No luck with 4.19.2 either -- kernel panic (recovery mode or normal boot). ** Attachment added: "2018-11-20_100455.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1802573/+attachment/5214529/+files/2018-11-20_100455.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1802573 Title: Thinkpad x220 - Unable to use 2560x1440 external display connected via DisplayPort due flashing black screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1802573/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I suggest trying a more stable newer version in that case, like: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.19.2/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1802573 Title: Thinkpad x220 - Unable to use 2560x1440 external display connected via DisplayPort due flashing black screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1802573/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I installed vmlinuz-4.20.0-042000rc3-generic per your request. The machine won't boot, and just loops infinitely with the error message: request_module: kmod_concurrent_max (0) close to 0 (max_modprobes: 50), for module binfmt-646c, throttling... request_module: modprobe binfmt-646c cannot be processed, kmod busy with 50 threads for more than 5 seconds now I've done some googling and don't see an obvious fix.

This machine is a fresh install so there have been no updates/upgrades. The initial install was 18.10 and whatever kernel came by default with that. I will test with the latest upstream kernel and report back. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1802573 Title: Thinkpad x220 - Unable to use 2560x1440 external display connected via DisplayPort due flashing black screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1802573/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade? Was there a prior kernel version where you were not having this particular problem? Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.20 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed". Thanks in advance.

If you get the same behaviour in Wayland sessions then it's probably not a Xorg bug.
