Yes the screen will still light up if you disable the i915 kernel
driver. But you're essentially using BIOS graphics then. You would lose:
* High resolution
* Hardware acceleration
* Multi-GPU support
Basically graphical desktops won't work anymore, so you shouldn't
disable the i915 kernel
I do not exclude such a possibility, but I suppose since I definitely
have 2 video cards, then there are problems 2. I opened a separate topic
on i915: # 1964090.
But I would like to make sure that what you say is true. regarding the
dependence of the display on intel.
I may not have enough
Thanks for the bug report.
This is probably not a bug at all since most laptops only have the Intel
GPU wired to the laptop screen. So to disable i915 is to mostly disable
the laptop screen.
I suggest instead of pursuing this bug we should fix the i915
"flickering problem". Please re-enable i915
