Re: Intel integrated graphics are not working
did you installed the xserver-xorg-video-intel drivers? - don't know how, i have
just upgrade kernel!
what does your /etc/default/grub look like?
Code:
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
GRUB_DEFAULT=0
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text splash vga=791"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
# Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only)
#GRUB_TERMINAL=console
# The resolution used on graphical terminal
# note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE
# you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768
# Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
# Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY="true"
# Uncomment to get a beep at grub start
#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

Re: Intel integrated graphics are not working
alright, intel drivers are installed but they are very old.
follow these steps:
1) apt-get install python-software-properties
2) add-apt-repository ppa:glasen/intel-driver
3) apt-get update
4) apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel
5) change following to your /etc/default/grub line:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text splash vga=791 i915.modeset=1 i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 i915.semaphores=1 pcie_aspm=force"
6) when finished editing /etc/default/grub --> update-grub
7) reboot
after reboot check if you got the newer drivers from glasen installed via
Code:
apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-intel
version number should be higher and the repo should changed to glasen......whatever
that should do the trick.

There seems to be a bug in the BT5 r3 kernel, i915 module and Ivy Bridge Technology (Intel 3rd Gen). The fix is as stated by tr00ner: install the Kernel version: 3.2.15, not another one, it has to be that version. Then just set (enable framebuffer) module i915.modeset=1 or nomodset in case modeset=1 does not do the work..Once it works, make it permanent.
If you do not do that, Video driver will fallback to fb....
The rest is for power savings..You can omit them if you want.
By the way, the other fix is again as stated by Tr00ner: install Kali linux...As I stated in my post, it has a Kernel version 3.7 (very high) so it will load i915 without hassels..It should work out of the box.
Thanx Tr00ner for another UPDATE..
