[Bug 431812] Re: i915: black screen on boot

Hi, I have just upgrade my Jaunty to Karmic Koala, and get a completely
black screen after boot.

I have tried adding "i915.modeset=0" (without the quotes) to the end of
the line in grub that starts with "kernel", and ending with "splash",
and then pressing enter, followed by "b". The computer starts booting,
but I end up with a black screen again.

Is there any way to fix this? I've read that I can't revert to Jaunty
either, but I would really like to use my system again!

Thanks very much for you help!
