Title:
[KM400] Black screen after boot, no text console possible
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome
I have upgraded my Xubuntu karmic installation to lucid to test the
alpha release of lucid. After the upgrade, which went smoothly, I
rebooted the machine. I expected to see the GDM login screen
eventually, but all I got was a completely black screen. Even the
backlight of the LCD panel of my laptop was off. Pressing the
(CTRL+)ALT+Fx key combinations did not (visibly) result in a change to
the virtual terminal that corresponds to the F-key pressed.
When I rebooted to use the recovery mode/single mode, I found that I
couldn't get a text console even then. I was able to log in via SSH,
which works perfectly and allowed me to run apport-cli from this
machine. Furthermore, I could get a full graphical desktop by using
vnc4server on this laptop and a vnc viewer on another machine, which
confirms that the install is basically working. Therefore, I'm
guessing that it has to do with the X server or driver, also because
I've had some graphics-related trouble with this particular chipset
that is inside my laptop before (VIA KM400).Still, it also might be
due to this new boot splash method ubuntu is apparently using, but I'm
not sure. (EDIT: changed 'Affects' to plymouth package. Have removed
Xorg but still no TTYs)
WORKAROUND: blacklist both viafb and vga16fb.
