[Bug 854967] Re: boot to rescue mode in Oneiric
Hi Steve, sorry for my late reply (I was at a sprint). I agree with your conclusions but I'd like to partially revert your changes. You removed a feature which allowed packagers to blacklist single card ids to prevent them from using the boot splash in case of nasty interactions with the NVIDIA driver. While the result is the same (i.e. the framebuffer is on by default), I restored the feature by putting back the relevant slave link which would simply point to a blacklist file that only shows how to disable nvidia cards (it's all commented out). ** Patch added: 0001-Restore-slave-link-to-grub-gfxpayload-file.patch https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer-updates/+bug/854967/+attachment/2534427/+files/0001-Restore-slave-link-to-grub-gfxpayload-file.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/854967 Title: boot to rescue mode in Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/854967/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 854967] Re: boot to rescue mode in Oneiric
Alberto, please revert these blacklists. Blacklisting the cards in grub causes a significant regression to the user experience when NOT booting in recovery mode - systems that had a perfectly working flicker-free boot from grub to plymouth even when using the binary nvidia drivers now have a text mode boot everywhere (bug #863719). We should *NOT* regress the standard boot experience in the last weeks before release to improve the recovery mode experience. I believe a better solution here is to adjust /etc/grub.d/10_linux to always pass =text instead of =keep for recovery mode. Half the time when you're booting to recovery mode you'll get this anyway because the previous boot didn't succeed, so having grub always do this will be more consistent - and handle possible problems with the video handoff across *all* video hardware. ** Changed in: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Triaged ** Changed in: fglrx-installer-updates (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Triaged ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-173 (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Triaged ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-173-updates (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Triaged ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-96 (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Triaged ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-96-updates (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Triaged ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Triaged ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/854967 Title: boot to rescue mode in Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/854967/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 854967] Re: boot to rescue mode in Oneiric
Also, note that this issue is NOT specific to binary drivers! I can reproduce the problem on a system with an intel video card when gfxpayload=keep. The issue is that during a normal boot, plymouth handles the transition from graphics mode to text mode for the VT (plymouth show-splash / hide-splash), but when booting into recovery mode, plymouthd is never run except for certain edge cases (i.e., when cryptsetup is installed and plymouth is started from the initramfs before friendly-recovery runs). So these blacklists definitely need to be reverted, and grub definitely needs to be changed to avoid use of =keep on recovery mode. ** Also affects: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = High ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Triaged ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Milestone: None = ubuntu-11.10 ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Steve Langasek (vorlon) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/854967 Title: boot to rescue mode in Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/854967/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 854967] Re: boot to rescue mode in Oneiric
Adding a task for each of the nvidia binary source packages. I'd suggest the gfxpayload blacklist shipped in each of these be updated to blacklist the nvidia chipsets (the blacklist currently shipped in these packages is empty). ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-173 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-173-updates (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-96 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-96-updates (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: friendly-recovery (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/854967 Title: boot to rescue mode in Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/friendly-recovery/+bug/854967/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

here rescue mode also is broken after installing kde-desktop (installed kubuntu boot logo) on an amd64 installation with ati hd 3200 graphics. I must admit that i did not use rescue mode for a while, maybe rescue mode was broken before but i suspect kubuntu :-; due to many other problems with kdm and akonadi. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/854967 Title: boot to rescue mode in Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/friendly-recovery/+bug/854967/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ah, ok, so the fact that you need to press enter before the boot sequence resumes actually tells me that friendly-recovery started properly. The first option in friendly-recovery is resume, so pressing enter selected it and the boot continued. Now the problem is why don't you actually see the menu...

your dpkg -l got cut off, almost half of it seems missing. Your grub.cfg looks good and contains what should be needed to trigger the recovery mode.
