For the CPU firmware (CPU microcode?) update issue: sorry, it's completely out of my scope -- I only work on Linux.

[Bug 1848534] Re: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts
I don't have much knowledge bout systemd, either :-) I just did a "man systemd" and found the options of systemd. "man systemd" says that we can use pass these kernel parameters to systemd: systemd.service_watchdogs=true systemd.show_status=true systemd.log_level=debug systemd.dsystemd.default_standard_output=kmsg systemd.default_standard_error=kmsg I tried these by adding them into /boot/grub/grub.cfg manually, at the end of the line "linux /boot/vmlinuz-5.3.0-23-generic ...". I also replaced "quiet splash $vt_handoff" with "ignore_loglevel". So I can get more messages from systemd, but not so much as I expected. Not sure if this would be helpful to troubleshoot the long delay issue for you, and I'm not even sure if I enabled the systemd loggong completely correctly -- again, I'm not really familiar with systemd. :-) To stop/disble a systemd "service", I think we can use something like this (taking the setvtrgb.service as an example): systemctl stop setvtrgb.service systemctl disable setvtrgb.service systemctl status setvtrgb.service -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848534 Title: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1848534/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1848534] Re: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts
Since Alt-SysRq-w gives nothing, I'm sure the long delay is not a
kernel/driver issue but a user space issue. It looks due to some reason
I just can not reproduce the long delay. :-(
In the Hyper-V Virtual Machine Connection window's "View" menu, there is
an item "Enhanced Session". In my Ubuntu 19.10 VM created by "Quick
Create...", the xrdp daemon/service is configured to automatically run
during the boot-up procedure; I think as soon as the xrdp daemon starts
to run, the "Enhanced Session" item becomes clickable/usable, and I can
click it to toggle between "Enhanced Session" mode (i.e. xrdp mode) and
the native Xorg GUI mode; when I'm in the xrdp mode, I click VM
Connection window's Action | Shut Down, then Start, and the VM will boot
up to the xrdp login screen in about 14 seconds; when I'm in the Xorg
mode, I click Shutdown then Start, the VM will boot up to the Xorg GUI
desktop in about 30 seconds. If I shut down the VM, close the VM
Connection window, and start the VM and open VM Connection window, I'll
be prompted by a small pop-up window to choose a resolution when (I
think) the xrdp daemon starts to run: 1) if I click the close icon of
the small window, I'll be in the Xorg GUI mode; if I accept the default
resolution (or change to a different resolution) and click "connect" in
the small window, I'll be in the xrdp mode. So all these work pretty
good for me.
Note: after I just created the 19.10 VM by "Quick Create..." and set up
the host name and user name/password stuff, I rebooted the VM and when
the VM booted up, I found the "Enhanced Session" was not
clickable/usable -- this looks like a bug -- while I still don't know
the root cause, it looks this can be resolved by manually adding the
line "initrd/boot/initrd.img-5.3.0-23-generic #This line is
added by Dexuan manually" into "/boot/grub/grub.cfg":
menuentry 'Ubuntu' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os
$menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-55829715-0091-4b86-b060-1cb88f342faf' {
...
if [ "${initrdfail}" = 1 ]; then

panic=-1
initrd/boot/initrd.img-5.3.0-23-generic #This line is added
by Dexuan manually!!!
fi
initrdfail
}
With the addition of the line, it looks "GRUB_TIMEOUT=0" in "/etc/default/grub"
is always really applied every time I reboot the VM.
Without the line, it looks sometimes the grub timeout is 30 second and
sometimes it's 0 second.
BTW, I reported a bug for the missing initrd line a few weeks ago for a
different issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1870189.
I suggest you also manually add the line, then I guess you should be
able to reliably toggle between xrdp mode and Xorg mode.
Note: "/boot/grub/grub.cfg" is overwritten when update-grub is run by us
or some automatic-update daemon, so we may want to check if the line is
still there when we see something unexpected (i.e. unable to use xrdp
mode, or see a grub timeout of 30s). I hope Bug 1870189 will be fixed by
somebody ASAP...

