Tried to install ubuntu 12.10 on that machine but failed. The kernel in the installation iso is 3.5.0-17, there is no i915-hsw module.
So I tried to do a fresh installation of 12.04.2. The xorg stack is lts- quantal. Without 2:2.20.9-0ubuntu2.3~precise1 in precise-proposed, this issue can be reproduced. After installing this package, this issue is fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1202524 Title: [lts] Switch VGA mode will become black screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/1202524/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
