Package: linux-image-amd64
Version: 5.10.120-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: a...@users.sourceforge.net
Dear Maintainer,
none of the kernel images show any text output (including encryption prompts)
on any
screen as long as the laptop is on a working docking station. I have to remove
the
computer from the station (or power off the station) so I can tell when to
enter the
harddisk encryption passwords.
It does not matter which display is used for primary output, the effect is the
same. After
Grub, the screen goes blank first with the backlight on, then goes totally dark.
If I enter the encryption passwords blindly and correctly at the right moment,
the kernel
boots without problems.
I have tried video=efifb/i810fb/intelfb/LVDS-1:1366x768@60e etc. to no avail.
Boot messages show up normally without the docking station (and in the logs).
Grub, Wayland, X, Gnome etc. work without problems.

Hi
This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.
If you can reproduce it with
- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports
please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.
Regards,
Salvatore
