I experienced the same bug after an upgrade from raring to saucy with the same model. I just tested the upstream kernel, but the same bug seems to exist there. I added the corresponding tag.
I can work around the issue by booting into the raring kernel (3.8.0-31), which was still installed after the upgrade. ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1237843 Title: Black screen on primary display on linux 3.11.x Asus UX31a Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Duplicate of this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1195483 I`ve tried every version of Saucy and daily builds of Fedora, and all newer Linux kernels seem to cause this problem on the Asus UX31a laptop.
