I don't know if the issue is the same or not, but on my Asus W5G00AE: - I had the issue described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/872652
- Updated to kernel 3.0.0-15 using the update manager. After grub, the screen is black, then I get some very thin vertical lines all over the screen, which slowly fade to black, leaving me with a black screen and no login menu. Tried the 3.0.0-17 kernel proposed here, but without any luck: the result is the same as with 15. I therefore have: - kernel 14 working, but with the bug #872652 (backlight does not work after resuming from screensaver) - kernel 15 and 17 not booting up, yielding thin white vertical lines for a couple of seconds, which fade to black -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/919350 Title: Laptop display blank after update to kernel 3.0.0-15 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/919350/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
