Hi,
It works well here. Sometimes, I have a black screen at boot because brightness set to 0 just after loading the module; it's a known problem related to acpi & my hardware (eeepc 1005PE). Using keys to change brightness allow me to get display back. Another way is to add
acpi_osi=Linux
into the boot config at kernel line. Maybe the same thing happens to you?Posted 13 years ago # -
during boot, the driver loads, then the boot text shrinks to tiny and covers the left 1/2 of the screen, then black if that makes sense.

I had same problem with nouveau which is a drm module for nvidia card.
After I removed linux-drm I was able to get a 2D screen with the nv driver.
Kernel 2.6.37 has CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS=y
Maybe removing linux-drm will at least give you a 2D screen.
With some kernels adding nomodset or modset=0 to bootcode or blacklisting the drm module will stop the kernel from autoloading it and give you a screen.
Google "intel nomodeset" for more information.
