Linux 4.10.0-21-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 28 16:14:22 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Ubuntu 17.04 NVIDIA binary driver 375.66 from nvidia-375 Nvidia GTX 770 Using disk encryption
I cannot believe this is still an issue after a year! During this time I have had to manually fix and purge the Nvidia drivers multiple times (at various different installs onto my PC where I was hoping this issue had been resolved). There is no way any normal person would have been able to recover their device. It was difficult enough to even find this bug report. Someone reported "Also wanted to mention that the initial symptom of this problem in the presence of full-disk encryption is that the boot fails very early, before it even asks for your FDE passphrase.". However that is not the case for me, in this case I enter the passphrase but the next stage is a black screen with a single "_" character in the top-left corner, with nothing happening. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1638990 Title: nvidia-367 with kernel 4.4.0-45-generic won't boot Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-367 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After I upgraded the nvidia drivers, I could no longer boot via kernel 4.4.0-45-generic.
