I have the same problem with an EliteBook 8440p (base model) with an i5 and the Intel GMA HD. Black screen but the backlight is still on. I was successfully able to install Kubuntu with text mode but the problem occurs when I try to boot Kubuntu. Recovery mode returns the same result, black screen. This is a VERY frustrating problem. I cannot believe that it has not been fixed yet.
4+ months and no fix??? If I knew enough about Linux I would help but I don't. -- [LUCID] Cannot install on eDP laptops such as HP Elitebook 2540p or 8440p https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
