[Bug 631412] Re: [maverick] - Xorg fails to load with "nomodeset" kernel parameter

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  Some notebooks need the "nomodeset acpi_backlight = vendor" kernel boot
  time option to make screen brigthness adjustable by Fn keys (I have a
  Toshiba Satelltie T130). With this option xorg failes to load. Without
  this screen is always at a maximal brightness. This workaround was OK in
  lucid, now in maverick it doesn't work.
