There has been one tester of this patched kernel so far, Daniel G. Taylor, who writes:

"""
Above commands caused my display to not work and I had to reboot into an older kernel selected in grub to get things working again. It does NOT fix the issue for me. I'm on a ~2007 Macbook. The display was off and showed no graphics whatsoever. I can't tell if the boot process succeeded or failed and had to do a hard-reboot.

I installed 2.6.38-8-generic_2.6.38-8.42~lp686388 for i386 and the associated linux-image-generic, linux-generic, linux-libc-dev. That's the one that caused the issue.

I tried booting both with an external monitor attached and without an external monitor. Bug LP #749784 is apparently my dupe of this one so you can see my system information in that one. Let me know what else I can do to help.
