Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Ubuntu 10.04 w/integrated intel gfx and Sony Bravia 32' Flatscreen TV connected via VGA cable.

TV goes out of sync after loading grub.

I Have followed directions from here with no luck:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/KernelModeSetting

I have tried disabling kms with grub by adding i915.modeset=0 with no luck.
Also tried suggestions and with "sudo -i" echo options i915 modeset=0 > /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf[/CODE] with no luck .

[ 15.576747] [drm:drm_fill_in_dev] *ERROR* Cannot initialize the agpgart module.

It looks like the Intel graphics driver is failing to load properly due to an AGP issue, which would be why adding i915.modeset=0 has no effect. This is bug #542251.

I suspect that vga16fb might be messing the mode up. Does booting with “blacklist=vga16fb” work any better?

Well, without further comment from the reporter, we'll assume this to be a dupe of #542251 for now
