Blank screen after GRUB and before login page is displayed on T60 Thinkpad with Radeon graphics
When booting my Lenovo Thinkpad T60, the screen goes blank after the GRUB boot menu. The screen stays blank until the login page is displayed. After that, everything seems to work right.
The problem appeared with one of the last Ubuntu releases. The issue was mentioned in the release notes back then. I'm not completely sure, but I think that it was in 14.10. It hasn't worked correctly since then.
What can I do to solve this problem?
