I had same issue until I saw this error using kernel 2.6.31 in the kernel.log ; i915 0000:00:02.0: LVDS-1: no EDID data fb: conflicting fb hw usage inteldrmfb vs EFI VGA - removing generic driver
so did a search on google and found that the framebuffer that the kernel has for default is the "efifb" and that i915 or inteldrmfb was trying to by the fb , then seens I had to customized my dstd and change the cpu to atom following this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1341580 I downloaded the source for 2.6.32 recompile my kernel with the option CONFIG_FB_EFI=NO and also but sure if necessary CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS=NO and then add the kms manually in grub kernel options as i915:modeset=1. And now my screen is correctly detected no more errors of EDID nor conflicting fb. ** Attachment added: "my config netbook vaio vpcw120al Atom" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/42996559/config-2.6.32.10%2Bdrm33.1 -- [Lucid] blank screen after gdm login intel 945GM works with nomodeset https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551358 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
