Until now Maverick worked fine on my desktop without having to alter the boot options.
From comment #223 I understand that something has been altered with the coming of the 2.6.35-20 kernel now resulting in a black screen at startup.
Using the i915.modeset=1 indeed solved the issue for me now and gave me a problemless start up. So will add this to the default boot options until .... ??

Do I understand correctly that a separate bug is to be filed for the fact that with the 2.6.35-20 kernel the system does not start up properly?
