[Bug 1697450] Re: Whole machine freezes at startup using kernels after 4.8
So, it seems that changing a bios setting for the (builtin) video card frequency to "Auto" fixed the issue. it was previously set to match the RAM freq (as the video memory is shared). I can now run 4.13 fine. Maybe something changed in the intel driver in 4.9 that makes it freeze when a fixed freq is set? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1697450 Title: Whole machine freezes at startup using kernels after 4.8 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1697450/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I tested the 4.9.0-040900-generic (4.9.0-040900.201612111631) kernel from the mainline PPA, same issue. Looking at the boot output the last message I see is about gdm.service starting.

[Bug 1697450] Re: Whole machine freezes at startup using kernels after 4.8
yes, Zesty has the same issue, and apparently bionic too. FTR I've tried the v4.14.12 one from the mainline PPA and it behaves the same.
