Hi Eric, At last I got my laptop back from repair. Yes, using http://people.canonical.com/~ycmiao/lp668554/linux- image-2.6.35-23-generic_2.6.35-23.37_i386.deb the laptop boots without any problem with a display but still I can't enable advanced desktop effects. Further edid-get still reports erroneous output as before.
Concluding all, The results are similar to linux-image-2.6.36-999-generic_2.6.36-999.201010271121_i386.., no improvement from this. ** Attachment added: "Still not able to get EDID data from monitor.." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/668554/+attachment/1757386/+files/edid_2.6.35-23.37_i386 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/668554 Title: Blank display at startup in Sony Vaio CW series -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
