Subject: 2.6.31-r2: Xorg: Black screen Compared to the other normal brightness problems, with 2.6.31-r2 xorg starts, but there is no image displayed (neither on internal nor external monitor). Switching back to console does not change the status, though hitting ctrlaltdel reboots the system (i.e. still up and running fine). It works with 2.6.30-rc7 (besides sometimes the brightness is broken there). This looks like it might be a post-2.6.30 regression, in which case it might have a separate cause. We're having a lot of problems in this area. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
