#16355: [intel_extreme] Switching between workspaces may result in a black
screen
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: accessays | Owner: nobody
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
| Unscheduled
Component: Drivers | Version:
Keywords: display,framebuffer,workspace,black | R1/Development
screen | Blocked By:
Blocking: | Platform: x86-64
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
Steps to reproduce:
1. CTRL + ALT + arrow keys
2. Repeat 1. randomly until it hits
Usually happens when I reach workspace 4 (rightmost bottommost).
Driver: intel_extreme\\
HRev: hrev54384\\
CPU: Intel Core i7-3635QM\\
Laptop: Samsung Series 7 Chronos\\
The driver seems to support my display quite nicely, with backlight
control being available. Workspace switching is a hit or miss though.
Looking at the syslog, this might just be the problem:\\
`KERN: intel_extreme: intel_set_display_mode: Failed to allocate
framebuffer !`
