[arch-general] linux 3.15.1-1 and blank screen on boot
After the last kernel update, when the mahine is booting, i see some info on scrren, but when the frame buffer starts it became blank. But the system finish to boot, the monitor is on, and i can blindly log in. After i downgraded the kernel package everything worked fine again. Anyone with something like this? It is a bug or something? best regeards, --- Eduardo M. Machado

Logs can be searched using "journalctl" and likely grep. What gfx driver do you have in place? I'd be interested in those messages too, they're likely in the logs. cheers! mar77i

I am not using intel card. i am using an onboard ATI card and the open-source driver. And to solve i had only to downgrade the linux package. As soon as i came to the machine again i will catch the logs.
Eduardo, h ave you installed this driver "xf86-video-ati" ? 2014-06-23 15:27 GMT+02:00 Eduardo Machado <eduardo.machado@gmail.com>:

@Carlo
have you installed this driver "xf86-video-ati"?
yes, i am using the open driver. @Anthony
This seems to be similar to a problem that occurred about 3 months ago and was fixed by a later upgrade of systemd.
