Git Bisect log, & git visualise o/p

Without X running, linux consoles blank after a period adjustable by setterm.
Mine does not. It goes white. If I invert the screen colours, it goes whiter.
Backlight?
I cloned the Linus-stable git and tried it. 3.18.0-rc4 twists this slightly -
The FIRST time the screen blanks, it does so correctly; every other time, it
blanks to white. 
I'm a hardware guy, not a software expert. Git bisect gives the output below.
Details of the box also attached

The box is a HP 6715S, twin core Turion, 3G ram. It's running Slackware-current
as of Sept 30th, 2014. LSPCI output attached. Bios Version: ATI 02/13/08,1.
