Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
During installation, bootup (plymouth) and while inside X, screen
remains blank. Switching VTs yields no results (screen remains blank).
This was done with today's daily desktop image, amd64: 10.04 (20100412).
I've been able to isolate the issue to possibly somewhere in modesetting
with the i915 driver, here are the tested cases:
- Disabling modesetting with 'nomodeset' as a kernel parameter: boot messages
visible in 'verbose', otherwise nothing on screen, X remains blank.
- Disabling modesetting with 'i915.modeset=0' as a kernel parameter: results
in a kernel oops, after briefly showing a simple "text" splash and showing
corruption of that splash screen. X clearly never comes up, caps/scroll/num
blink.
- Disabling modesetting with 'nomodeset' and switching X drivers to 'vesa':
nothing on screen during boot, up to a working, visible desktop.
