   hi. just installed New Cooking 20110329 on an acer aspire 3515 and xorg-xf86-video-intel driver does not work. caused black screen. Is this a bug or just acer hardware related? The previous xorg intel driver version 2.7.1 worked great.
   cheers.

   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?

   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.
   If you want more feedback post txt files generated from the following commands as attachments to your reply.
   lsmod > lsmod.txt
   cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log > xorg.txt
