Hi Jonathan,my wording was a bit imprecise. My problem is already known upstream. So sooner or later the fix will make it into debian. I just wanted to let you know, that the patch and instructions you proposed are working for me. Thank you for that!
First i booted into my system by using the "i915.modeset=0" workaround. Then i patched my kernel as proposed at [1], rebooted and voilà the black/blank screen is gone.
Kind regards [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=660394#10 Am 07.04.2012 15:52, schrieb Jonathan Nieder:

The fix posted above (http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2012-January/014332.html) fixes this bug for me.Please file a separate bug. Thanks, Jonathan
