johnlon, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc1 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-1.14 needs-upstream-testing regression- release ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 765438 8086:2a42 [eMachines E527] On startup, the backlight is off on laptop ** Package changed: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton) => (unassigned) ** Summary changed: - 8086:2a42 [gm45] Upgrade to Natty wont load + 8086:2a42 [Acer Aspire 5736Z] Upgrade to Natty wont load -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/759104 Title: 8086:2a42 [Acer Aspire 5736Z] Upgrade to Natty wont load Status in X.org xf86-video-intel: Incomplete Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: xorg I upgraded to Natty via the Update Manager, and got to reboot and clicked on the kernal, and everything went black screen. Nothing works. Tried installing from fresh install, as soon as the cd was put in, screen went black, nothing happened. Funny thing though, I can enter Natty via Use older kernal option, and everything loads, so it works on the old driver, not the new one.
