Bug#567747: /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf: startx results in a black screen permanently turned off until reboot
As a temporary workaround, or in case this is of any value: Logging in
from a second computer to the affected one allows you to:
- /etc/init.d/gdm stop
- Launch X and kill it (Ctrl-C)
- /etc/init.d/gdm start
And this time it works properly.
