I can confirm that the image I downloaded yesterday from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-intel-next/current/ that is linux-image-2.6.38-997-generic_2.6.38-997.201102120912_i386.deb is the one that works best for me so far: I've finally stopped using 2.6.36-rc5 with the 900ms patch. X comes up fine, the full HD panel works (and it's even dithered correctly!), and suspend/resume works also. -- 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
