just built a new kernel for ubuntu 10.10 (2.6.38-rc2) and, depressingly, this kernel once again boots to a black screen given the intel i915 onboard video. this is getting frustrating.
Then let the i915 developers know about this, they just fixed a number of issues relevant to this.
Complaining on a random mailing list will not get this resolved, no matter how much we wish it were so :)
point taken. that was just some residual frustration left over from weeks of tolerating that problem, to see it *finally* (or so i thought) go away, then to suddenly come back right when i'm trying to put together a LUG talk on building a new kernel. grrrrrr.
so the obvious question is, is anyone else seeing this problem back again? i note one person who claims that things still seem to work. anyone else? or could it really just be something weird i've done?
It worked on my Ubuntu-Desktop. Ubuntu version: 10.4. Please see the attached config file (I have not enabled/disabled any config parameter - it is a default one).

p.s. i posted to the dri-devel list, let's see what i hear back.
