Hi rez, I found this upstream bug, which sounds similar: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6664 The reporter has an Intel 945GM-based system using an i810 driver, where vesa works fine but is seeing screen blanking issues when starting X.
IN the comments of that bug they ask if the issue disappears if the glx module is left out - would you mind trying this? ** Bug watch added: Freedesktop Bugzilla #6664 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6664 ** Also affects: dri (upstream) via https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6664 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- With Intel i810 driver on Dell E1505, switching display causes blank screen. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110379 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
