keith@newb:~$ lspci -nn | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Clarkdale Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0042] (rev 12)

Attached: stack trace, Xorg.0.log and Xorg.0.log.old.  All in one file
because I can't do multiple attachments.

Thanks for taking a look at this.  Forums posts from all over indicate
that a lot of people are having this issue, but perhaps with different
graphics chipsets than mine.