RE: [Bug 1848534] Re: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts
I followed your instructions of 4/21 regarding changing kernel parameters and attaching PuTTY etc. Screenshot of the edited parameters is next to your email attached (if attachment won't get published, I will post online). I can send the PuTTY output, but I don't think we learned anything we didn't already see in dmesg. Console login prompt comes up quickly, then the long delay in the Hyper-V Connection window before arriving at the Xorg GUI login. Alt-SysRq-w during this time gives nothing, just two lines like these: [ 70.428525] sysrq: Show Blocked State [ 70.429990] taskPC stack pid father While doing this, I noticed today that some previously reliable ways to get to the "shortcut boot" (the XRDP login screen, which comes up quickly, instead of waiting for the Xorg screen) were no longer reliable (e.g., sometimes "power off" force in Hyper-V Manager and restart led to a long boot). I also discovered a state in which starting the VM from an "off" state in Hyper-V Manager apparently skipped even the Grub screen and went quickly to XRDP login screen. At this point I rebooted the host. Some deep kind of Windows caching going on? After reboot, behaviors earlier described became predictable again. Three questions: 1) You wrote on 4/22 (second mail): "I also tried xrdp mode and the VM booted up to the xrdp login window in 14 seconds, which is faster than the "native Xorg GUI mode" (which needs 30s)". How did you intentionally "try XRDP mode"? How do you have any control over whether you get the XRDP or Xorg login screen? It seems to me I do not have any control. >From a user's perspective, that is the whole problem here, how to get the XRDP login screen on first startup (and all subsequent) of a 19.10 VM within a given Hyper-V Connection window. As shown earlier, when the user gets the XRDP login, the (presumably) same processes are still being delayed for the same length of time as when the user is forced to wait for the Xorg login screen, but the user has meanwhile been able to log in via XRDP and begin doing his or her work. Furthermore, screen size control and cut-and-paste from guest to host are available only with the XRDP login. From user's perspective, I think the problem is solved once user can log into the VM and start working without waiting for a 90s timeout, and screen size control and cut-paste are operational. Which in my case seems to be equivalent to being able to get the XRDP login screen reliably; if I get it, it always arrives quickly. 2) You wrote on 4/21: "It looks systemd can be configured to use "--log-level=debug --default- standard-output=kmsg --default-standard- error=kmsg". Please advise me how to do this. I administered Debian systems from Buzz (1996) to Squeeze (2011), and a lot of the boot process is new to me. (In those days, one had to use Ctrl-S / Ctrl-Q to be able to read booting output.) 3) You wrote on 4/22: "I'm wondering if you can disable setvtrgb.service, system-getty.slice, systemd-update-utmp- runlevel.service, and plymouth-quit-wait.service, and see if the long delay will disappear. I guess these 4 services don't look critical to the GUI desktop." Likewise, please advise me *how* to disable them. I've been trying unsuccessfully to disable Ubuntu automatic updates (in another VM, not the one I am testing) and have concluded that I really do not understand any of this newfangled .service stuff. (And I shouldn't have to, to achieve that objective, but that is a different gripe.) ** Attachment added: "kernel_parameters.PNG" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848534/+attachment/5359626/+files/kernel_parameters.PNG -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848534 Title: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1848534/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

