Bug confirmed on fresh 7.10 final installation $ uname -sr Linux 2.6.22-14-generic $ lspci | grep 'VGA' 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
but can neither confirme John Yate's fix nor loading it manually. Black ttys untill gdm comes up on tty7. ~$ lsmod | grep fbcon ~$ ~$ sudo modprobe fbcon ~$ lsmod | grep fbcon fbcon 41760 0 tileblit 3584 1 fbcon font 9344 1 fbcon bitblit 6912 1 fbcon still no change. kernel boot options in menu.lst: root=UUID=... ro splash vga=791 Only work around is removing vga= option gives back ttys as desired. But vga= is needed to show usplash from right after grub passes control. Note: Had issues with initramfs not showing usplash (see Bug #157620). Solutions involves update-usplash-theme (i.e. update-initramfs) if that helps. -- tty[1-6] are active but display nothing in Gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129910 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
