Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.2.1-2
Severity: important
First, I am not sure if the problem is actually in
xserver-xorg-video-intel, it might be in xserver-xorg-core, as I
couldn't get any other video driver (i810, vesa, vga) to work either.
The combination that works is:
xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12lenny2
xserver-xorg-input-kbd 1:1.1.0-4
xserver-xorg-input-mouse 1:1.1.1-3
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.1.0-2
the combination that is broken is:
xserver-xorg-core 2:1.4.1~git20080131-4
xserver-xorg-input-kbd 1:1.2.2-3
xserver-xorg-input-mouse 1:1.2.3-2
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.2.1-2
(the mouse and kbd drivers need to be changed because of dependencies,
but I don't think they are the problem).
Now for the problem:
Hardware:
Display: Eizo S2431W TFT display with 1920x1200 resolution connected
via DVI cable.
Graphics Chipset: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics
Controller (rev 02)
With xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.1.0 this worked fine (except that the
timing was slightly off and the display reported 1202 vertical lines -
easily corrected with xrandr). After the upgrade to 2.2.1 the login
screen of gdm is not visible - the display is flickering very rapidly,
showing whitish clouds (which are probably an optical illusion induced by
the flickering). The display reports 1920x1200 at 60 Hz. If I start the
X server from the command line, the display is completely black, not
even the mouse cursor is visible. Again, the display thinks that the
signal is ok. I can switch between the text and graphics display, so the
X server hasn't crashed.