You missed that I did include the output of 'systemctl list-jobs' during the crucial interval of delay. I will follow your instructions regarding boot parameters etc. and post results asap. I expect there is an enormous difference between accessing the VM via RPD (XRDP) protocol and accessing the VM via the more native interface (purple screen) which is eventually available on 19.10, even though both are accessed through the Hyper-V "Connection" interface. XRDP seems like the preferred way, it's the only way I get to 18.04, and forcing it on 19.10 is the only way I get screen size control and cut-and-paste from guest to host. Am seeking confirmation of what is the correct/preferred behavior is with 19.10. Should I be getting the "native" purple login screen quickly and then have cut-paste and screen control, or should be getting the XRDP interface quickly, just like I do with 18.04? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848534 Title: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1848534/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I created a Ubuntu 19.10 VM via "Quick Create..." and still can not reproduce the long delay of > 1 minute: the VM can boot up to the Xorg GUI desktop in 26 seconds. My Windows 10 has the same version info: Version 1909 (OS Build 18363.778). At the grub screen, can you press 'e' and, manually edit the kernel parameter: please remove the "quiet splash $vt_handoff" and add "ignore_loglevel sysrq_always_enabled". You may want to enable the serial console logging by adding the kernel parameter "console=ttyS0", and attach putty (Run as Administrator) to the named pipe \\.\pipe\debug_slow_vm, assuming you configure the VM serial console by "Set-VMComPort -VMName your_vm_name -number 1 -path \\.\pipe\debug_slow_vm"). This way, you should get more messages on the VM serial console when the VM boots up. When you see the long delay, you can press SysRQ+w (i.e. the Right Alt + SysRq + w) to show the blocked processes, if any. This may provide more info about the long delay. BTW, here I assume your have a keyboard that has the SysRq key. :-) It looks systemd can be configured to use "--log-level=debug --default- standard-output=kmsg --default-standard-error=kmsg", which may provide more info as well, if we check 'dmesg' and/or the VM serial console. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848534 Title: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1848534/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Now we are getting somewhere. X windows system implicated. Though the 2d video shows how fast the shortcut boot is, I thought I should get a firm number so I did the shortcut boot and logged in to get output of 'systemd-analyze critical- chain' and I got the following very interesting responses, shell dialogue copied below. The same processes (I would assume) are hanging for 1m44s, but the shortcut somehow allows the user to log in while waiting for them to finish (as well as solving the other problems of clipboard and screen size, which seem to go with the more primitive login screen). Whether those processes should take 1m44s or not, I don't know, maybe it is normal, but the user should be able to log in before they are complete, as I can do with shortcut boot. If those processes are taking inordinately long, then shortcut boot gives opportunity to log in and catch them as they struggle, as seen below.

[Bug 1848534] Re: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts
I've created a 2m35s desktop video showing a boot of stock 18.04 and
19.10 on my system, posted at https://chaetura.net/ms-
vid1-bug-1848534.webm (18MB, renders in Chrome window for me, or use VLC
to watch).
I've posted a second video showing the shortcut to boot 19.10 quickly
that I described earlier, but which I have simplified to simply pulling
the plug with "power off" from Hyper-V at the grub menu, do not close
the Connection window, restart, and 19.10 will boot fast. Note that
"system setup" (I previously mistakenly wrote "system startup") doesn't
appear in the grub menu of stock 19.10; it appears only after updating
packages in Ubuntu. Yes, I am able to select the “restart” button with
the keyboard. But then the shortcut doesn’t work; what triggers the
shortcut is powering off the VM.
https://chaetura.net/ms-vid2-bug-1848534.webm
Furthermore, the shortcut boot of 19.10 solves *THREE* significant
problems with stock 19.10 that are not problems with stock 18.04.3.
Reasonable conclusion is that all three problems have the same cause,
which somehow the shortcut boot avoids:
1) avoids the long delay in startup
2) allows user to select any screen size for the Connection (whereas
stock 19.10 came in one size only and user has no opportunity to select;
goes hand in hand with the different login screen, as you can see in
video.
3) after login, cut-and-paste from guest to host is possible. Not
functional with stock 19.10.
I see that graphical artifact at some point during boot of any Ubuntu VM
in Hyper-V. You can see it in the video too. In 19.10 it comes while the
Spectre mitigation message is on the screen in console, at a point where
console changes its rendering/mode somehow and the message reappears in
a slightly different font.
I forgot to show /proc/cmdline and "uname -a" in the video but for 19.10
it is:
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.3.0-23-generic root=PARTUUID=[blahblah] ro quiet

