Public bug reported: When using the 2.6.17-5-k7 kernel on my Averatec 3100 laptop after grub the screen goes completely white.
This happens when I use the VIA or VESA drivers in X.org as well. I've never had any problem when using the VESA driver before. The video is fine on the 2.6.15 kernel so I don't think it is directly related to X.org. I used to get this problem on breezy before the VIA drivers were updated. If I used the vesa driver there was no problem. It went away in Dapper and I was able to use the VIA driver. ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- VIA Video Card, Totally White Screen https://launchpad.net/bugs/55676 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
