[Bug 526242] Re: GDM switches LCD to blank screen

 

** Description changed:

  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.
