Hi, I'm also having this bug. The screen blanks out directly after grub loads the kernel.
My PC is a HP EliteBook 8440p, with the graphic card on the Intel cpu chip (or something like that). 32bit Ubuntu 11.10. Here's the little information I managed to gather in the short time I have : > lspci -vvknn 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0046] (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:172a] Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx+ Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Latency: 0 Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 44 Region 0: Memory at d0000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M] Region 2: Memory at c0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] Region 4: I/O ports at 5058 [size=8] Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled] Capabilities: [90] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit- Address: fee0c00c Data: 4189 Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI+ D1- D2- AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-) Status: D0 NoSoftRst- PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- Capabilities: [a4] PCI Advanced Features AFCap: TP+ FLR+ AFCtrl: FLR- AFStatus: TP- Kernel driver in use: i915 Kernel modules: i915 > lscpu Architecture: i686 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 4 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-3 Thread(s) per core: 2 Core(s) per socket: 2 CPU socket(s): 1 Vendor ID: GenuineIntel CPU family: 6 Model: 37 Stepping: 5 CPU MHz: 1199.000 BogoMIPS: 4787.89 Virtualization: VT-x L1d cache: 32K L1i cache: 32K L2 cache: 256K L3 cache: 3072K Best regards, Stéphane. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/919350 Title: Laptop display blank after update to kernel 3.0.0-15 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/919350/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
