We apologize for the inconvenience.  There is a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale.  Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 19 kernel bugs.

I just figured out that the blank screen comes from gnome 3 settings during gdm login screen. External monitor works but the login window is on the blank screen. During successful blind login entering gnome 3 session screen becomes correct.

In gnome 3 I switched off ultrabook screen and just using external monitor.

I really believe that gnome 3 session settings apply to gdm 3 login screen, even after reboot.


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. during installation main screen is the ultrabook internal monitor - don't touch anything even screen is allocated wrong. left-right side is wrong.
2. switch off internal monitor of ultrabook within gnome 3
3. reboot 3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64

--> causes background on external monitor and invisible login window on internal display. Brightness doesn't matter.

I just figured out that the screen toggle key works, now. So it won't hurt anymore. Now it's possible with the toggle to turn the screen on again.
