It seems to be a bug in drm.ko or i915.ko kernel module.
I have blacklisted intel_ips because of symbols issues.
No problems with drm.ko and i915.ko blacklisted and driver vesa.
If I start without kernel parameters or with "i915.modeset=1
video=LVDS-1:1280x800@60e"
the screen is almost always blank and it requires opening and closing the lid a
certain number of times in order to get the screen back.
If I start the kernel with parameters "i915.modeset=1 video=1280x800@60e"
then the screen is not blank. I guess it is because also the VGA-1 adapter is
turned on even if there is not a vga screen connected. Then I have to manually
correct the screen resolution.
