I'm testing pure EFI boot capability on my iMac 7.1 (graphic card ATI radeon HD2600 pro). So far, with Ubuntu 14.10, i've been able to boot directly into a perfectly working system using the EFI kernel stub. No GRUB, no ELILO, no rEFIND, no boot manager whatsoever! And the result was amazing! Boot up time reduced to a fraction of the time needed by GRUB, for example, Compiz compositing much more quick, smooth and and efficient. I could notice even some graphical detail (e.g. Text shadows in the GDM log-in screen) that were not present if booting via GRUB. The way to accomplished this is simple: 1) Create a small (40MB or less) HFS+ partition. E.g. # sudo mkfs.hfsplus /dev/sdaX -v Ubuntu (EFI-Stub) 2) Copy to the new partition the files vmlinuz-3.XX.YY-ZZ-generic.efi.signed and initrd.img-3.XX.YY-ZZ-generig. Also rename them to vmlinuz.efi and initrd.img for sake of simplicity in further command line work. Furthermore, Apple's EFI won't boot anything that doesn't end with the .efi extension. 3) Create a boot entry in the NVRAM using efibootmgr like this: # sudo efibootmgr -d /dev/sdX -p Y -c -L Ubuntu 14.04 LTS -l /vmlinuz.efi -u root=UUID=b0c4efb9-95b0-4e5d-98e1-8beb43f413c2 ro rootflags=subvol=@ quiet splash initrd=\initrd.img 4) reboot (and enjoy!)

I'm not shure if it is a X problem or a kernel KMS bug, but i'm more inclined to think of a problem with X because i've tried to boot Ubuntu 15.0 with the old kernel (3.13/16) and the problem is still there. I've also tried to add vt.handoff=7 to the command line args for the kernel, like grub does, but the result is even worse. The system freezes completely at the moment of starting X. Please note also that booting via grub is working. X starts, much more slowly but starts. (Actually i'm reporting this bug from the very same system booted using GRUB. I have a second HFS+ partition where i installed grub and i can access it by holding down the ALT key at power-up) Thanks for your work.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1453052] Re: X fails to automatically detect ATI radeon RV600 card
Hi, Christopher. What do you really mean by testing with the latest kernel? I try to guess, so please correct me if I'm wrong. When the 3.19.0-16 kernel was installed, the process ended up with two vmlinuz files: vmlinuz-3-19.0-16-generic and vmlinuz-3-19.0-16-generic.efi.signed. Now, after the latest update I can find in the /boot folder only the vmlinuz-3-19.0-18-generic file. This can mean only two things: first) efi stub support has been temporarily suspended in this kernel's version (but I don't think so) second) the latest kernel is definitely an efi image that can be booted directly. In this case, ok, I'll try copying this kernel's version to my hfs+ boot partition. That said, I'm not sure if new macs do have the possibility to tweak the BIOS but my old model for sure doesn't have. In no way I can switch between secure/unsecure boot mode. My guess is that the EFI firmware is booting in UNSAFE mode by default (and actually this is what grub says very early at boot, BEFORE displaying the classical purple screen). Anyway, I'll try with the latest kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1453052 Title: X fails to automatically detect ATI radeon RV600 card Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Good day.

I'm testing pure EFI boot capability on my iMac 7.1 (graphic card ATI radeon HD2600 pro). So far, with Ubuntu 14.10, i've been able to boot directly into a perfectly working system using the EFI kernel stub. No GRUB, no ELILO, no rEFIND, no boot manager whatsoever! And the result was amazing! Boot up time reduced to a fraction of the time needed by GRUB, for example, Compiz compositing much more quickly and and efficiently. I could notice even some graphical detail (e.g. Text shadows in the GDM log-in screen) that were not present if booting via GRUB. The way to accomplished this is simple: 1) Create a small (40MB or less) HFS+ partition. E.g. # sudo mkfs.hfsplus /dev/sdaX -v Ubuntu (EFI-Stub) 2) Copy to the new partition the files vmlinuz-3.XX.YY-ZZ-generic.efi.signed and initrd.img-3.XX.YY-ZZ-generig. Also rename them to vmlinuz.efi and initrd.img for sake of simplicity in further command line work. Furthermore, Apple's EFI won't boot anything that doesn't end with the .efi extension. 3) Create a boot entry in the NVRAM using efibootmgr like this: # sudo efibootmgr -d /dev/sdX -p Y -c -L Ubuntu 14.04 LTS -l /vmlinuz.efi -u root=UUID=b0c4efb9-95b0-4e5d-98e1-8beb43f413c2 ro rootflags=subvol=@ quiet splash initrd=\initrd.img 4) reboot (and enjoy!) As i've said, in Ubuntu 14 all this is working fine, but after the upgrade to Ubuntu 15, X doesn't start anymore. The system starts up correctly but X fails (with error: (EE) No devices detected. (EE) Fatal server error: (EE) no screens found) dropping me to a tty console login. I'm not shure if it is a X problem or a kernel KMS bug, but i'm more inclined to think of a problem with X because i've tried to boot Ubuntu 15.0 with the old kernel (3.13/16) and the problem is still there. I've also tried to add vt.handoff=7 to the command line args for the kernel, like grub does, but the result is even worse. The system freezes completely at the moment of starting X. Please note also that booting via grub is working. X starts, much more slowly but starts. (Actually i'm reporting this bug from the very same system booted using GRUB. I have a second HFS+ partition where i installed grub and i can access it by holding down the ALT key at power-up) Thanks for your work. I really hope that booting directly via EFI stubs will grow mature because the performance increase is really big. Thanks again.

