Updating status: same regressed "black screen" continues to present in kernels through 2.6.38-27 (inclusive, with exception of 2.6.38-rc6-16).
Kernel 2.6.38-rc2 continues to boo-16t cleanly (without the "black screen).
With exception of kernel 2.6.38-rc6-16, each "black screen" at boot is recoverable by lid closure/reopening.
Install of kernel 2.6.39-27 (the "release" kernel?) exhibits the same "black screen" behavior. As this behavior has been presented in every kernel since 2.6.38-rc2, I am posting to this bug. In bug 29278 (freedesktop), allusion was made to possible incorporation in kernel 2.6.39. Apparently, the various commits did not make this cut, as the problem persists. The problem is not just the recoverable "black screen" during boot, but more significantly, the severe compromise of power management, as suspend, hibernation, lid closure and display brightness/power manifested. I have amended the bug title text to reflect the current kernel. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
