[Bug 600453] Re: [arrandale] [i915] DELL E6510: blank screen on boot (Intel GPU)

 

Hi,

I installed the Natty kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/v2.6.37-natty/ but my DELL E6510 laptop's display is
erroneously detected as a Epson Seiko Corporation 15"@1600x900, so I had
to revert back to the official maverick kernel.

Adding acpi=off to the kernel options was to no avail...

Bug description:
  I am running Ubuntu Linux 10.04 64 bits on a DELL 6510 notebook with
  integrated Intel graphics card. The machine only boots in a low-
  graphics mode. I detected the following error message in the logs:

  (EE) intel(0): No kernel modesetting driver detected

  I used i915,modeset=0 as a kernel option but I am no longer using. The
  xorg.config file I am using is

  Section "Device"
  Identifier "Configured Video Device"
  BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
  Driver "intel"
  Option  "AccelMethod"  "UXA"

  My kernel is
