This workaround works. I've read it on the LP bug report as well. I don't know if it has to do with the broken EDID. I've seen much more laptops with broked EDIDs, but this hang does not occur with Intrepid on those machines.--[[User:Gertvdijk|Gertvdijk]] 18:42, 6 November 2008 (CET)

Log out & NVidia

This is a problem between the 177.* drivers and broken Lenovo DFP EDID. You can make it work by increasing timeout in GDM: e.g. set GdmXServerTimeout=45 in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf

This workaround works. I've read it on the LP bug report as well. I don't know if it has to do with the broken EDID. I've seen much more laptops with broked EDIDs, but this hang does not occur with Intrepid on those machines.--Gertvdijk 18:42, 6 November 2008 (CET)

WiFi & HW RFkill
