[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 399821] Re: [i845] karmic fails to initialise display on boot. 2.6.31-3 + drm + Intel 845G
Further problems with the new 2.6.35 kernel - 2.6.35-1-generic #1-Ubuntu: If I boot with no parameters passed, I am unable even to ssh to the box (as I have been able to with earlier kernels) If I boot with nomodeset paramater, I get ubuntu running in low-graphics mode with the following errors: (EE) intel(0): No kernel modesetting driver detected. (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. followed by no display but I can ssh to the machine. It seems that whatever fixed the problem in #53 hasn't been applied to newer kernels. If someone can show me where to start investigating this, I'd be happy to do so.

Hi, It appears that this is a perennial problem with new kernels as have just upgraded to maverick with kernel version: 2.6.34-3-generic #10-Ubuntu and the problem resurfaced. However, I don't receive the message about disabling drm in my dmesg as in comment #53 above and I imagine this is the problem.

Hi, Just to clarify: The mainline kernel works fine. I can test the latest mainline but it won't be for a day or so. None of the Ubuntu kernels work since rc2. All patches which I've applied have been to the Ubuntu kernel source (by downloading the linux- source package). I hope this is the right way of doing this. I've tried the patch I mentioned and also those suggested on upstream bug 22980 at comment #7 (although I'm not sure how to apply the third patch as it doesn't seem to be a patch to the kernel source code). All kernels boot correctly if I pass the nomodeset parameter.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 399821] Re: [i845] karmic fails to initialise display on boot. 2.6.31-3 + drm + Intel 845G
I had more time than I orginally thought today to do some further testing (and lots of googling) and have made some progress. The mainline 2.6.31 rc3 kernel worked correctly. I can boot the problematic rc3 kernel by passing the nomodeset parameter. If I pass the VGA = ask parameter to the rc2 kernel I get a list of VGA modes. If I do the same thing with the rc3 kernel I get the same list of VGA modes plus a second set of VESA modes (none of which appear to work). That led me to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video- vesa/+bug/401214 and I've tried turning debugging on as suggested with: echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug Although didn't get any extra output. A little more searching led to a very similar looking bug report: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20115 with a patch attached at comment #50. I'm now at a point where I probably need to learn how to patch a kernel which I won't get chance to do today. However, at least it looks like this has been narrowed down to a problem with KMS. Alternatively, I could be headed in completely the wrong direction as this stuff is a bit over my head. Let me know if there's anything else I can try. I'll post any further results.
