dmesg in 3.7.3 debian kernel

I am using Debian sid with  Debian 3.7.3-1~experimental.1 kernel and since 3.7
kernel series my system boots into a black screen. I can however type commands
blindly using the ttys. nomodeset gets me to debian gnome fallback. I tried
other distros like Fedora 18 and Arch linux and had similar results with the
3.7 series kernels. I tried 3.8.rc4 mainline kernel in arch but had similar
results.

I am a physcian and I have no idea to bisect the kernel commits.

Here is a list of attachments which might be useful. I would certainly post
some log using the 3.8.rc4 kernel if you want.

My machine is a Lenovo Y580 with a ivybridge intel HD4000 graphics setup.
