Public bug reported: Last night, Ubuntu Software Updater installed a round of updates. I shut down my computer, and when I booted this morning, the GUI failed to load or run at all. I switched to a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+F1, which worked fine. I tried rebooting into 3.13.0-91 via GRUB, at which point the GUI worked fine. Examining Ubuntu Software Center History, the new linux-image stood out, so I tried uninstalling that first. The command I ran was: sudo apt-get remove linux-image-extra-3.13.0-92-generic:amd64 linux-image-3.13.0-92-generic:amd64 linux-signed-image-3.13.0-92-generic:amd64 && sudo apt-get install linux-image-extra-3.13.0-91-generic:amd64 linux-image-3.13.0-91-generic:amd64 linux-signed-image-3.13.0-91-generic:amd64 My machine works fine now (with the old linux-image), but I thought I should inform you of the problem with the new linux-image.
P.S. Since xorg is involved I tried to use ubuntu-bug xorg as the instructions said, but there was no way to enter an explanation, and reporting system information with no explanation *now* when my system is *working* would be completely misleading. There seems to be no way to attach any text or message to an ubuntu-bug report. I have attached the output from apport-bug --save=bugfilename linux-image-3.13.0-92-generic:amd64. ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: regression-update ** Attachment added: "bugfilename" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1603655/+attachment/4702048/+files/bugfilename -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1603655 Title: After update, xorg will not boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1603655/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
