Hello,
i am using a Thinkpad X301 with a DVI Monitor connected to the mini
displayport.
That worked perfectly for years, but with Kernel 3.6 (and 3.7rc) the DVI
Monitor stays black on boot and it is not visible in xrandr. As if it
wasn't connected at all.
Rebooting with 3.5 brings back the Display with full functionality.
All i found about this was a Fedora bugreport stating the issue, but is
unanswered for a month now.
Does someone got an idea here or faced the same issue and solved it?
Regards,
Norman

Can you give us a link to:
(1) the Fedora bug report
(2) your 3.5 kernel .config
(3) your 3.6 (and 3.7rc) kernel .config(s)

What does `xrandr --current` say? (from x11-apps/xrandr)

In what situation? 3.5 or 3.6 kernel?

In doubt, both. But I'm fairly sure he meant 3.6 since there are no
problem to solve in 3.5. :P

Yeah, i was kinda irritated by that question, as i allready said, that
xrandr does not show the display.
3.5 activates the display during kernel loading, on 3.6 it stays shut
off during the whole boot process.
3.6:
xrandr --current
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1440 x 900, maximum 32767 x 32767
LVDS1 connected 1440x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

---------------------------------------------
3.5 both screens mirrored:

I know this is not really what you want to hear about, but you should
wait for the fix to solve itself. The reason I'm saying this is that
Intel programmers are really working hard on their graphics drivers with
Steam comming to Linux and this is probably just a bug in their drivers
to which we have no power.
I could also be wrong though but I learned to just back off and wait
when a new kernel version breaks something.

Sorry, missed that part.
Can you try without KMS?

Setting nomodeset does not solve the problem.

Sorry I didn't have the time to reply ... RL is consuming me.
You can search on the Linux Kernel Mailing List https://lkml.org/ to see if
this bug is there, also. If it is a kernel bug, it will get fixed; and it
would be best for you to stay with whatever 3.5 series kernel works for now.
Or better yet, since 3.5 is EOL, use a 3.4 series such as 3.4.19.
