Bug Description
I am running Ubuntu Linux 10.04 64 bits on a DELL 6510 notebook with integrated Intel graphics card. The machine only boots in a low-graphics mode. I detected the following error message in the logs:
(EE) intel(0): No kernel modesetting driver detected
I used i915,modeset=0 as a kernel option but I am no longer using. The xorg.config file I am using is

I can confirm the bug on a Dell Latitude E6510 with intel integrated graphics and the FullHD display (1920x1080).
With the intel driver the screen stays black instead of showing the plymouth screen with the current 2.6.32 kernel in Lucid
and equally on the kernel images 2.6.35-14 up to 2.6.35-16 from the kernel-ppa.
On the other hand I got the intel driver working with the 2.6.35-12 kernel package from the kernel-ppa ( 2.6.35-

But it seems it was removed from the ppa later.
I think it is really based on 2.6.35rc6, so it matches the experience of comment 12 as 2.6.35-14 from that ppa came out just after the final 2.6.35-release.

Francisco, I think you should change the bug title to something along the lines of "E6510: blank screen on boot" because that's what the problem really is about - the low graphics mode is just a workaround. Maybe you could also change the description to be a bit more specific (e.g. the kernel versions that have this bug).

@Corona: I'm running a drm-intel kernel (2.6.36-rc2) with the patch you mention reverted. Works fine, including external monitors (in a somewhat brittle way, I would say). Card readers are not a high priority for me now - I go around with a small USB card reader. Suspend works with the acpi_sleep kernel option. My current biggest problem is that I cannot make VirtualBox run reliably.
I did not know 2.6.35 supported external monitors. Which release are you using? I may give it a try.

Are you sure this is for intel gpu's, and not nvidia? Nouveau sounds a lot like nvidia to me, this bug is specific to intel integrated graphics. Nvidia chipsets have other issues I believe.

This issue is specific to E6150 machines with the Intel GPU. E6150 machines with nVidia GPUs may well have different issues.
We're past the final kernel freeze. While there's a slim possibility that it will get into the kernel on the release CDs, more likely is that it'll be fixed in an update.

From what I can tell, the patches I specifically named above have not made it into any of the 2.6.36 rcs yet; as such, it would be useful to test the drm-intel-next kernel.
John Lenton (chipaca) wrote : | #40 |
I tested the drm-intel-next kernel and got no X at all; had to add nomodeset at boot and use the vesa driver to get X.
With 2.6.36-020636rc3 I get X after switching to console and back, but no console and the colours on X were "wrong" (32 bits, but 4/4/4 apparently).
Downloading 2.6.36-020636rc5 to try my luck with that :)

Not as far as I know. I have produced .deb but they are 32 bit.
However, except for the need to switch to console (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and back
to graphical display (Ctrl+Alt+F7), the Maverick rc4 and rc5 seem to
work nicely. You can get 32 and 64 bit variants from

I tested henk's patch mentioned in this thread (comment 63) https:/
It only works for me if I increase the delays to 900ms (500 and 300 don't work, I haven't tried any values between 900 and 500), but it really seems to fix the black screen. I can see the bootloader and the login screen now, and I can resume from suspend. The cardreader is supported by default. I haven't tested VGA output yet but I guess that works, too.
I tried to upload my deb packages to a PPA but I couldn't figure out how to do it, so I'm going to try to add them as an attachment.

I know uploading the kernel debs is not the proper way to do this, if anyone could upload the packages to their PPA that would be much better, but I don't know how to do it.
Corona (stefaniefauconnier) wrote : | #54 |
Sorry for the multiple comments, but I forgot to mention that the .deb packages I uploaded do not install an initrd by default. You should run sudo update-initramfs -c -k 2.6.36-rc5 after installing them, and then edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg accordingly (look for the menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.36-rc5' and add the line initrd /boot/initrd.

That's great! Have you contacted Henk about the need to increase the delays to 900ms? What did he have to say about that?
henk (henk1234) wrote : | #56 |
900ms is a long time, so I doubt if the kernel developers will accept such a delay. On my system, a 300ms delay is enough. Are there other systems which need the 900ms delay?
I've submitted the patch with the 300ms delay upstream. But if we really need the 900ms delay, we could ask the developers nicely to increase the delay :-)
Corona (stefaniefauconnier) wrote : | #57 |
For me, 300 ms and 500 ms didn't work, so I increased the delays to a very long time like 900 ms to see if it would help at all. It works now and I'm happy with it, but maybe 600ms would have been enough.
I'm also interested in finding out if other people have the same results with this patch.

