[Bug 431812] Re: i915: black screen on boot---fbcon loading (screen powers off); breaks (recovery mode), fsck, usplash, crypt password

[Igor Gomes]

Got new results: Workaround.

1) Add nomodeset to the grub options in /etc/default/grub
2) Run update-grub
3) Restart
4) Somehow, it will be fallback to the console. But just hitting CTRL+ALT+F7 the normal Ubuntu initialization starts (with that white line in the middle)

Best,

Igor Gomes
