Hello JukeUK,

I have only experience of one graphics card on Linux, see thread a few below yours. Hopefully some other members will be able to help.
To start I will try to help.

Which browser is being used when this occurs please ?
Have you tested if the same occurs when using a different browser ?

Do you have the restricted extras installed ?

Have you run/can you run Memtest86 http://www.memtest86.com/  to test the memory ?

Do you have an option in the drivers for other/ open source driver ?
It may be possible to purge the Intel driver and try this and see if the same occurs.

Whilst looking around a little for you I noticed with some aspects of this Intel driver if upgrades are done on ubuntu based OS it damages the install, and the solutions found were a clean install of the OS.
Have you installed the driver and then upgraded it or the Intel supporting application?
I am not saying to do a clean install as you can try the above, and many other things first, it is so members are aware of details.

Hi,

I've just installed LL 2.2 on an HP 6910p laptop.  When I play videos on Youtube or go to Google Inbox,the webpage will become unresponsive after a while and then the screen will go blank.  The only way I know to get the screen back on is to do a hard reset.  The video card in the laptop is an Intel X3100.  I have tried disabling the screen saver but this hasn't had any effect.

Has anyone else experienced this or know how to cure the problem. I have noticed that the screen flickers occasionally so I think it may be a driver problem. I am very new to  Linux so if any logs or versions that are needed then I will need some direction of where or how to find them

 Thanks.
