** Description changed:

  When using a gma500 based netbook with psb_gfx driver (shipped by default 
with kernel => 3.x)
- if the option "vt.handoff=7" is enabled (by default) the psb_gfx driver 
cannot initialize itself correctly ending up in a blank screen instead of X. 
+ if the option "vt.handoff=7" is enabled (by default) the psb_gfx driver 
cannot initialize itself correctly ending up in a blank screen instead of X.
  
  I believe the KMS part of psb_gfx is not able to create the framebuffer
  and use it on VT7 with the fbdev xorg driver.
  
- Removing vt.handoff=7 settings from grub (temporary or by editing
- /etc/grub.d/10_linux) the system load correctly.
+ + tried nightly iso image and already tried mainline kernels.
  
+ WORKAROUND: Removing vt.handoff=7 settings from grub (temporary or by
+ editing /etc/grub.d/10_linux) the system load correctly.
  
- if necessary I can provide further info, let me know.
