Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.15

If I turn off the monitor, linux doesn't boot until I turn it on again.
The machine is very hot, with the fan at top speed, so it should be in a
busy wait. I've waited up to 5 minutes without any result.

The kernel boots adding this option to the boot line:
video=radeonfb:ignore_edid

But then, when I turn on the monitor it can work only at 640x480. I've
to reboot the machine to get it working at higher resolutions.

The solution is for radeon chips but I have a Intel 950 GMA chip which
will have some other setting or might not support this option. Have
someone solved this problem?
