[Bug 605667] Re: Kernel Panic on Live USB Boot, Intel Graphics not working

 

Please update your Maverick install first:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Then remove/backup your xorg.conf file:
sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
(you can revert with 'sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak /etc/X11/xorg.conf' if you need to)
And then reboot without any boot options (quiet, splash, xforcevesa, or nomodeset). This should recreate the bug with the default settings (quiet and splash just add noise, so even though they're default, removing them gives a cleaner debugging scenario). After this freezes, reboot using 'xforcevesa nomodeset' so you can get a usable desktop, and upload /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old to this bug report. This should give us the Xorg.0.log for the broken default boot, which is basically the complete Xorg.0.log you took snippets from in comment #1.

Thank you for taking the time to help bugfix Maverick while it's still
in its development phase. If you have any questions about these
instructions, please let me know and I'll try and explain them better.

As a sidenote, booting with 'nomodeset' gave you a kernel panic because
the -intel driver in Maverick doesn't support User Mode Settings anymore
(only KMS), so when you tried to boot without KMS, the kernel got very
confused and gave you a kernel panic.

** Summary changed:

- Kernel Panic on Live USB Boot, Intel Graphics not working
+ [arrandale] Maverick boots to a black screen: "(EE) intel(0): No kernel modesetting driver detected."
