Hi, this is a copy of more data I sent to Bugzilla.Xorg More comments about the BUG... With my hardware (Dell inspiron 510m, video Intel 855GM):
a) With version 2.1.0 of the driver and kernel 2.6.21.6, it works. However, lid resume does not work. I use acpid and vbetool to switch off and on the screen when I close or open the screen. I can switch between text and graph mode. It is interesting that with previous i810 driver, when starting or ending Xorg, there were some "noise" in the screen, seemed that videoram was not cleared (zeroed). Now the transition between console and X is completely OK. Here are relevant parts of Xorg.log: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ grep '^(WW)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log (WW) Including the default font path /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc,/usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi,/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType.

But when rebooting or halting, the "black screen of dead" happens when X is shutting down, and I have to do a hard reset (the computer completely freezes). If I try to switch to console, black screen and freeze. The black screen effect in both cases seems to switch off the LCD. The log is the same that in the previous case. Please tell me if this information is accurate, or your want me to do further testing.
