The Intel KMS driver is lacking support for the NS-2501 LVDS chip in this laptop. Some support was attempted in the old userspace driver but never completed. Please follow up on the upstream bug report. |
Created attachment 564531 [details] /sbin/lspci output Description of problem: kernel modesetting doesn't work for i915 on the Fujitsu Stylistic ST-4110 When modesetting is enabled the display has white smudge lines on it which increase for about a minute until the screen is saturated. It is unuseable, and unreadable. The machine is operable and keyboard input is accepted. For example, one can type in the LUKS password to continue the boot process if one knows that it is being requested. I am attempting to boot to runlevel 3, text only; there should otherwise be no gpu activity involved.
