Bug Description
Thinkcenter (8171-21U) + GeoForce8400 PCI-E crashes on boot; screen blank, keyboard non response (Caps lock does not light/de-light) and processor fan increases in speed. Removing GFX card from system allows it to boot into Natty with on-board GFX.
Same behaviour on 2.6.38 kernel (self built or from Kernel team) installed on top of 10.04. 2.6.37rcX runs OK.
Note: GFX is installed in 1x slot which may be a contributing factor.
WORKAROUND: Kernel boot option 'i915.blacklist
