[Bug 1536567] Re: i915 stop working after linux 4.2.0-21-generic
I started a kernel bisect between Ubuntu-4.2.0-21.25 and
Ubuntu-4.2.0-22.27 . The kernel bisect will require testing of about
7-10 test kernels.
I built the first test kernel, up to the following commit:
efe9c433bb69890e7b925d845ce9443023bc882e
The test kernel can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1536567
Can you test that kernel and report back if it has the bug or not? I
will build the next test kernel based on your test results.
Thanks in advance

Bug description:
Hello,
After updating the linux kernel of my Ubuntu 15.10 from 4.2.0-21 to 4.2.0.22
I was unable to get to XFCE and slim login manager, I was stuck on a black screen
with nothing displayed (no text/graphics). Same issue with latest 4.2.0.25.
When I go back to 4.2.0-21 everything is working perfectly.
So something is "broken" with i915 module starting 4.2.0.22 and newer.
After some research online, I managed to make it work even with kernel 4.2.25
by doing this vodoo magic magic. It's not clear what made it work ;-P