After upgrading from kernel 2.6.34-12.3 (that comes on the installation disk) to a newer kernel (2.6.34.7-0.3.1) via online update I only get a blank screen after booting (system boots "normally" though).

I have been successfully running drm-intel-next with Henk's patch and Henk's delay. It's been rock solid for the last few days. I suppose that the timing differences come from different hardware and the speed of the components, but I do not know which pieces would affect that. Henk (and others), which information do you think could be interesting to determine which delay to apply for each configuration? Would the output of lshw / lspci help?

2) Will Henk's patch be in kernel 2.6.36?
3) Is there a drm-intel-next compiled kernel that includes Henk's patch?

drm-intel-next head already includes something similar to that
patch. Alas it does not work for me, so something else broke it
(2.6.36-rc5 with that patch works for me, drm-intel-next head does
not).

Corona (stefaniefauconnier) wrote : | #75 |
Francisco, I don't think anything will happen until significant progress is made upstream. Henk's patch works very well for me, but it is not considered as a proper solution so I don't think we will see it in Maverick. You can follow the upstream bug report here: https:/
The most recent working kernel is this one I think: http://
Still, I think it's a shame that there is so little attention for this bug, especially when compared with the e6410. What puzzles me most of all is that the E6510 is apparently Ubuntu certified: http://
Corona (stefaniefauconnier) wrote : | #76 |
I just saw that this bug was not even nominated for Maverick, this should have happened a long time ago. I just nominated it, but the feature freeze was a while ago so I don't think this will make any difference anymore. So Francisco, remember to nominate your bugs for upcoming releases.
Francisco Cribari (cribari) wrote : | #77 |
@Corona
Thanks. This was the first and only bug I ever reported. I am not an advanced user. I knew nothing about nominating a bug (I still don't know what that means, to be quite honest), that's why I did not do it. Thanks for nominating this bug. If you find out more about this bug and possible fixes and patches, please share the information with us.

Ubuntu Linux 10.10 boots into blank screen on Dell Latitude E4310 as well (for 2.6.35 kernel). The problem exists in the latest version of 2.6.33 as well. Downgrading to 2.6.32 fixes the problem partly. I can however not connect external VGA displays (both internal and external screen goes black).

I'm currently using the machine with an external monitor (VGA). I tried running Ubuntu 10.04, and that worked, but when I install the updates for that, the laptop screen went dead again. I'm back on 10.10 now with the external monitor.

My DELL Latitude E6510 was working fine with Ubuntu 10.04, until there was a minor kernel upgrade from which the display went black at boot.
I can't find precisely the exact kernel package version which introduced the bug but I can remember there was a change in kernel mode setting for intel chipset.
Currently my laptop is working with kernel : 2.6.32-23, and is not working anymore (black screen on boot) with later kernel packages (including Ubuntu 10.10).
Dries Van Dyck (vandyck-dries) wrote : | #95 |
I had the same experience as Christian with my E6510 with integrated intel gpu: I first installed Ubuntu 10.04 which worked fine, applied the updates and rebooted to a blank screen (with backlight if I remember correctly). Strangely enough, booting with the original kernel which worked fine before yielded also a blank screen.
I tried ubuntu 10.10 afterwards: the install CD gave a blank screen but using the nomodeset boot option I could install graphically but first boot resulted again in a blank screen. I tried several boot options (including nomodeset) without success.
I do not understand why the working graphics configuration *during* install is not used and can not be replicated *after* install.

