Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20090628-1 (unstable)
Severity: important
System: Debian Sid
Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-rc8-686 (kernel-archive.buildserver.net/debian-kernel)
Processor: Pentium M, 852GM/855GM

I am using KMS with module i915 modeset=1.
When booting with the latest version  of grub-pc (20090628), after loading 
module i915 modeset=1 the booting process
is no longer shown on the screen until gdm is loaded.
VT screens 1-6 are all showing the gdm login screen although without mouse 
pointer and no keyboard input.
Only VT screen 7 works normally.

When booting with version grub-pc_1.96+20090611-1, the screen is set to high 
resolution and KMS works perfectly.



Hi,

Same thing I said in #534944:

I'm uploading 1.96+20090629-1, which includes some cleanup in the Linux
loader.  It's possible your problem might disappear with this version,
please report.

Note: Try it in text mode first (run "terminal_output console" in GRUB
prompt).  If that _does_ work, try from gfxterm then.

Note2: If you can't wait, the patch you want is:
  svn diff -r 2372:2375 svn://svn.savannah.gnu.org/grub/trunk/grub2

Thanks!

  
I just installed v. 1.96+20090629-1. Unfortunately it doesn't work. The 
bug is still the same as I

previously mentioned. I have to revert to v. 1.96+20090611-1.

Btw, were you using text mode when you tested this?
("terminal_output console" in GRUB command-line)

Does the problem disappear if you disable KMS?

Did you run grub-install after the update?
