Public bug reported:
This can be similar to bug #877278
I have a Dell Latitude E6410 w/docking station, with video output
redirected to an external LCD panel. After a clean install of 11.10 and
a reboot the screen remain blank, except for the X cursor. If I open
Dell's cover and I use the integrated screen, I can see some corruption
(the o.s. list can not be read) and finally the lxde spash screen.
Solution: uncomment the line "GRUB_TERMINAL=console" in
/etc/default/grub.conf and then run grub-update. After these two steps,
the boot screen is no longer corrupted (I can see o.s. list correctly)
and X start just fine, both on the integrated display and my external
LCD panel.
Thanks.