Hi All,
I think getting picture on the laptop's display is fundamental. If I need to do a presentation, which is done with laptops, I would need the possibility to use external display or projector.
With Maverick and laptops with Intel graphic card this is almost impossible to do.
1. Start laptop where laptop will display anything (except backlight), is in every 4-5 boot ups
2. If I get display in the end, if I switch it off, I will not get it back (except back light).
3. Using Fn-F4 (switch display keys), is working in one way. Buy switching off laptops display ;-)
4. Connecting external display, sometimes doesn't work, because it will not switch it on, or it will switch laptops display off.
What is possibly wrong is that internal display is DP1 and not VGA1, meaning that external display is VGA1.
This should be first priority bug. Or please tell us if there is some workaround.
Thanks
Dejan

Reviewing the upstream bug there seem to be a number of patches floating around that are needed in combination to make this work. I believe that all of the ones mentioned were in v2.6.37-rc2 which would mean that they are in the latest Natty kernel. If those of you who are affected could test that kernel. Probabally the easiest way would be to boot the current LIVE CD images which can be found at the URL below:

@Corona I've been testing most mainline kernels. None works on my machine (DELL 6510, core i7, Intel GPU, full HD display, SDD). With 2.6.36 kernels I can at least get to X by switching to a VT and back, but that does not seem work on 2.6.37 kernels. Unfortunately, I am not able to compile kernels + patches. My knowledge of Linux does not go that far. I am really hoping for a compiled kernel (64 bits) that works on my machine.

I have compiled them for i386, but I should be able to compile 64 bit versions as well. I would like to make them available widely. I was thinking of a ppa in launchpad, but I do not know what is the procedure to get and account there, or if this is really the best place to leave them. Any hints / recommendations?

Hi
I tested with Kubuntu 10.10 and different kernel out of mainline and inter-drm-next on Dell Latitude E6510 Core I5 intel gpu. I even had to use an external Monitor in order to bring the installer up and running.
After unsuccesfully testing arround in 10.10 i installed 11.04 today with better results.
Installer (still 10.10 installer) worked only with external monitor.
After Installation I changed /etc/defaults/grub to xforcevesa nomodeset noagp and after update-grub it worked for me.

does this mean that xforcevesa, nomodeset, noagp are setting X.org to use vesa? Does compiz works?
Does Ubuntu recognize when you connect external monitor or projector? In 10.10, when I connected external monitor, I had to run xrandr and then I would get display on external monitor, but no display on my internal LCD (blank screen).

Hi,
Just a tip.
To enable VGA1 on boot (which is a problem for projectors that are not detected) you can put:
"video=VGA1:e" in /etc/default/grub
or video=VGA1:
for example:
GRUB_CMDLINE_
After you safe this file you need to run "sudo update-grub"
Info from here: https:/
display=VGA1:d - disables VGA1 on boot

2.6.37-9.22~lucid1 is the latest maverick kernel, in lucid backports. The patches that Chris mentions in comment #27 have been applied to that kernel, and the problem persists. It doesn't make much sense to worry about backporting patches to Lucid and Maverick until we find something that works on Natty, so we're still in need of a fix.
There could also be more than one issue at play here, making it more difficult to find a fix.

Yup, all the testers have reported that the issue is fixed in edp-fixes-2. Fixes will land in 2.6.37.x so stay tuned.
Apparently the black screen on boot and the suspend issues are totally fixed. External monitors also work, but with a couple of glitches, but new bugs have to be opened for those.

The basic problem reported here has indeed been fixed, drm-intel-next now succesfully boots to X. Resuming from suspend is broken for me, too, I haven't tried the shutdown menu options yet though.
I filed these bug reports, reporting the resuming from suspend problems and the flicker I experience during boot.

The flicker seems to be mostly solved by 2 patches which (accidentally) did not find their way to drm-intel-next. Resuming from suspend seems to be a different issue which is not solved yet.

It's working fantastic for me. However, as a note of caution, v2.6.38-rc3
delivered some breaking for me. Seems to be just a little regression that will
probably be resolved in -rc4.
I still have issues with backlight control, which is of course irrelevant to
this bug; just mentioning it.

Same here. RC3 and RC4 don't work for me but RC2 works great.
I'm getting to the point of 'grr' with this issue. I'm guessing they've been
making a lot of changes around this area of the kernel but I haven't looked
into it much yet.

I get a blank screen with that also; so far of the ones I've tried the
only one that has worked is 2.6.36-rc5 with the 900ms delay patch.

