Hey Daniel,

The other thing I noticed in the the boot logs are a seemingly futile
loop:

This appears first at 11:38:36 in the first boot log, and then repeats
over and over and over until the machine turns off.  The same loop
appears in longhangprevboot2.txt and starts at 12:21:55.  What is the
machine trying to do here?  I suspect that this is what's happening in
the background when the computer hangs, and it may even describe why
it does not record the whole boot sequence for the 20 minutes after it
hangs.  Thoughts?


I have not used Ubuntu 16.04, nor Lubuntu 18.04.1.  I'll download
Lubuntu and see how that works out.  But, I am a little concerned
about getting it to install correctly.  Whenever I try to get the
computer to recognize the CD image and to boot from it, I have to spam
"1" and "Enter" over and over and sometimes it works.  Have you run
into this issue before?

Alexander A Theiler, MHS,

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1811599] Re: When booting, the computer hangs at a purple screen and no login prompt is ever displayed [Apple Macbook 2, 1 - Intel GMA 950]

2019-01-22 Thread Alexander A Theiler

Hey Daniel,

I've recorded two long hangs for you and your team to analyze.

Please find attached longhangprevboot.txt and longhangprevboot2.txt.

The only difference between the two is that longhangprevboot.txt followed
the following timeline:
normal mode -> restart to long hang -> restart to recovery mode and record
previous boot

Whereas, longhangprevboot2.txt followed the following:
normal mode -> restart to long hang -> restart to normal mode and record
previous boot

I let both of these boots hang for about 20 minutes before restarting the
machine.  Strangely, both logs don't seem to reflect that.  Unless they do,
and I simply didn't interpret the data correctly.  Ideas?

Thanks

Alex

2019-01-21 Thread Alexander A Theiler

Hey Daniel,

Yeah, at the beginning of this all, I thought it was taking a long time to
boot as well, but even after letting the system sit at the purple screen
for quite some time, it never went anywhere.  I had a though that my
ancient laptop might simply be too old to properly run Ubuntu, but I was
optimistic.  What's strange is that after it crashes, it boots entirely
normally, and runs very well without any lag or video issues at all.

I'll chalk this up to being a bug related to my system being quite old.

Do you still want that new boot log after 15 minutes of waiting?

Thanks

Alex
