Starting X on an Acer Aspire 150Bk (graphics chip 8086:27ae, subsystem 1025:019c) just results in a black screen; tried xf86-video-intel 2.6.3, 2.7 and 2.7.99.1 all with the same effect. Kernel is 2.6.29, Xserver is 1.6.1. xrandr shows that it does see the right outputs, even if not displaying anything: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 600, maximum 2048 x 2048 VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) LVDS connected 1024x600+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 222mm x 125mm 1024x600 60.0*+ 640x480 59.9 Xorg -verbose 9 doesn't show anything unusual: X.Org X Server 1.6.1 Release Date: 2009-4-14 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: Ark Linux Ark Open Source Current Operating System: Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.29-1arksmp #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Mar 25 08:10:33 UTC 2009 i686 Build Date: 06 May 2009 01:46:21PM the Ark Linux team Before reporting problems, check http://www.arklinux.org/ to make sure that you have the latest version.

Please upload your xorg log file with modedebug option on as attachment. thanks Ma Ling
pls refer to http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html for how to file a bug... And, is this a regression, i.e. Has it ever worked before?
It actually works with 2.6.3 and KMS enabled. 2.6.3 with KMS disabled and versions >= 2.7 (both with KMS enabled and disabled) still produce black screens only, will attach more debug output for those. Unfortunately trying to boot 2.6.30-rc* on the machine causes an instant reboot (probably not related to the graphics chip), so I can't run intel_gpu_dump
2.7.0 with ModeDebug and without KMS causes a crash Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/X(xorg_backtrace+0x37) [0x812f2e7] 1: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so [0xb7c906c8] 2: /usr/bin/X(InitOutput+0x50a) [0x80a824a] Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting [Chances are it looked like a black screen before because of problems switching back from graphics mode to text mode]
2.7.0 with KMS crashes with a different (and seemingly totally useless) backtrace 0: /usr/bin/X(xorg_backtrace+0x37) [0x812f2e7]
2.7.99.1 behaves like 2.7.0
Created attachment 25588 [details] xorg.conf
I use latest driver, 2.7.99 and compiled with modedebug option succesfully. Could you please answer the Michael's question on comments #2, "Has it ever worked before?" If yes, would you please like doing git bisec on your machine to find which version introduced this regression? Thanks Ma Ling

If so, would you be able to help doing some bi-sect? it might provide us some hints..

Bernhard, I have a Acer Aspire One, could you pls point me a url to get the distribution you use for reproducing this bug?
no response from bug reporter for long time over one month, so close it now.
