HW: Motheboard asus f1a75-v pro, cpu a3870k.

Kernel 3.8.5, direct boot from BIOS.

EFI framebuffer OK.

Are you booting with grub?  Does removing GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep from your grub config help?

This should be fixed in 3.10 and the patches will show up in the 3.9 stable series shortly thereafter.
Comment 9 David Heidelberg (okias) 2013-08-27 08:47:52 UTC 
it work well with 3.10, so it's fixed for me. Thank you. Closing bug.
