This bug still exists in linux-image-2.6.32-22.33. The laptop will, however, boot successfully on the 2.6.33-020633-generic kernel from ppa.launchpad.net/kernel-ppa/.
I'll attach the results of apport-collect shortly, while the laptop's booted on the .33 kernel. ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: Regression from 2.6.32-19. On this Gateway M275 convertible tablet (i855 chipset & video), -21 will boot, but either at the point of displaying the "Ubuntu" splash or just before, the screen will go black and it's not possible to switch to a pty. Magic SysRq key does not appear to be functional either. I can boot successfully into recovery mode, and X will come up if I have it use a generic display configuration. With -19 it works as expected.
