[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1876741] Re: Lenovo X1 boot crash with HDMI cable attached and laptop lid closed
Hi Maria, I don't think your issue is the same I got. Note that my problem happened with or without the dock, and I wasn't even reaching grub. That's the big difference here. If you lose the video after grub, than your problem is elsewhere, and my suggestion is to boot without "quiet splash" on the grup command line, so that you can see where the boot is stuck. If it reaches the end of the boot process and it is just unable to start X (so GDM, LightDM or whatever), then your problem might be related to the drivers, maybe not blacklisting nouveau or things like these. Maybe as suggested elsewhere [1], you just need to uninstall the buggy xserver-xorg-video-intel package. What is more important here is that my problem got solved by setting the "Set Optimized" option in the BIOS to true. This solved a huge amount of problems, the last one I'm waiting to solve before closing this bug is to understand how to boot without a customized /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Hope this helps.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1876741] Re: Lenovo X1 boot crash with HDMI cable attached and laptop lid closed
Hi there, I wanted to add that I've tried the Thunderbolt dock and everything seems to be working as expected, even if there's a lot more of fan noise while the laptop is attached to the dock (maybe I'll open a specific bug on this issue). For this bug I don't think there's only one thing to clarify before closing it, and it is the one related to the Xorg configuration. Since out-of-the-box I was not able to have an X session working unless using the manual Xorg configuration described in the previous comment. Is there any advice on this? It is just the way it should be? Once we clarify this I think we can safely close this bug.

Hey AaronMa, What do you mean with "found that LID close until the BIOS logo show, unless the laptop will shut down."?

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1876741] Re: Lenovo X1 boot crash with HDMI cable attached and laptop lid closed
Just a follow up with my investigations in the issue, that might be useful for users in a similar situation. The problem related to grub not loading and fans lifting with no tomorrow is related to Thunderbolt. If I leave any kind of device (network adapter, webcam, whatever) attached to any of the two Thunderbolt ports, then any kind of boot (or reboot) will likely fail like I described above. While looking for solutions, I got into the certification page of my laptop [1] and saw that it says: "This system was tested with 18.04 LTS, running the 4.15.0-1059-oem kernel." Now, this kernel is not present in 20.04, but I've installed 5.6.0-1008-oem and despite of the certification, nothing changes at all. So, the state of things right now: - If I want to be sure the system will load grub, then nothing should be connected to the Thunderbolt port; - If I want to use HDMI output I MUST set "Discrete" (and not "Hybrid") in the BIOS for the display adapter; - If I want GDM/LightDM/Whatsoever to be loaded than the laptop lid should be left open until the end of the boot process, otherwise a blank screen with a single cursor (and a concert of fans) will be the only thing you'll have; Note that this counts for ANY kind of Thunderbolt setting I set inside the BIOS, so likely to be a Grub/EFI compatibility issue, but I have no more clue for now. With this kind of problems I think that writing this laptop is certified by Ubuntu seems ridiculous. I'm available for any kind of suggestions/proposal you have.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1876741] [NEW] Lenovo X1 boot crash with HDMI cable attached and laptop lid closed
Public bug reported: Hey everyone, just upgraded to 20.04 in my Lenovo X1 Carbon laptop and found myself in really big troubles. I always started my laptop pressing the power button and then closing the laptop lid, because I'm using an external HDMI display. This worked always well with Ubuntu 19.10. With 20.04 the system crash. These are the actions that reproduce the problem: 1 - Boot the system, pressing the power button and closing the laptop lid with an external HDMI display attached to the laptop; 2 - See on the external HDMI display the boot progress: BIOS loading and then grub not appearing; 3 - Listen to the fans that are about to make the laptop lift; 4 - Press the power button to force off the laptop; At this point the only way to have everything back is: 1 - Detach any external device; 2 - Detach the power cable; 3 - Wait 3 seconds or more; 4 - Open the laptop lid; 5 - Attach the power cable; 6 - Press the power button; Without doing exactly as I written the laptop will not boot up, even if I force power off, after starting it again, after the BIOS display, the screen goes blank and the fans lift.
