Comment 3 Jesse Barnes 2008-01-10 23:32:57 UTC
Can you attach the X log from the startup?

Comment 4 David Wilson 2008-01-14 00:03:50 UTC
Unfortunately not. The 755 was a loan system for testing and I no longer have
access to it.

If and when we start buying Optiplex 755 systems I will attempt to reproduce the
problem (although we tend to get systems with the optional ATI video card so are
unlikely to be directly affected).

Comment 5 Matěj Cepl 2008-01-14 13:24:59 UTC
OK, in meanwhile I have no other choice than to close this bug as
INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Please, reopen, if you have more information about this issue
and the way how to reproduce it.
