Bug#420350: Same problem here with intel



Hi, 

I just want to add some observations I made when struggling with this bug for
two months or even longer. I did install everything from unstable today, including
the recent kernel but the bug remains.

So, using the intel driver does not work at all, I found the vesa driver to be a workaround though.
BUT: Even the vesa driver exhibits this bug when I switch from X11 to a console and back.
Then the screen is black as if I would have used the intel driver from the beginning. This would
lead me to the conclusion that the bug is not in the driver but somewhere deeper in the core!

Hope that helps,

Olaf
