Comment 26 for bug 49521

I have a Dell XPS M1210, and This has affected me ever since a few months after Kubuntu 9.10 was released. My laptop is in great working condition so I do not believe it is the laptops fault.

When I close the lid and try to open it the screen does not turn on. Not even the backlight in most cases. Switching to a VTE doesn't work either. I'm not sure why its doing this but I've also just reformatted my computer a few days ago and this issue is persisting. (Running current patches from Kubuntu 9.10, and latest Kernel).

I hope this gets fixed soon because this is becoming a real problem for me since I use this laptop a lot for my personal use and personal-business use.

If you need any information contact me.
