Title:
Black screen when booting without nomodeset
Status in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
It happens intermittently. Some times after a kernel upgrade it boots
fine, but immediately after the screensaver turns on the screen gets
black with the backlight on. After a good boot it returns to booting
to a black screen.
The system is working while the black screen is on. I am able to log
in and shutdown via console (blindly)
I have tried to write dmesg to a file while it is in this mode and I
got this:
