Hi all,
I run Ubuntu Edgy with all-but-perfect happiness on a Thinkpad T60. Unfortunately, once in a while the mouse cursor will change to a black square (more rarely, a dotted vertical line) and the keyboard will lock up, forcing me to hard reboot. The mouse can still move the (now useless) cursor around, but only on the primary monitor, and I am unable to use the keyboard to restart the x server or switch to a console.
This only happens when I use the machine in its dock, with an external LCD in a dual-monitor config, and failures tend to come in twos or threes (i.e., when I reboot, it's likely to happen again once or twice, and then not again for a few days). I also use a KVM switch, but the problems occur with or without it. The lockups happen about 75% of the time on the "loading desktop" phase of KDE startup, but have also occurred within a few minutes of login.
I use fglrx binary drivers: hardware accelleration and multi-monitor work fine otherwise.
The only suspicious logs I have seen involved AIGLX, but disabling it didn't help.
Any ideas out there?
