Reviewing the video this appears to be a mode switch and not a flash of a console. There is no cursor and the backlight appears to turn off. We are expecting to see a mode switch as drm initialises, even if we have a matched resolution as we are also switching tiliing modes and rejigging pipe connectivity. The Intel driver currently does not appear to be able to pick up the current mode as well as other drivers.
The dmesg above also confirms that the driver has initiated a full mode switch as it initialised, and that would be just before plymouth as plymouth enable is triggered off the end of the drm driver initialisation. ** Summary changed: - text console between grub and plymouth in oneiric, with current grub + black flasbetween grub and plymouth in oneiric, with current grub ** Summary changed: - black flasbetween grub and plymouth in oneiric, with current grub + flash to black between grub and plymouth in oneiric, with current grub -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/855764 Title: flash to black between grub and plymouth in oneiric, with current grub To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-flicker-free-boot/+bug/855764/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