E.g. # sudo mkfs.hfsplus /dev/sdaX -v Ubuntu (EFI-Stub) 2) Copy to the new partition the files vmlinuz-3.XX.YY-ZZ-generic.efi.signed and initrd.img-3.XX.YY-ZZ-generig. Also rename them to vmlinuz.efi and initrd.img for sake of simplicity in further command line work. Furthermore, Apple's EFI won't boot anything that doesn't end with the .efi extension. 3) Create a boot entry in the NVRAM using efibootmgr like this: # sudo efibootmgr -d /dev/sdX -p Y -c -L Ubuntu 14.04 LTS -l /vmlinuz.efi -u root=UUID=b0c4efb9-95b0-4e5d-98e1-8beb43f413c2 ro rootflags=subvol=@ quiet splash initrd=\initrd.img 4) reboot (and enjoy!) As i've said, in Ubuntu 14 all this is working fine, but after the upgrade to Ubuntu 15, X doesn't start anymore. The system starts up correctly but X fails (with error: (EE) No devices detected. (EE) Fatal server error: (EE) no screens found) dropping me to a tty console login. I'm not shure if it is a X problem or a kernel KMS bug, but i'm more inclined to think of a problem with X because i've tried to boot Ubuntu 15.0 with the old kernel (3.13/16) and the problem is still there. I've also tried to add vt.handoff=7 to the command line args for the kernel, like grub does, but the result is even worse. The system freezes completely at the moment of starting X. Please note also that booting via grub is working. X starts, much more slowly but starts. (Actually i'm reporting this bug from the very same system booted using GRUB. I have a second HFS+ partition where i installed grub and i can access it by holding down the ALT key at power-up) Thanks for your work. I really hope that booting directly via EFI stubs will grow mature because the performance increase is really big. Thanks again.

It is still readable (and usable) but the graphical output is like covered with a fine grid of vertical white lines, each (apparently) 1px wide, interleaved with 1px lines from the underlying real image, so that the effect is similar to a grayed-out image. Mouse is visible (and working). Writings are (almost) visible too, so that the the system is (hardly) usable, but the only way to restore proper video functionality is reboot. Useless to switch to a text-only tty and back (ctrl-alt f2 followed by alt f7).

Hi. Fresh additional information. Googling around i've stumbled in another bug which recalls this. Apparently lightdm is (occasionally) killing himself. Browsing the lightdm.log file i've found this: [+03.05] Got signal 15 from process [the PID of lightdm itself!] So lightdm is apparently killing himself. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1061149 Title: boot occasionally hangs while Checking battery state...

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1061149] Re: boot occasionally hangs while Checking battery state...
Hi again everybody. I've made some other test and i've discovered something i suppose could be a hint. As i've already said, i'm able to reach the lightdm login screen only, let's say, 3 or 4 times out of 10, but all the times, i.e. ten out of ten, i cannot see the ubuntu starting screen, with its typical five flashing dots. This leads me to think that it could be a problem wit KMS in EFI mode, because i've been able to see this screen at all times during the installation. The only difference, hence, is probably that the cd-media i used to boot the installer, started in bios mode (but i cannot be sure about that, actually i don't remember how i started the installer). As further hint i can add that i started to have the same strange behavior in Fedora 17 with the difference that in Fedora by no means i could be able to reach a login screen while in Ubuntu it (occasionally) works :-). I hope this information can help.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1061149] Re: boot occasionally hangs while Checking battery state...
Hi everybody. I'm experiencing the same problem, with the difference that i'm not running a virtual machine. It's Ubuntu 12.10 on a fresh new install on iMac 7.1. It hangs, let's say, 6 or 7 times out of 10 anywhere from the first checking battery state (and my desktop, obviously doesn't have any battery) I've googled around and i've found a workaround (sort of) but it's by no mean a real fix (i hit ctrl-alt-f1, then login, then sudo su and finally pkill X. This restart X and i have my login screen back) By the way, i'm EFI-dual-booting alongside with Mac OSX, if this informations can help.

This is an up-to-date 12.10 guest running in VMware Fusion 5.0.1 (825449) on OS X 10.6.8. I've disabled the splash screen so I can watch the boot process. ctrl-C (and other keystrokes) seems to be echoed back to the console, but has no effect. When I send ctrl-alt-delete (via the VMware Virtual Machine menu item), I see acpid exiting and the machine shuts down and reboots. It usually successfully reboots after this, but not always. I suppose not surprisingly, this seems related to power status pass-through. If you go to VMware's settings-Other-Advanced and turn off Pass power status to VM then it seems like boot never hangs. Note though that I have had this setting enabled for ages, and enabling doesn't guarantee that the boot will hang. But it never seems to hang with the setting disabled. --- ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal - Alpha amd64 (20120709.1) Package: pm-utils PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-17.28-generic 3.5.5 Tags: quantal running-unity Uname: Linux 3.5.0-17-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo --- ApportVersion: 2.6.2-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USERPID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: barry 3957 F pulseaudio CRDA: Error: command ['iw', 'reg', 'get'] failed with exit code 1: nl80211 not found.
