[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1482711] Re: X displays nothing instead of login screen
And I just remembered that I have some logs from the newer failure that might help.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1482711] Re: X displays nothing instead of login screen
More information: I found that 352.63 also claimed to support my nvidia graphics card. I installed it. It made me reconfigure my xorg.conf. Putting "Intel" as the default driver allowed me to see the login screen. But whenever I entered the correct password, X would crash and send me back to the login screen (On several kernel versions including the then most recent one). I have somewhat worked around the problem by installing a blatantly incompatible nvidia driver and the machine behaves as if it only had the Intel graphics. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1482711 Title: X displays nothing instead of login screen Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The kernel version in the auto-generated information is wrong, because when using the kernel with the problem, I can't do anything, including send bug reports.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1482711] Re: X displays nothing instead of login screen
Just in case anyone's still listening. The most recent update, which included an nvidia driver update (340.96-0ubuntu0.14.04.1), pushed back the version of the latest kernel that worked. 3.13.0-58 no longer works. 57 gives bad resolution, I am testing 55, 32 still works.

And here I am realizing I should have said more.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1482711] Re: X displays nothing instead of login screen
I know I took a long time again. My primary observation is that this bug does not appear when the nvidia driver is not installed. I tested the upstream kernel version that matches the most recent repository kernel update(as well as the most recent upstream kernel version) before installing the most recent repository kernel update(3.13.11-031311ckt27 which the package manager calls 3.13.0-66.108). With both of the kernels from the upstream source, the nvidia module failed to install, and neither exhibited the bug, but when installed from the package manager the bug did occur in that same kernel version. Unfortunately I don't know how to make the nvidia driver install for the upstream kernels, if it is even possible, and thus cannot test them properly. This is complicated by the fact that this bug appeared when the package manager forced an update to the nvidia module from 331 which supports my video card to 340 which makes no such claim. Other than the nvidia driver not installing, the upstream kernels worked fine, though with a lot of warnings when I booted them, all about apparmor rules not being enforced. If you want, I ran a dmesg with each of them booted into a file, but I hesitate to post them, and thus pollute the associated data without your say so. Given this information I fully expect that the answer here is either, "go report this to ___ instead of here.", "Sorry but your hardware is not supported by the newer kernel versions. Have a nice day." or possibly a "Well, see if it happens with the repository kernels if you uninstall the ndivia drivers." (I made a half hearted attempt to do that even before I posted this bug, but I didn't figure out how to tell the package manager to uninstall all the nvidia drivers without trying to install some random other version.) Another thing that might provide some clues: some time ago I had installed the CUDA develpoment tools, and made a simple test program. On the version of the kernel for which the desktop works, that CUDA program will not run (it says that there is no device), however, when switched over to a virtual terminal from the blank screen caused by the bug, the program runs just fine. This tells me that perhaps the bug isn't occurring for this kernel version because the nvidia driver isn't working for it. So I hope this is somewhat useful even though technically the response is unable to test upstream. As per the instructions I will mark it as confirmed again. I hope that that is the right thing to do, even though I wasn't really able to test what you wanted well. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1482711 Title: X displays nothing instead of login screen Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The kernel version in the auto-generated information is wrong, because when using the kernel with the problem, I can't do anything, including send bug reports.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1482711] Re: X displays nothing instead of login screen
Nicholas, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the page from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D (the release names are irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily folder)? Install instructions are available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds . This will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. If the latest kernel did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this issue is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ Where X, Y, and Z are numbers corresponding to the kernel version. If the mainline kernel does not fix the issue, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of kernel-bug-exists-upstream. Once testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, please mark this report's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

I noticed that the backlight stays off when I get the blank screen. Unfortunately I cannot say whether or not this is new. I feel that it was the case before, and thus not new, but I never consciously noticed before. I then restarted in -58, which is still working so far as I can tell.

Sorry for the delay. I am still working up the nerve to update my BIOS. In the meantime, I thought it might be useful if I mentioned that the most recent set of updates I got broke this for kernel version 3.13.0-59 as well, I luckily still had -58 which is working. If you want me to tell you exactly which updates then I would appreciate a pointer to information on how to extract that information from the package manager. It was the updates from the last weekend. Downloaded sometime on Monday Sept 28 after not having internet since the Friday before (Sept 25).

Nicholas, as per http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (1.06). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1482711] Re: X displays nothing instead of login screen
Sorry I took so long. Trying to test the upstream kernel took some figuring out and I had to go on a trip. I could not get the upstream kernel to install the nvidia driver (or the kernel headers), without the nvidia driver (presumably using the Intel integrated graphics) it did give me a graphical login screen (So I may have tagged it incorrectly. I wasn't sure). I hope this is at least sort of useful. (even if only because it tells you to tell me that (and hopefully how) I need to go bother someone else.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1482711 Title: X displays nothing instead of login screen Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The kernel version in the auto-generated information is wrong, because when using the kernel with the problem, I can't do anything, including send bug reports.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream stable kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.13 stable 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.
