Description .silent 2010-04-08 18:45:58 UTC

Screen makes blank during boot the new gentoo-sources-2.6.32-gentoo-r7
There was no problem with kernels before this "stable" release. Now it works only with nomodeset parameter.

Comment 2 .silent 2010-04-08 20:49:03 UTC

The same problem with the latest gentoo-sources kernel (sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.33)

Comment 3 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev

2010-04-08 23:08:31 UTC

This looks the same as https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15030

But they say it's fixed in 2.6.33.  Can you test with vanilla-sources-2.6.33.2.

On failure, it might be worth testing the latest git-sources and participating in the already opened upstream bug.

Comment 4 .silent 2010-04-09 06:53:54 UTC

Thank you for response.

The same problem with vanilla-sources-2.6.33.2.
I'll try to test it with latest git-sources at evening (gmt+3), and write a result here.

Comment 5 .silent 2010-04-09 20:42:03 UTC

There is no problem with git-sources-2.6.34_rc3-r8, thank you.
I'll wait for for stable 2.6.34 with this kernel.

Comment 6 Aron Dobson 2010-05-26 07:32:09 UTC

Hi! I had the same problem, when KMS enabled with 2.6.32*. I solved it by compiling the i915 driver into the kernel (i didn't worked as a module).

Comment 7 Aron Dobson 2010-05-26 08:08:15 UTC

AAARrgh!  sorry, i had 2 typo's in 2 lines....
So what i wanted to say is, that i had the same problems using 2.6.33*,
and IT wasn't working as a module only...

Comment 8 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev

2010-06-16 23:49:33 UTC

Can someone confirm that this works with 2.6.34, please.

Comment 9 Ira Snyder 2010-07-24 22:01:06 UTC

Using gentoo-sources-2.6.34-r2, I get a blank screen on boot. Building i915 and intel_agp into the kernel fixed the problem. So this is still broken.

I was previously using 2.6.31-gentoo-r6, with both i915 and intel_agp as modules. It worked without issues.
