Same in -git14 for my E6400 with a GM45 integrated chipset. Mine though has
always printed out the following warning
[Firmware Bug]: Duplicate ACPI video bus devices for the same VGA
controller, please try module parameter "video.allow_duplicates=1"if
the current driver doesn't work.
which seems to have been previously discussed here
