[Bug 1574732] Re: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable
First of all, thank you for your fast response! It is amazing! Yes, there was a question about secure boot, but - just as other users who experienced the same problem - I was not aware about the significant change in the handling of secure boot and the consequences thereof. Formerly Ubuntu worked with secure boot enabled, hence I saw no reason to disable it. There was some explanation about 3rd-Party-modules on that dialog, yes, but because I do not use any other sources other than those provided by Ubuntu, I didn't feel concerned. Maybe the German translation is even more misleading (however I do not recall the exact wording of the dialog on upgrade), because the section in the control panel is called "Zusätzlich Treiber" and it mentions "Proprietäre Treiber" in the text in the control panel, but not 3rd Party Software, what I think was the term used on the upgrade dialog (though I am not quite sure about that). And since everything worked when I selected the older Kernel 4.2.0-35 I did not think about this at all any longer :-( and it took quite a while to figure out the reason of the problem... If those modules get signed automatically in the future, this will help a lot... Maybe meanwhile the Dialog on Upgrade could be made a little bit more clear about the problems and that those using nvidia drivers will not be able to log in after upgrade? I uninstalled nvidia, booted with secure boot enabled and installed nvidia again (using the control panel -> "Zusätzliche Treiber" = "additional drivers"), but there was no message about secure boot there. After reboot I couldn't log in again as expected. For me it is ok now that I know the reason. But I think a lot of people might run into severe troubles... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574732 Title: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/shim/+bug/1574732/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for this description.

[Bug 1574732] Re: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable
The problem seems to be due to uefi secure boot option now checking also the keys of modules, which the nvidia driver obviously does not provide. Disabling secure boot solved the problem for me, but completely disabling it just because there is no signature for the nvidia driver seems to be a really bad option! Shouldn't there be an option to install signatures for third party drivers, that are supported (nvidia, virtualbox etc)?

I just upgraded to 16.04 and can't log in any longer with the latest (default) kernel 4.4.0-21. If i select an older kernel (4.2.0-35) everything works fine. Trying to load nvidia drivers manually say something like 'required key missing' (i would have to reboot with the latest kernel to see the exact wording however). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574732 Title: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1574732/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1174429] Re: error: unknown type name ”u_int8_t” when building
Hallo, probably i am totally wrong here, but i had some unexpected behaviour when installing these packages from proposed. Background: i am suffering from Bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1169984, ie. there was no hdmi output available. For this reason i installed the new proposed kernel in proposed, that should fix it. I also installed the proposed alsa-packages, as i was not sure, whether they would be necessary too. HDMI worked then as expected, but after some time - always listening to internet radio - the x-window-system froze: The mouse did no longer respond nor most of the keyboard commands. The internet radio however continued playing. The only things i could do in this state were: - terminate the X-Server using Ctrl-Alt-Backspace and then logging in again. - switching to console and back (logging into my user account in the text console even brought the internet radio back!) This happened to me several times. Today i reinstalled the "old" packages manually and it did not happen again (for now). There was absolutely nothing relevant in syslog, kern.log and Xorg.0.log. Hope, it's not too confusing... Once again, probably the failures were just a coincidence and not really related to those updates. But how can we know? Maybe the combination of HDMI-Output with the newest proposed kernel and these new alsa-lib's should be tested by other users? I listened to internet radio (http://gffstream.ic.llnwd.net/stream/gffstream_w13b) using vlc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1174429 Title: error: unknown type name ”u_int8_t” when building To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-lib/+bug/1174429/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
