Seth, I installed your kernel on Ubuntu 10.10, Dell Latitude E6510 with Intel graphics 1920x1080.

Unfortunately, neither standalone nor with a second monitor attached did the main screen light up after mode switch during booting. The second monitor worked fine. It's attached via a docking station and a display port cable.

There is a slight chance that I failed in choosing your kernel when booting; installation of the debs provided by you told me that this would mean upgrading an installed package, so I figured that now my installed 2.6.35-28 was going to be upgraded. This kernel (35-28) then I chose on boot-time, though the grub menu did not display any of your complicated version number suffixes, resulting from the detailed patch level stuff.

I' love to run further tests because I'd like to step down from the upstream 2.6.38 patch I'm using currently as this prevents me from using a VMware installation (some different trouble) and doesn't seem too stable as a whole.
