Bug#599927: Kernel crashes when I start X on my Dell Latitude D505

[Julien Cristau]
> Install the kernel and xserver-xorg-video-intel from sid.

Good idea.  Upgraded these packages from Sid:

http://ftp.skolelinux.org/debian/ sid/main linux-base all 2.6.32-24 [158 kB]
http://ftp.skolelinux.org/debian/ sid/main linux-image-2.6.32-5-686 i386 2.6.32-24 [26,9 MB]
http://ftp.skolelinux.org/debian/ sid/main libx11-xcb1 i386 2:1.3.3-3 [89,6 kB]
http://ftp.skolelinux.org/debian/ sid/main libxcb-dri2-0 i386 1.6-1 [9 726 B]
http://ftp.skolelinux.org/debian/ sid/main xserver-xorg-video-intel i386 2:2.12.0+shadow-2

After a quick reboot, the kernel no longer crashes, but X do not start
either.

Next I tried to modify /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf, changing
modeset=0 to modeset=1.  With that change in place, X starts, but the
screen is black.

When I now start kdm, the login screen show up as it should.  I guess
the default X screen was just black, and starting kdm changed the
colors to something more interesting. :)

I guess the conclusion is that the kernel and intel Xorg driver in Sid
work just fine.  I hope the new packages make it into Squeeze.

Happy hacking,
