Very likely a FAQ but I can't find it right now: wanted to try linux 3.2.0-rc7 (by emerging git-sources) ... used my old config and it built OK. It also boots OK but very soon it gets simply black, no console, no xdm. I am able to ssh into it, can't find anything obvious. framebuffer stuff? This is my thinkpad L520, with intel graphics. Does someone has a pointer for me? Thanks, Stefan
I had a similar problem. I had selected the intel hardware iommu as default. This caused my X to completely stay black. Systemlog showed something about dma and drna (if i remember correctly).
try to disable intel hardware iommu, if you have it selected.