Note that I installed my 19.10 via Hyper-V Manager's "quick-create"
rather than from an .iso downloaded separately. Same kernel version, but
mine is an earlier packaging number, and who knows what else may be
different about the install image. The manager says the image was
updated 17 October 2019. The Manager downloads a zip file from partner-
images.canonical.com via https so I cannot snoop the URL looking at the
packets. I have a copy of the .vhdx which is insie the zip file, and I'm
messing around with trying to mount it in another VM but I haven't
solved that yet.
My Windows 10 Pro x64 build (today) is Win10: Version 1909 (OS Build
18363.778). No further windows updates are available, and I don't
understand Windows version numbers, so I can't explain the discrepancy
from yours.
The startup delay persists after updating the stock install of 19.10
(using aptitude; all available updates accepted but the grub packages
held back till I learn how to do them; they broke my last install).
I noticed while making the video that during the long startup delay, the
process is using GPU at 5% -- significant amount of usage (documented in
video). Therefore I've included my GPU information at bottom below.
I boot stock quick-create 19.10. I change the name of the VM only

[Bug 1848534] Re: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts
I've created a 2m35s desktop video showing a boot of stock 18.04 and
19.10 on my system, posted at https://chaetura.net/ms-
vid1-bug-1848534.webm (18MB, renders in Chrome window for me, or use VLC
to watch).
I've posted a second video showing the shortcut to boot 19.10 quickly
that I described earlier, but which I have simplified to simply pulling
the plug with "power off" from Hyper-V at the grub menu, do not close
the Connection window, restart, and 19.10 will boot fast. Note that
"system setup" (I previously mistakenly wrote "system startup") doesn't
appear in the grub menu of stock 19.10; it appears only after updating
packages in Ubuntu.
Furthermore, the shortcut boot of 19.10 solves *THREE* significant
problems with stock 19.10 that are not problems with stock 18.04.3:
1) avoids the long delay in startup
2) allows user to select any screen size for the Connection (whereas stock
19.10 came in one size only
and user has no opportunity to select; goes hand in hand with the
different login screen, as you
I see that graphical artifact at some point during boot of any Ubuntu VM in
Hyper-V. You can see it in the video too. In 19.10 it comes while the Spectre
mitigation message is on the screen in console, at a point where console
changes its rendering/mode somehow and the message reappears in a slightly
different font.
I forgot to show /proc/cmdline and "uname -a" in the video but for 19.10 it is:
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.3.0-23-generic root=PARTUUID=[blahblah] ro quiet
splash
Linux stock19 5.3.0-23-generic #25-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 12 09:22:33 UTC 2019
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
and in 18.04.3 it is
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.0.0-25-generic root=LABEL=desktop-rootfs ro
quiet splash vt.handoff=1
Linux stock18 5.0.0-25-generic #26~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 1 13:51:02
UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Note that I installed my 19.10 via Hyper-V Manager's "quick-create"
rather than from an .iso downloaded separately. Same kernel version, but
mine is an earlier packaging number, and who knows what else may be
different about the install image. The manager says the image was
updated 17 October 2019. The Manager downloads a zip file from partner-
images.canonical.com via https so I cannot snoop the URL looking at the
packets. I have a copy of the .vhdx which is insie the zip file, and I'm
messing around with trying to mount it in another VM but I haven't
solved that yet.
My Windows 10 Pro x64 build (today) is Win10: Version 1909 (OS Build
18363.778). No further windows updates are available, and I don't
understand Windows version numbers, so I can't explain the discrepancy
from yours.
The startup delay persists after updating the stock install of 19.10
(using aptitude; all available updates accepted but the grub packages
held back till I learn how to do them; they broke my last install).
I noticed while making the video that during the long startup delay, the
process is using GPU at 5% -- significant amount of usage (documented in
video). Therefore I've included my GPU information at bottom below.
I boot stock quick-create 19.10. I change the name of the VM only
("Stock19"). Default ethernet adapter. Note that the first boot is
immediate; the only one that will ever be that fast, unless I go through
the restart sequence described last time. (On that subject, I don't get
the "system setup" grub option in the stock 19.10, only after updates.
You probably figured out I mistakenly wrote "system startup" earlier
instead of "system setup" as well. And yes, keyboard can select
"restart" but in this case, the shortcut does *NOT* work. Only pulling
the plug on the VM from Hyper-V ) On first boot, I go through Ubuntu
configuration screens minimally. Post-install runs. No further updates,
just reboot noq (because critical-chain timings are much longer the
first boot than all subsequent boots). Login, run terminal, sudo-i, then
systemd-analyze critical-chain:
first line is: graphical.target @1min 44.651s
This is typical of all subsequent boots.
I'm not copying the full output all because cut-and-paste text from
guest to host is broken for me in 19.10. It is not broken in an 18.04.3
guest ("updated 19 August 2019" in Hyper-V Manager).
Also in 19.10 I never get the choice of a screen size for the guest when
connecting; it is always the same size. I get the choice in 18.04 and
can choose any size including full-screen, and it just works.
I understand that these other problems with 19.10 guest may be off-
topic; I am mentioning them here in case they correlate to the current
topic. In summary, four significant problems with 19.10 that do not
exist in 18.04, both out of the box quick-create, using same host: 1)
the long delay at startup. 2) no cut-and-paste from guest to host. 3) no
capability to resize Hyper-V Connection screen. 4) requires research to
get past a grub update.
Here for comparison is the critical-chain for 18.04, which I can cut-
and-paste. Less