This is still broken with E6510 with both mainline and Ubuntu kernels. I got the information from Intel developer that they got some regression report about the eDP patches, so they didn't send the patches to Linus yet. Therefore the fix will be in only in 2.6.39 kernel (or http://

I can confirm that the image I downloaded yesterday from

also.

Nischal,
$ git revert <commit-identifier>
inside the drm-intel sources (after switching to the drm-intel-next branch) does the trick. After that you can compile and install the kernel.
I do not know whether / when this precise patch will make it into drm-intel (and eventually into mainline). I suppose that some time to let other people try it is necessary.

I installed the x86_64 deb packages from #185, and I can confirm that it works... with some issues with VirtualBox.
I had VirtualBox installed, so it actually gave me errors. I went to the VirtualBox site and noticed that there was a 4.0.4 (I had 4.0.2) update that was updated today, so I updated the 4.0.4 package (sudo apt-get upgrade virtualbox-4.0). But by doing so, it wanted me to install an updated 2.6.38-4 kernel, which I accepted. After it was done upgrading, it rebooted to a blank screen (because it wasn't the 2.6.38-

External Monitors are working too as they did with former versions of

My system is connected to a DELL docking station.
Internal LCD is @ eDP1 ->
external Monitor via DVI is @HDMI3
No problems during Kernel installation.
Desktop Effects also working -> but at poor performance.

After testing now for a second day, no stability issues (X crashes) to report (which is a great relief!).
One issue found: I suspended at work with a second monitor attached, then unplugged the second monitor, went home, tried to resume without a second monitor, got a black screen with backlight. Switching to other consoles worked, but switching back to X just restored the black screen. So I could kill and restart my X from another console, so rebooting wasn't necessary, but of course the session was lost.
I can prevent running into this problem by either unplugging the second monitor (and quickly reconfiguring the X for single-display) before suspending or maybe (didn't test this) by attaching another second monitor before resuming, so there is a workaround.
Cheers, Alfe

did you try hitting the 'change monitor' button (or whatever it's
called; Fn+F8 on my e6510) in X?
Manuel Carro (manuelcarro) wrote : | #196 |
Alfe,
besides Fn+F8, as suggested, changing the brightness may also do the trick (it worked for me in other kernels). In my e6510 it is Fn+arrow up to change brightness. Fn+arrow left (to activate / deactivate automatic brightness adjustment) may also work.
Alfe (alfeberlin) wrote : | #197 |
John, I am not sure whether I also tried Fn-F8 (which has a laptop/screen icon on it) (p=70%). I'm also not sure whether I tried it more than once (p=10%). Sorry for being so vague; I just tried everything which came to mind. Also closing and opening the lid didn't help.
Manuel, I did not try brightness changes; nice idea :-)
I also found out that Windows-P in my configuration does something with my displays (turning them or something like that), maybe that can help as well.
I just tried to reproduce the problem reported in #194 but couldn't (tried it twice just now). The laptop screen always refreshed properly after resuming from suspend without the second monitor. I will try to reproduce the problem again in the next time and if I manage, I will try your suggestions and report back here. But maybe the problem was due to something else.
Cheers, Alfe

I've noticed something interesting with the brightness. I pushed Fn+Left arrow (disable/enable auto brightness) by accident and now I noticed that I don't see the weird brightness. Maybe this is causing the issue?

Hello, I've been tracking this bug for a while but haven't tried testing anything until now. I've installed the x64 kernel from #185 on my E6510 (Full HD & intel graphics) over Maverick and it does not appear to work for me unless I add the option i915.modeset=0 to the kernel options at boot as before. If I do not do this and leave the default kernel options, it boots to a text login and shows the message:
[ 13.039854] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: failed to get i915 symbols, graphics turbo disabled
Now, I'm not terribly experienced with this sort of thing, so I may have done something wrong.

