Hi, I just compiled a new kernel version 4.4.5, replacing a previous 4.1.9 for my thinkpad x40, which replaced CONFIG_DRM_I915_FBDEV with CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION--now, when the i915 and fbcon modules get loaded during boot, the screen goes blank (with backlight still on), which didn't happen with the old kernel. The funny thing is that starting an X server makes text reappear on the console!? (And the X server also works just fine, as far as I can tell so far ...) i915 is loaded with modeset=1 (I remember I had some problem without it with some earlier kernels, I don't really remember the details anymore ...). Any hints what to try? Any further information that could be useful?
