[Bug 526242] [NEW] unable to start X (via GDM or manually)
Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
I do not know when this problem started, unfortunately - it could have been a recent upload or one a while ago.
Basically gdm would switch the LCD to a blank screen.
I managed to boot the system into text mode, and try starting X manually
and the same thing would happen.
I am able to, using the xorg.conf.failsafe configuration get X working.
But that is 1024x768 with the Vesa driver rather than the native
resolution of the LCD (1280x800).
Running X (with the Intel) driver switches the screen to black and none
of the key on the laptop respond any longer, I'm at a loss as to how to
debug this.
Any suggestions appreciated.