BTW, my Linux kernel version is 5.3.0-46-generic #38-Ubuntu (17:37:05, 3/27/2020). The "graphic artifact" is somehow caused by the "$vt_hanoff" kernel parameter (check "cat /proc/cmdline"). If I manually remove the "$vt_hanoff" at the grub screen, I won't see the "graphic artifact" -- Ubuntu guys should take a look and fix the issue, as I'm not familiar with "vt_handoff". @msgallery: I never see the "1:40" (1 minutes and 40 seconds) delay reported in comment #40. Maybe you can use "systemd-analyze critical- chain" (mentioned in Comment #25) to figure out why the delay happened. To recap, my experience with the fresh Desktop installation of Ubuntu 19.10 (Gen-2 VM) on Hyper-V is good, except for the minor "graphic artifact" issue.

[Bug 1848534] Re: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts
Today I installed a Generation-2 VM (4 virtual CPUS, 4 GB memory) from the this .iso file: http://releases.ubuntu.com/19.10/ubuntu-19.10-desktop-amd64.iso. My host is Win10: Version 1909 (OS Build 18383.720) -- I got the info by running the built-in "winver.exe" program. The CPU type is Intel Core I7-7600 (2.80G Hz). There are 2 cores and the cores support SMT, so there are 4 logical processors in total. I can see the "graphic artifact" (I will upload a screenshot soon), but it looks overall the boot-up is fast (it takes 30 seconds) and it looks the VM works fine for me. When the VM boots up: 1. First, the screen with the purple background (I think it's from grub) remains 4 seconds. 2. The screen background becomes black, and there is a "Hyper-V" logo in the center of the screen. This remains about 1 second. 3. The screen with the "graphic artifact" appears, and remains about 4 seconds. 4. The screen background becomes purple and the "Ubuntu" logo with 5 dots appears. This screen remains 8 seconds. 5. The screen becomes completely black. This screen remains 9 seconds. 6. The screen becomes kind of purple again, and in about 2 seconds the GUI desktop appears (I set Ubuntu to automatically login in to the desktop). So the overall time spent on the 6 steps are 30 seconds.

