[Bug 1382909] Re: Dell XPS 15Z Requires Kernel Parameters to Boot Correctly
Sorry Chris, Fix CommittedFixed, but not available until next release. made it sound like the upstream commit had been made and would fix the issue once 3.18 was merged in 15.04. With regards to the bisect I can say with certainty it is one of these: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/6/515 Is there any merit to me narrowing down a more specific commit? Would a patch be backported, or should I just wait for 15.04? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1382909 Title: Dell XPS 15Z Requires Kernel Parameters to Boot Correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1382909/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

md_5, if you would like a backport to a current release, then the specific commit would need to be identified and tested on your hardware. Once testing verifies it fixes the issue, then it would be considered for a backport. Otherwise, you would wait until whichever release contains a fix for your issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1382909 Title: Dell XPS 15Z Requires Kernel Parameters to Boot Correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1382909/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The following commit resolves this issue: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/0b8db271f1592e118feef7300f6da85bea9366da It applies cleanly to 3.17.1, backported from 3.18RC1.

[Bug 1382909] Re: Dell XPS 15Z Requires Kernel Parameters to Boot Correctly
I am genuinely surprised. Despite 3.17 having worse issues (bugged display dimming as well), 3.18 RC1 appears to work fine without any paramaters at all: Linux XPS-15Z 3.18.0-031800rc1-generic #201410192135 SMP Mon Oct 20 01:37:04 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Looking forward to 15.04 I guess :) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1382909 Title: Dell XPS 15Z Requires Kernel Parameters to Boot Correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1382909/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

md_5, this is not Fix Committed as outlined in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status . Despite this, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect the linux kernel in order to identify the fix commit. Could you please do this following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection#How_do_I_reverse_bisect_the_upstream_kernel.3F ? Once the commit has been identified, then please mark this Status Confirmed. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed = Incomplete ** Tags added: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-3.18-rc1 needs-reverse-bisect -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1382909 Title: Dell XPS 15Z Requires Kernel Parameters to Boot Correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1382909/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1382909] Re: Dell XPS 15Z Requires Kernel Parameters to Boot Correctly
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.18 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'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as Confirmed. Thanks in advance.
