Public bug reported:
This is on an HP Compaq 8200 Elite all-in-one, with an Intel i3-2100.
The live CD for Oneiric boots to a black screen. I instead installed
Lucid, which works fine, but without proprietary graphics abilities.
Upgrade to Natty resulted in a black screen on boot again. Booting with
the Lucid kernel still works fine.
I tried installing the 3.1 kernel, thinking the issue was supposed to
have been fixed, but it too boots to a black screen. For now I'm
running Natty with the Lucid 2.6.32-28 kernel. I'm afraid to even try
updating to Oneiric lest apt remove the one working kernel I have
left... Especially since my experiment with 3.1 failed.
It would seem that the sandy bridge support in the newer kernels is
broken, but the generic support works if one boots to a kernel prior to
sandy bridge "support".
Thanks for your help everyone!
