Description :

After upgrading to the Intel 2.8 drivers on Ubuntu 9.04 my laptop would boot until I would see the cursor, the rest for the screen would stay black (on both screens). 

I tried deleting the /ect/X11/Xorg.conf file and rebooting with 1 monitor. This worked fine, after enabling the second monitor I got the same result as above (only mouse cursor nothing else).

Please do tell if you need any more information, I would be more than happy to provide it.

I have not found any other people with this problem but this might be because of the new nature of this driver.

Thanks in advance for looking into this issue.
