Kubuntu 5.10 (Breezy) Notes

• Marc Reich originally reported a kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!
• Raf van de Vreugde reports no kernel panic.  While sound does not work, video does after:
  1. Select another session with CTRL-ALT F1
  2. log on with your user
  3. go to /etc/X11
  4. sudo pico xorg.conf
  5. Scroll to the "Screen" section
  6. Change for DefaultDepth 24 to 16
  7. CTRL-O and Enter
  8. CTRL-X
  9. Shutdown with sudo shutdown -r now
• Joshua suggests, in place of step 9 above, to press CTRL-ALT-F7, then at the broken display, CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE.  This will restart the GUI
