[Bug 515732] Re: Kernel modesetting makes the screen go blank

 

** Summary changed:

- The screen turns off after GRUB
+ Kernel modesetting makes the screen go blank

** Description changed:

  The screen goes COMPLETELY black after GRUB. It doesn't just show a
  black image, it dies completely. The HDD light continues to blink for a
  while, and it seems that everything is loaded behind the veil of
  blackness.
  
  This happens with kernels 2.6.32-11-generic, and 2.6.32-12-generic(The
  latest kernel at the time of writing). It does not happen with kernels
  2.6.32-10-generic and earlier, though it should probably be mentioned
  that nothing but VESA has been able to get me to a GUI so far.
  
- EDIT: It works with nomodeset, but this definitely isn't optimal. Also,
- I'm back to normal graphics drivers with the latest kernel.
