[Bug 561802] Re: [i915] blank screen on Latitude E6410

[Michael Elkins]

Hardware:
Latitude E6410
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)

Kernel: 
linux-image-2.6.32-25-generic-pae  2.6.32-25.43

With stock boot params "quiet splash", the backlight comes on, but the
screen is black almost immediately after hitting return in grub2.  I can
hear the GNOME sound when gdm starts up, so the machine is still
running, but the screen stays black.

With boot param i915.modeset=0 I can see the kernel message text until X
starts, then the screen goes black with the backlight still on, but the
kernel panics and I see the two flashing numlock and capslock lights
blinking.  Machine is unresponsive.
