[Bug 1642078] Re: Black screen at startup on Carrizo

2018-03-13 Thread victor gaspar
Hi Christopher,

1) This one was hard... I needed a magnifying glass to get the info:
HP Pavilion Notebook PC
ProdID: V7R89LA#ABM
Model 14-av005Ia

2) Update done using command:
   sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-16.04 
xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04
Same results, black screen. In fact, after the update, it never starts 
correctly again :S

3) I tried with the four options. None worked.

victor gaspar, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better.

1) Could you please provide the full computer model as noted on the
sticker of the computer itself (not from the Bug Description, or the
result of a terminal command)?

2) To see if this is resolved in your release, could you please update
your HWE stack as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
and advise to the results?

3) Could you please advise if any one (not in combination) of the following 
kernel parameters allow you to boot:
nomodeset
radeon.dpm=0
radeon.bapm=0
radeon.bapm=1

[Bug 1642078] Re: Black screen at startup on Carrizo

2017-03-11 Thread victor gaspar
Sorry Evren, my only issue is with this 'blank screen' error. HD speed
tested with HDPARM and it looks fine. Also did not notice any problem
with keyboard, or touchpad. WiFi installation was smooth. Current
version of the kernel is 4.4.0-66-generic. Updating did not get things
worse. Nor better in the case of the black screen bug.

I read your posts on bug #1616830, and let's hope AMD and Canonical work
towards a solution together.

Regards,
V.

[Bug 1642078] Re: Black screen at startup on Carrizo

2017-03-06 Thread Evren Yurtesen
Are you sure the black screens are your only problem?

I have problems with keyboard missing keypresses, touchpad doing strange
stuff, hard drive performance, random crashes and caps-lock blinks, wifi
required driver from github and manual setting of antenna. I ran
sysbench and disk was performing at about 1.3mb/s speed only! There was
at least 1 other person who wrote to my bug report that he was having
the same problems.

With 4.8 hwe kernel, it does not even boot anymore. Looking at all the
bug reports, the problems seem to be only getting worse and worse with
updates. It is almost like linux is trying to irradicate AMD machines...

Here is my bug report for the hard drive performance, are you able to replicate 
it?
