Incomplete I think is still the correct status here. Although this bug report has reminded us of some things we don't like about Mir, it hasn't yet shown that there is an underlying problem in Mir causing this particular bug. Unfortunately the log we're seeing from the snap looks kind of

There are two problems being discussed: /1/ mir doesn't work on the current Ubuntu snappy core kernel for Raspberry pi 2; and, /2/ Mir does not give good diagnostic information from our attempt at automaticity deciding on the right graphics stack. IMO systems that try a series of options (in

Even if we don't have the kernel support in place yet I think Mir could still do better. What the user sees is: Unknown command line options: --vt 1 What that means is: A non-mesa-kms graphics driver was chosen (or none at all? can't tell). And that's not even a bug at all if some working

sorry this happened off my timezone, but I can share with you that the RPi2/3 graphics are not quite ready yet. There is a patch set requiring integration into the ubuntu kernel that is maintained for RPi. There is work ongoing in the kernel team now to get these patches integrated, validated

OK in that case I can't tell what's going wrong. We'll need to look at (or ask the creator of) the snap itself. The bug can probably stay incomplete because there's not yet sufficient evidence that this is a bug in Mir at all. Perhaps just a bug in the snap definition. -- You received this bug

Please let us know what the "Selected driver" log message was. Or better yet, attach the full log output. A similar error was encountered in bug 1355005 and although that bug is unclear it seems to generally be a case of Mir selecting a driver other than mesa-kms, and if that happens then such

Thanks for pointing that out. So it's probably not a bug in the snap itself but a Mir bug. I have seen this happen before in other bug reports (spurious 'Unknown command line options: --vt 1' even when the mesa-kms driver is present), but will need to find those old bug reports... -- You
