Comment 0 for bug 515246

During boot it seems the intel-driver(same behaviour on all kernels 2.6.32+ from ubuntu lucid) can't find the monitor of my laptop (see following line from logging).

Jan 31 20:46:46 casper kernel: [ 2.237248] No connectors reported connected with modes

The screen becomes blank during the boot. Starting GDM or switching to a console doesn't help, the screen stays black.

Kernel 2.6.31-14-generic #48 (from karmic) works
