[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1598935] Re: Ubuntu 16.04 won't properly boot due to radeon module issue

2016-10-14 Thread Tomdkat
I have great news! The system is now booting properly! No more 20 minute wait to login! I noticed it with the update to the 4.4.0-42 kernel. So, this issue might have been fixed with either that kernel update or the previous, 4.4.0-38 kernel update. In any event, this is no longer an issue and

Tomdkat, this is your report, so it's your call. As far as I can tell, waiting 30 minutes seems an awfully lot to wait, even if you are patient enough, and don't reboot often. Hence, to pursue this further, you would want to perform the test requested in

Ok, I have another update. I managed to get SSH setup and was able to save some XOrg and dmesg logs. However, I think this bug report can be closed. Why? Because, I'm able to get full resolution video with the 4.4 kernel. This is what I've found: if I boot my Ubuntu 16.04.1 system normally,

Ok, I _finally_ have an update on this. I put another hard drive into the system, booted an Ubuntu 16.04.1 live DVD I burned today, and installed Ubuntu 16.04.1 on this test hard drive. When I booted the live DVD, the video issue occurred, so I re-booted and specified the "nomodeset" parameter.

Thanks for the reply. With regard to SSH, I have access to only one system, the system on which I'm booting the live DVD. Ubuntu 14.04.2 is installed on the system and works just fine. So, I would prefer *not* touching this installation. I wanted to try the 16.04 live DVD to see if there might

Thanks for the reply. Well, if I'm not getting any video I'm not sure how I could get SSH setup but I do have something interesting to report. When I boot the live DVD, leave the "set gfxpayload=keep" setting alone, and remove "quiet splash" from the kernel parameters, I can get the system to

Tomdkat, to advise, posting with nomodeset makes the log useless. You can try setting up SSH, so that when it boots up, even though the video is off, you may copy the log from the running machine. ** Attachment removed: "dmesg output"

Ok, attached is the output from "dmesg" after I booted from the Ubuntu 16.04 live DVD. Per the instructions here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelBoot I changed "set gfxpayload=keep" to "set gfxpayload=text" After doing that, the wireless network adapter didn't work. Previously, the

I'll also attach the Xorg log from the system booted *without* "nomodeset" specified. I'll boot again with "set gfxpayload=text" specified and will post the logs. Thanks! ** Attachment added: "Xorg log without "nomodeset" specified"

Ok, this time, I have the live DVD booted with gfxpayload=text, "quiet splash" not specified, and "nomodeset" *not* specified. Once the optical drive stopped making noise, I pressed Ctrl-ALt-F1 and my monitor immediately got a signal. I then pressed Ctrl-Alt-F7 and got to the desktop. I'll

Tomdkat, I want to make sure you understand what you just said: >"Well, if I'm not getting any video I'm not sure how I could get SSH setup..." What is obvious is since you have a WORKAROUND, you engage it, setup SSH, reboot without the WORKAROUND, and then capture the logs. I'm not sure where
