Works now again after the latest upgrades (kernel? and/or X-server).

Some workaround is to change /etc/X11/xorg.conf to:
Driver "vesa"
# Driver "intel"
(of course, that's only possible by booting an old version using a USB stick!)
and to append "nomodeset" to the kernel boot line in grub. AFAICS, both of 
them are required.

Unfortunately, this means of course, that you'll end up with a blurry screen 
and no accelerated graphics

Cheers,
Reinhold

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 484900] [NEW] After upgrade to karmic, Xorg will boot with display blank, and no reaction to keypresses (e.g. Alt+Ctrl+1 shows no reaction)

2009-11-18 Thread reinhold
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

After upgrading Kubuntu to karmic (from jaunty), my computer (a Fujitsu-
Siemens Esprimo Q5020, small desktop) will not boot into Xorg. The boot
splash is displayed correctly, but as soon as Xorg starts, the screen
becomes completely black (every time). Trying to switch to the terminals
(e.g. Ctrl+Alt+1) shows no reaction, only Ctrl+Alt+Del reboots.

Booting into failsafe mode shows the exact same behavior.
So, basically there is no way to get into my system any more (except booting 
from an old kubuntu 8.04 installation disk that I had lying around).

here are some technical details:

-) Xorg.0.log is attached

-) Will attach kdm.log

-) lspci:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile PM965/GM965/GL960 Memory 
Controller Hub (rev 03)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated 
Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82566MM Gigabit Network 
Connection (rev 03)
00:1a.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI 
Controller #4 (rev 03)
[...]

-) The video driver in Xorg.conf is "intel".

-) /var/log/dmesg shows normal startup until the X server crashes:
Nov 18 17:10:47 curie ntpdate[2568]: adjust time server 91.189.94.4 offset
