i915 blackscreen
Posted: 06 Mar 2012, 19:06
Hi and thanks in advance for any help.
I have three different computers all with different intel graphics cards and three different issues (well two issues I guess, since one works properly).
Computer A (Shuttle X50 v1): 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
Computer B (Shuttle X50 v2): 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
Computer C (PioneerPOS StealthTouch-M7): 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
Computer A: Black screen at triggering UDEV events. i915.modeset=0 does get it to boot up, but can't display proper resolutions and uses VESA driver not Intel.
Computer B: Works fine, no perceptible issues.
Computer C: Black screen at triggering UDEV events. i915.modeset=0 does get it to boot up, but the Xserver will only use the VESA driver and does display in native resolutions with no video acceleration. The processor is fast enough on this one I could live with the VESA driver except it needs dual monitor support.
I have searched and searched and searched and found many "solutions" from this forum and many others but none seem to make any difference for me.
Any suggestions would be most helpful.
Thanks, Hugh
