Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2009 17:53:19 -0700 From: Jonathan McDowell <noodles@...th.li> To: dri-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: X hangs with blank screen on 2.6.32-rc4 / Intel 915GM Hi. Trying 2.6.32-rc4 on my Toshiba R200 laptop running Debian Squeeze leads to a blank screen with a flashing cursor in the top left when X starts. If startup in such a way that X isn't automatically started the console is fine, but starting X manually still leads to the hang. The machine seems unresponsive at this point - I can't switch to a normal console and the laptop fan comes on in a manner that suggests the CPU is chugging away. 2.6.31.4 works fine. X versions are as per up-to-date Squeeze - Xorg 7.4 with Intel 2.9.0. I tried without VGA_ARB as that seemed to be the largest related change that might affect X but not the console, but it didn't make a difference. dmesg from non X boot, Kernel config and lspci -vv output at: http://the.earth.li/~noodles/i915-32-rc-x-broken/ I don't really have time at present to get involved in a full bisect, but I can potentially try over the weekend if there's nothing more obvious to try first.
