Comment 117 for bug 12637

This is a follow up.

I installed "ubuntu-8.10-desktop-amd64.iso".
I rebooted several times.
no problem

I then ran:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic
I rebooted several times.
no problem

I then ran:
$ sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.27-11-generic
I rebooted and
the dimness appeared

I installed "ubuntu-8.10-desktop-amd64.iso" again.
I rebooted several times and each time no problem.

Then I ran:
$ sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.27-11-generic
I rebooted and the dimness again appeared.

I the "ONLY" other thing I did was connect to the internet through my router.
So as far as I am concerned the problem is created with the "linux-image-2.6.27-11-generic" install.