Same as comment #203 here on a DELL Latitude E6510 with resolution 1600x900 x64 kernel.
I rolled back to the standard kernel, which BTW, functions "correctly" despite the "failed to get i915 symbols, graphics turbo disabled" message: Wakeup after suspend always results in black screen, most of the times when I close the lid without locking the screen is does the same, even if I specified that closing lid should just black screen, not suspend.
Sometimes when plugging out/in on a docking station with an external monitor, it all goes black too.
No other options than hard reboot 4secs on Power button

As an update to #203, I've installed 11.04 alpha 3 (2.6.38-5-generic) a few hours ago and so far things seem to be working great. Boot is good, suspend/resume works. I haven't tried the external monitor yet.
Seth Forshee (sforshee) wrote : | #206 |
I backported the fix from natty to maverick (along with several other things required by the fix). I've posted kernel builds at
http://
The backport was a little tricky, so I'm not really sure whether it is completely correct or if there's any chance of getting this into a maverick SRU due to the amount of changes required. Testing is appreciated. Please report results back here.

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.

@Alfe, thanks for testing. You can check whether or not you're using the test kernel kernel by running 'cat /proc/version_
Alfe (alfeberlin) wrote : | #209 |
Seth, I checked using your instruction. I was testing the kernel you provided; so this is bad news :-/
Seth Forshee (sforshee) wrote : | #210 |
@Alfe, thanks for checking. I'll double-check my backport for mistakes, but there may be other changes that are also needed to fix this problem for maverick.
Mark Russell (marrusl) wrote : | #211 |
@Seth, do you expect this would be the same with the E6410? You also posted the same kernel to Bug #561802 so I'm guessing we would expect the same results. But if it would help to get confirmation I can ask a customer to give it a go. Otherwise, I'll just wait for the next proposed fix. Thanks!
In general I have my doubts about backporting/SRUing this... I'm worried that part of the resolution is in the natty kernel and part is in the natty X stack.
Seth Forshee (sforshee) wrote : | #212 |
@Mark:
I posted to all three bugs that the changelog indicates are fixed by the backported patch. I wouldn't be surprised at all if other changes were part of the resolution, even if the X stack isn't involved, as related parts of the kernel driver have seen very significant change between maverick and natty. Note though that comments #200 and #201 on bug #561802 indicate that using a natty kernel with maverick fixes the problem on the E6410, which would contradict the idea that a fix to the X stack is needed.
It would be helpful to have testing on an E6410 if possible, but I'm not very hopeful of it working since it didn't help with the E6510.

Hello,
The same problem for:
eMachines e525.
On splashscreen everything seems to load OK, but screen is very dark and I cannot see anything - but system is loaded OK. When I clcik "CTRL+ALT+DEL" i see windows with menu to Shutdown/Reboot - but it's very dark, almost invisible. After 30 seconds system shutdown perfectly. With nomodeset everything seems to be OK, but with KWIN 3D efects KDE hangs randomly. I can provide lspci, hwinfo etc.
Greetings

Sorry I forgot to write that for me problem exists after kernel update on 11.3 and even on Live CD in 11.4 and 11.2 Mileston 5.
I don't know if this issue is relative, or I should create a new one.
greetings

Having the Same Issue (E6510) with 3.0.15, Display does not turn on if booted in Docking Station with Lid closed.
If the lid is open at boot time and closed at display manager login screen it works.

manuel, that sounds very much like bug 902657.

Hi. Ubuntu kernel 3.0.0-14 works for me whild 3.0.0-15 already fails to start the graphic system. Is there a public git / svn / whatever with the Ubuntu kernel (and instructions to compile) so that I can try to bissect the problem?
Thanks everyone.

With the coming release of openSUSE 12.2, openSUSE kernel developers are focusing their efforts there. Reports against openSUSE 11.4 and prior will not get the attention needed to resolve them before openSUSE 12.2 is release and openSUSE 11.4 becomes unmaintained.
Please re-test with openSUSE 12.1 or openSUSE RC2+ and re-open with an updated Product if you still encounter your issue.
We apologize for this issue not getting the attention it deserves but we are focusing our resources in the area where they will have the most impact for our users. We're working hard to make openSUSE 12.2 the best openSUSE release yet!

The problem apparently is in the Intel graphics driver.
Meanwhile I'm using the vesa driver, I had to edit the /etc/default/grub file:
## Original: LINUX_DEFAULT= "quiet splash" LINUX_DEFAULT= "quiet nomodeset xforcevesa acpi_osi=Linux"
## GRUB_CMDLINE_
## Now:
GRUB_CMDLINE_
I'm not sure of the effect of
acpi_osi=Linux
but I couldn't even boot without nomodeset and xforcevesa options.
