[Touch-packages] [Bug 1765923] Re: Nvidia driver leads to black screen on bionic 18.04 SDDM LightDM bug?

2018-06-06 Thread Mike Butash
I upgraded from 17.04 to this, and can't get to a desktop now.  Really
regretting using ubuntu, yet again.  This is a dell xps 15 9550, I
finally had to try an upgrade due to various weird issues with 17.04
still, but at least it worked vs. now.  Might try nouveau as
recommended.

Title:
  Nvidia driver leads to black screen on bionic 18.04 SDDM LightDM bug?

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in sddm package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using the April 19th daily build of Kubuntu 18.04 I installed the
  Nvidia drivers via the following command.

  sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

  The install process proceeds fine and after a logout process I get a
  black screen.  I tried this on the April 17th daily build of bionic
  and a reboot also results in a black screen.

  The following is a question which was submitted by a Ubuntu 17.10 user: QUOTE
  After I installed latest Nvidia driver-390 and tried to boot after shutting 
down once I faced a black screen problem. since, I'm a noob but something 
related to nvidia drivers couldn't be started. Then I followed 
https://askubuntu.com/a/968692/802490
  While following these instructions re-installing of nvidia drivers failed. 
The only things that worked is purging the drivers and changing 
"WaylandEnable=false" in (/etc/gdm3/custom.conf). Now, I want to re-install 
nvidia drivers again but I'm afraid that this will lead to that problem again. 
Can anyone help in re-installing the driver such that I won't face that 
problem?  END QUOTE

  THE WORK AROUND

  Use Ctrl-Alt-f6 to get to a login prompt.
  Login
  run  "startx"

  The x server will start and Nvidia drivers will function.

  THE PROBLEM
  When I try to run SDDM I get an error (Which I will try to copy down to add 
to this bug when I am on a different computer than the one I am reporting the 
bug about.).

  Installing lightDM does not work... it installs but is either will not
  run or will not actually start a x session.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1551122] Re: Crash on screen power save

2016-05-05 Thread Mike Butash
I'm currently on 5.5.1+dfsg-16ubuntu7, which should be newer and include
these, no?

I found this digging into why xenial's kde5 plasma shell and all kde
apps keep freaking when my 4k displays go away.  Like others, I use big
4k tv's (3x of them) that give no signal when they power down, so the
displays go away entirely with variable results.

Harassing the kwin guys led me here as deeper qt bugs, but still seems
present as of stated version.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1238194] Re: keyboard doesn't work to enter password with encrypted partitions ubuntu 13.10 saucy

2016-04-21 Thread Mike Butash
I recently upgraded my trusty kernel from 3.16 to 3.19, and got hit with
this bug with a logitech wireless keyboard.  Seems all the kernel builds
are omitting critical hid drivers in the initrd, yet again.  Add in the
fact my current mobo bios just simply wouldn't let grub catch my shift
to break the boot menu to single mode.  Very ugly, very not happy day.

Since I've gone to 4.4 kernel, and see the same issue with it, so it
seems persistent and unfixed still at least on trusty repos.  With 4.4,
at least wired keyboard works, so I've been just keeping a second one
around until I got to hunt for this more.

The recovery is obviously not pretty, and this has happened a few times
I remember, as I've used luks since ~2008.  It would be extremely nice
if upstream or at least the vendor packagers run regression tests for
this LUKS use case in particular formulated to avoid stranding people at
their disk unlock menus and figuring out how to make a boot disk without
the system they were just using.

Bug description:
  [Justification]
  With the kernel in 13.10, some systems use a different USB host driver than 
previously.  Failing to include this driver in the initramfs causes regressions 
for users who need to interact with the system in early boot using a USB 
keyboard, such as users with an encrypted root filesystem.  Such systems are 
not bootable with this host driver missing.

  [Test case]
  1. On an affected system, reboot to a kernel from 13.04.
  2. Install the initramfs-tools package from -proposed.
  3. Reboot to the kernel from 13.10.
  4. Verify that you are able to type your passphrase at the prompt in the 
initramfs.

  [Regression potential]
  Minimal.  The update-initramfs script will ignore missing modules (such as 
the many other modules in the list which are built-ins), and the only change 
made is to copy the module into the initramfs: it will only be loaded in the 
initramfs if udev determines it's needed, just as it would load it after 
switching to the root filesystem.

  
  Is the same problem as here but in the new ubuntu 13.10 saucy 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066376

  I just can't use (i can install) a encrypted partition because when is
  time to introduce the password to unlock partition keyboard is not
  working.

  I don't know how to edit a bug to report it afects other version of
  ubuntu so i created this new bug...
