Well, you were right again Alan before when you point me that it could be some problem on the brightness of the display. After several hours of testing installing packages and again starting experimenting the same behavior (it happened after installing the Sid eglibc suite of packages that comprise libc-bin, libc6, libc6-i686 and locales version 2.10.1-5 but going back to the Squeeze version didn't fix the problem) on one boot with the black display I touched the brightness control key of the 901 (Fn+F4) and it started to shows up the screen finally. What amaze me was that I didn't thought that the computer will keep the brightness state of the display even when you turn off the computer and then turn it on so the Asus screen at the beginning of the boot process isn't shown because of the black screen product of the brightness setting. So, there's still some problem when I shutdown the system from the Gnome desktop environment that puts the brightness state of the display at the lower level (turning it black) that I should try to see what is provoking it that doesn't happens when I shutdown the system from the GDM login manager or a tty console. But at least I know what the behavior is and maybe someone could point me to which package could be messing with the brightness setting. I think that gnome-power-manager with devicekit-power is a good candidate as is gnome-screensaver, but I'm not so sure really.
