Title:
ASPEED server console output extremely slow after upgrade to 18.04
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
After the upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 my server console is extremely slow.
It looks similar to the youtube clips mentioned in the problem described
here: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2399941
My server is attached to a KVM switch with VGA cable to a 1920x1080 LCD.
It runs on an ASUS P9D-X board.
Before the upgrade everything was fine.
Now it is so slow that it sometimes even hangs during boot and goes into an
emergency console where I just can do a ctrl-alt-delete as described in bug
