Title:
Keyboard does not respond/scrambled video
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Release: 14.04
Kernel 3.13.0-48-generic
I expected to be apple to boot to the password prompt for my encrypted root
(and beyond) with correct graphics.
Instead I found that my keyboard was not recognised after grub, so I am not
able to decrypt my root or login
More detailed explanation:
I have Ubuntu installed on my 17'' core-duo intel imac, with an encrypted
root partition.
Version 12.04 with kernel 3.5.0-17-generic worked ok, but I updated to the
LTS version 14.04.
The system now freezes before asking for my encryption password when booting
(I am using EFI with grub2)
with my old kernel (3.5.0-17-generic) and with no args on the kernel command
line. If I put nomodeset the boot
progresses to the encryption password and I can successfully login, however
the video is completely scrambled (I literally cannot
make out anything). Having tried many ways to fix the video, I tried the
latest kernel (3.13.0-48-generic). In this case
the boot gets to the password and the graphics appear to be ok, but the
keyboard/mouse do not respond. Again I tried many fixes, unsuccesfully. I
installed the extras so as to have usbhid, mac_hid etc, and found that the
behaviour now reverted precisely to that outlined above for 3.5.0-17-generic;
that is scrambled graphics but successful login (with nomodeset), and freezing
before
reaching the password prompt (without nomodeset).
I tried manually adding only the hid modules to my
initrd.img-3.13.0-48-generic built prior to install of extra, but found
graphics again ok but still no keyboard !
This report was made via a ssh session after booting with the
scrambled video.