[Bug 1848534] Re: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts
I reproduced this with Win10 x64 up to date on 4/11/2020 and the stock "quick create" versions of Ubuntu 18.04 and 19.10 as referenced and selected from the Hyper-V manager. Default options all the way. No updates installed after initial installation. This machine has AMD Ryzen 7 3800X and 32GB memory, NVMe SSD system drive -- it's fast. Default network adapter for the VMs. ipv6 enabled or disabled on underlying NIC and the vEthernet default switch (I tried both ways). 18.04 goes from "start" to X login in 11 seconds, including having to press through a console "error: no such device: root / press any key to continue" glitch. 19.10 goes from start to a Grub menu in about 3 seconds. 11 more seconds through console message about Spectre mitigation, then the Ubuntu splash screen of 5 dots on purple background, then console cursor holds for about 1:40. Then X login finally. System load during the long delay on network, disk, CPU under 5% during this time. Then suddenly a flurry of console messages followed by X login window. Seems very clear that the boot process is waiting for a long failed timeout somehow before proceeding. By accident I discovered the following with 19.10. Select "system startup" from the grub menu. Result is Windows logo screen "Hyper-V UEFI / No boot devices were found." The "restart" button is not functional, have to "power off" the VM because "shutdown" fails. Re-power on without closing the connection window, and 19.10 proceeds through same sequence from "start" to X login in about 12 seconds: spectre mitigation message on console, Ubuntu splash, console cursor, then possibly the flurry of console messages (but so fast invisible), then X login. I can get through the sequence above of grub "system startup" then power-off, then restart to the X login from scratch in 25 seconds, whereas about 120 seconds if I just start and wait through the timeout. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848534 Title: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1848534/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1848534] Re: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts
So let me summarize your findings on the same host of yours (I suppose
your VMs use the same config for the number of vCPUs and the memory
size. I also suppose you only tested Hyper-V Generation 2 VMs or you
confirmed Gen-1 vs. Gen-2 makes no difference):
("fast" means you can see the GUI desktop or the text terminal prompt in
about 1~2 seconds, and "slow" means you need a much longer time, e.g. 1
minute (?))
fresh Server 19.10 ==> fast
fresh Server 19.10 + the ubuntu-desktop package ==> slow
fresh Desktop 19.10 ==> slow
fresh Desktop 19.04 ==> fast
fresh Desktop 19.04 upgraded to 19.10 ==> slow
So it looks a change in 19.10 with the xorg causes the slowness.
However, I can not reproduce the issue, because both my fresh 19.10 and
19.04 VMs boot up in 20+ seconds and I never have a boot-up time of 1~2
seconds.
Hi M, can you please check this case:
fresh Desktop 19.04 upgraded to 19.10 ==> slow
What if you boot the VM with the 19.04 kernel + 19.10's userspace (including
Xorg)?
If it's also slow, then we have more confidence that the 19.04 Xorg has an
issue.
If it's fast, then the issue may be more likely that the interaction between
the 19.10 Xorg and the 19.10 kernel is causing the issue.
Can you also please try booting the VM with a "good" 19.04 VM but (ONLY)
upgrading the kernel to 19.10?
In the slow cases, can you check the logs files (/var/log/Xorg*,
/var/log/syslog*) and see if there is any obvious error/warning?

Hi, Thanks for comments #25 and #26, I don't know how fast is your machine, but on mine earlier (before 19.10) I had startup in just few seconds, now have this delay.

I've done sudo apt remove plymouth-theme-ubuntu-text sudo apt remove plymouth-theme-ubuntu-logo sudo apt remove lighttpd and removed splash from /etc/default/grub (yes, I can do it, this is not my critical VM) Result: kernel starts, I see messages, then screen cleans and I have delay systemd-analyze doesn't show anything specific (all delays are very short - the longest is gdm like yours and the rest looks quite similar) I don't know if this is Ubuntu or Hyper-V specific, other ideas? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848534 Title: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1848534/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1848534] Re: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts
I'm not sure what exact issues you're reporting. Your VM takes too much time to boot up? How long? "systemd-analyze blame" should collect the info for your VM. Your VM's screen is somehow messed up temporarily during the boot-up process? Or the boot-up process is stuck in the "text cursor" screen for a long period of time (about 1 minute?) and you'd like to figure out what's happening during that period of time? But since it looks your VM is able to boot up in 2 minutes or so (?), it looks there is no fatal issue? You're saying you can reproduce the issue with a fresh VM created from the .iso file (ubuntu-19.10-desktop-amd64.iso)? It would be helpful if you can share your output of the same commands I ran. A video of your VM's boot-up process would be helpful, if that's not difficult. I don't know how you would share the video. :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848534 Title: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1848534/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi M, I can not reproduce the issue: just now I downloaded http://dt0cinyuc0rrg.cloudfront.net/ubuntu-19.10-desktop-amd64.iso and created a Generation-2 VM on Hyper-V with the .iso file. The VM boots up fast: it boots up to the Xorg desktop in 28 seconds with 1 CPU and 2GB memory, and in 21 seconds with 8 CPUs and 8GB memory. I don't see anything unusual. I believe you're also using Generation-2 VM since your "lspci" returns nothing.
