[Bug 643045] [NEW] intel netbook with kernel 2.6.35.4 and newer does not boot

[Magnus Kulke]

Public bug reported:

i am using an lenovo s10-3 netbook (which has pretty much a stock
netbook configuration), which i updated from lucid to maverick (i386).
The last 2.6.35 kernel which is working, is 2.6.35.3-maverick
(2.6.35-02063503-generic) from the mainline ppa. when i boot
2.6.35-22-generic (latest maverick kernel as of this writing) or
2.6.35.4 from mainline ppa i get stuck with a black screen and a
blinking prompt. i did download the daily maverick livecd and there was
the same behaviour when trying to boot from it. when i boot without
"quiet splash" from the livecd i can see it stalls after the message
"[drm] initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810". nomodeset does not seem to help
either. i tried the lates 2.6.36rc kernels from the mainline ppa for
maverick, but it was the same with those kernels.

specs from my netbook:
