Description Leonard Khoo 2006-03-28 02:58:40 UTC 
Starting Xorg with i810 driver gives a blank screen. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace doesn't
work. I have to press the power button for the system to shutdown. It shuts down
cleanly.(not hard reset)

I am using in-kernel 2.6.16-archck1 agpgart and i915 drm drivers which was
working on xorg-6.8.2. What I have tried:

1) Disable dri in kernel and xorg.conf
2) reinstall the i810 driver
3) added Option "DisplayInfo" "FALSE" to Section "Device"

Non of the above works, except for using the vesa driver. What could be the problem?
