2.6.35-20 blacklists KMS on the problematic cards. X is then supposed to fall back to vesa. If it doesn't, a bug should be filed for that. If falling back to vesa has enough problems of its own, that decision might be reversed.
i915.modeset=1 will override the blacklist, so you can always turn KMS back on with the new kernel. Also, my own graphics-fixes kernel undoes the blacklist. -- MASTER: [i845] GPU lockup (apport-crash) (Should KMS be blacklisted?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
