[Bug 566379] Re: [i855] X doesn't start with kernel 2.6.32-21 unless passing i915.modeset=1

[Damon Smyth]

Another with problems getting 10.04 RC to boot properly.

damon at damon-laptop:~$ lspci | grep -i vga
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)

In order to get 10.04 RC to boot and start X I have been manually
selecting the previous kernel (2.6.31-20) at boot.

However if I use the following kernel option (posted above - thanks!) I
can get 2.6.32-21 (default kernel) to boot :

i915.modeset=1

Hope this gets resolved before 10.04 Final is released.
