Hi all,
After upgrading to the latest stable kernel I found my x230 (with the latest, v2.52 BIOS) no longer boots.
Using an EFI only boot scheme with gummiboot v29, I get a blank backlit screen when attempting to boot up my distro. There isn't any indication from the hard drive it has attempted any work and no response from a netconsole so I'm at a loss for figuring out what information I can provide.
I did take the time to bisect the commit causing my problem but it seems to come from an unlikely looking place:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=16fad69cfe4adbbfa813de516757b87bcae36d93
but after reverting that I am able to boot into my system normally.
Any suggestions on what I can do to get more information would be appreciated!
