This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- xenial' to 'verification-done-xenial'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-failed- xenial'. If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed- bionic'. If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

Ok, including my own testing we got 4 positive feedback. With that being said, I have just submitted the patch to our kernel team a few minutes ago. This will be part of the next cycle 01-July through 21-July.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1832138] Re: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx using bionic kernel 4.15
Additional confirmation... Looks like this updated kernel fixes the issue on the affected test VM I created. Using the detailed directions in comment #75, I was able to install the new test kernel and reboot. Verified the expected version value with uname and then installed the packages that were previously hanging from the copies I archived with the test VM and rebooted. Login showed up and functioned as normal. This appears to be the ideal fix. -- 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/1832138 Title: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx using bionic kernel 4.15 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux-hwe package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in linux-hwe source package in Bionic: Fix Released Status in mutter source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in linux source package in Eoan: Invalid Status in linux-hwe source package in Eoan: Invalid Status in mutter source package in Eoan: Invalid Bug description: [Impact] With most recent version of mutter installed.

Here is the last of the output after running the first test repo update command in comment #73 on the Bug1832138VM.zip VM I built. I'm guessing either there is an integrity issue upstream or more likely there is a missing step so that a system that has been using the default repo settings is superseded by the test repo for the updated package(s). If I ignore these errors and upgrade after update I get the 49 year hang on reboot.

I already did that test ^ using the upstream kernel with 37efe80ce85f being the HEAD, but "37efe80ce85f" - 1 was working as well, so I didn't continue to pursue that commit, since it wasn't the first introduction of the fix.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1832138] Re: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx using bionic kernel 4.15
And the problem is indeed the kernel advertising DRM_CAP_TIMESTAMP_MONOTONIC but instead of using CLOCK_MONOTONIC it is really using CLOCK_REALTIME. This confirms kernel commit 37efe80ce85f is the fix, but it may well have some prerequisite commits we haven't fully worked out... https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?h=v5.2-rc5=37efe80ce85f I'll see if I can hack around it, but the simplicity of the mistake in the vmwgfx kernel code makes me think we should be preferring a kernel fix still. -- 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/1832138 Title: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx using bionic kernel 4.15 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux-hwe package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in linux-hwe source package in Bionic: Fix Released Status in mutter source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in linux source package in Eoan: Invalid Status in linux-hwe source package in Eoan: Invalid Status in mutter source package in Eoan: Invalid Bug description: I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.2 desktop in a virtual machine under VMWare Fusion Pro V11.1.0 on MacOS Mojave 10.14.5, all on a 15inch 2018 Macbook Pro.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1832138] Re: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx using bionic kernel 4.15
I am now able to reproduce and debug the problem. Indeed it is what I said in comment #31. The vmwgfx driver in this old kernel is telling lies. It says the next screen refresh is in 49 years from now. It should be within 16.6 milliseconds. ** Summary changed: - Login screen never appears on vmwgfx but installing kernel >= v4.17-rc1 (or using WaylandEnable=false) fixes it + Login screen never appears on vmwgfx using bionic kernel 4.15 -- 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/1832138 Title: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx using bionic kernel 4.15 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux-hwe package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in linux-hwe source package in Bionic: Fix Released Status in mutter source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in linux source package in Eoan: Invalid Status in linux-hwe source package in Eoan: Invalid Status in mutter source package in Eoan: Invalid Bug description: I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.2 desktop in a virtual machine under VMWare Fusion Pro V11.1.0 on MacOS Mojave 10.14.5, all on a 15inch 2018 Macbook Pro.
