The basic problem reported here has indeed been fixed, drm-intel-next now succesfully boots to X. Resuming from suspend is broken for me, too, I haven't tried the shutdown menu options yet though.
I filed these bug reports, reporting the resuming from suspend problems and the flicker I experience during boot. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33439 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33442 The flicker seems to be mostly solved by 2 patches which (accidentally) did not find their way to drm-intel-next. Resuming from suspend seems to be a different issue which is not solved yet. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #33439 http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33439 ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #33442 http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33442 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/600453 Title: [arrandale] [i915] DELL E6510: blank screen on boot (Intel GPU) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
