  • Intel dual core 3. GHz
  • Intel motherboard
  • 160GB HDD
  • 2 GB DDR2 RAM

I'm using onboard graphics Intel 82945G Express chipset. No external graphic card.

The problem here is a common problem with Open Source drivers and kernel mode setting. You can disable it using:

sudo echo options i915 modeset=0 > /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf
