Package: plymouth Version: 0.9.4-1.1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
On 04/17/2019, package desktop-base was to be upgraded from 10.0.0 to 10.0.2, also requiring the installation of package plymouth 0.9.4-1.1. Upon rebooting my computer, I got a few ACPI errors, which I always get, and then just a black screen. I attempted to view syslog covering the time of reboot, but couldn't locate anything that looked suspect. Eventually, I was able to get to a login screen (lightdm) by using kernel 4.19.0-3. This evening I downgraded desktop-base from 10.0.2 to 10.0.0 and rebooted my computer using kernel 4.19.0-4 and again got no login screen. I then removed the following plymouth packages, rebooted my computer, and I got a login screen under kernel 4.19.0-4: libplymouth4 0.9.4-1.1 plymouth 0.9.4-1.1 plymouth-label 0.9.4-1.1 -- inxi output for my system: Machine: Type: Laptop System: ASUSTeK product: ET2321I v: 0801 serial: <root required> Mobo: ASUSTeK model: ET2321I v: Rev 1.xx serial: <root required> BIOS: American Megatrends v: 0801 date: 11/18/2014 CPU: Topology: Dual Core model: Intel Core i7-4500U bits: 64 type: MT MCP L2 cache: 4096 KiB Speed: 822 MHz min/max: 800/3000 MHz Core speeds (MHz): 1: 798 2: 798 3: 798 4: 798 Graphics: Device-1: Intel Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics driver: i915 v: kernel Device-2: NVIDIA GK208M [GeForce GT 740M] driver: nouveau v: kernel Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.4 driver: modesetting unloaded: fbdev,vesa resolution: 1920x1080~60Hz OpenGL: renderer: Mesa DRI Intel Haswell Mobile v: 4.5 Mesa 18.3.6 Audio: Device-1: Intel Haswell-ULT HD Audio driver: snd_hda_intel Device-2: Intel 8 Series HD Audio driver: snd_hda_intel Sound Server: ALSA v: k4.19.0-4-amd64 Network: Device-1: Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet driver: r8169 IF: enp2s0 state: down Device-2: Broadcom and subsidiaries BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter driver: wl IF: wlp3s0 state: up -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages plymouth depends on: ii init-system-helpers 1.56+nmu1 ii initramfs-tools 0.133 ii libc6 2.28-8 ii libdrm2 2.4.97-1 pn libplymouth4 <none> ii lsb-base 10.2019031300 ii systemd 241-3 ii udev 241-3 plymouth recommends no packages.
