This bug report may be closed, but the bug itself definitely is not. I just installed Xubuntu 16.04, and of course I was stuck with black screen until I added "nomodeset" to grub (as I've done with the past 10+ versions of Ubuntu). Unfortunately, this time my max resolution is 1024x758, and those ar the few times I can get past boot.
Evidently this has something to do with X being taken out of the loop as far as loading the video drivers... correct? The kernel does this now, but seems to do it very badly. Anyway to reopen this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/912397 Title: Intel HD Graphics "No Device Detected" Status in Linux: Fix Released Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Intel HD Graphics is not recognized by kernel 3.0.0.14. Other kernels I've tried on Ubuntu 11.10: 2.6.39 3.0.0.12 3.1.4 3.1.6 All of them must be started with "nomodeset". If this is not done, I get a black screen. With nomodeset the display can run at 1280x1024, with vesa driver. It's a full HD display and is supposed to run at 1920x1080. With "nomodeset" and with a xorg.conf using "intel" driver, when X starts I get "no device detected" error, falling back to console. I've tried lastest version of other distros with the same result: OpenSUSE 12.1, Fedora 16, Bodhi 1.3, Ubuntu Precise 12.04 alpha, CentOS 6.2, Extix 9, and i don't remember if anyone else. I've tried too the 3.2 rc4 and rc7 kernel on Ubuntu 11.10, and those works better: nomodeset is not needed and I get full 1920x1080 resolution, but it's very unstable because the video turns off and on constantly (or turns into black), about 5 seconds each. I've read in a lot of forums that the Intel HD Graphics are supported since 2.6.3x kernel, and must work ok too with 3.x, but it is failing with this specification. Even I tried the http://ppa.launchpad.net/glasen/intel-driver as suggested in several forums. cat /proc/version_signature ---> Ubuntu 3.0.0-14.23-generic 3.0.9 sudo lspci -vk 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell Device 0511 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 46 Memory at fe000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M] Memory at d0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] I/O ports at f000 [size=64] Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled] Capabilities: [90] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit- Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [a4] PCI Advanced Features Kernel modules: i915 sudo lshw -C video *-display UNCLAIMED description: VGA compatible controller product: 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller vendor: Intel Corporation physical id: 2 bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0 version: 09 width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: msi pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list configuration: latency=0 resources: memory:fe000000-fe3fffff memory:d0000000-dfffffff ioport:f000(size=64) The machine is a DELL INSPIRON ALL IN ONE 2320 i3 2100 CPU One post to have a read is: http://www.grputland.com/2011/12/ubuntu-1204-alpha-1-sandy-bridge.html It is the same problem as I describe it here.
