Title:
i915 stop working after linux 4.2.0-21-generic
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hello,
After updating the linux kernel of my Ubuntu 15.10 from 4.2.0-21 to 4.2.0.22
I was unable to get to XFCE and slim login manager, I was stuck on a black
screen
with nothing displayed (no text/graphics). Same issue with latest 4.2.0.25.
When I go back to 4.2.0-21 everything is working perfectly.
So something is "broken" with i915 module starting 4.2.0.22 and newer.
After some research online, I managed to make it work even with kernel 4.2.25
by doing this vodoo magic magic. It's not clear what made it work ;-P
