I just tested upgrading to 18.04 and newest stable 4.15.0-19 does not
boot with default parameters.

Has anyone tested 4.15 stable to see if it has resolved the issues for
XPS 15 9560?

Re: [Bug 1718936] Re: Can't boot Artful 17.10 live images on XPS 15 (9560)

[Anmar Oueja]

link textThe soln to this is to turn the nouveau driver modesettings and
leave things up to the Intel board.

To do that, you need to edit the /etc/default/grub and add
nouveau.modeset=0 to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX

so it looks like this: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nouveau.modeset=0"

Once done, just run update-grub to update and reboot.

Good luck!

[Anmar Oueja]

The fix is easy enough. here is what you need to do.

== Booting a live image
* Enter the boot prompts by presseing Esc
* Edit the boot prompt and append nouveau.modeset=0 to the linux boot command 
line 

== Once installed, you need to do the following:
* Log into the system, assuming it work, if not, do the steps outlined above.
* edit /etc/default/grub file and locate the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX= line
* add nouveau.modeset=0 to it
* it should look like this: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nouveau.modeset=0"
* Save the file
* run sudo update-grub 
* Reboot and enjoy

I also cannot boot 17.10 live USB to be able to install it.

I receive a few USB port errors followed by the same:

these kinds of error messages come across:

This issue appears to still be hanging on boot for Dell XPS 15 (9560).

Have we identified any reliable and easy workarounds to get the USB live
image booting? I was looking forward to completing my dual boot install
this weekend.

Thanks!

It's easier to identify the regression on mainline kernel. You only need
to from 4.13-rc1, and find which -rcN is the first one that regressed.

[Bug 1718936] Re: Can't boot Artful 17.10 live images on XPS 15 (9560)

[Anmar Oueja]

I have done some more testing and here are my findings:

* 4.12.14 works like a charm with nothing extra added to the command boot option
* 4.13.16 doens't boot and operate normally without nouveau.modeset=0 . The 
same go for 4.14-rc4

With nouveau.modeset=0, I can use the kernels that ship with 17.10 while
booting from USB stick, installing and normal use even if an external
monitor was plugged into the XPS 15.

Obviously something regressed but I can't tell what it is.

Please add kernel parameter "drm.debug=0x0e" and boot with the drm-tip
kernel. Attach the dmesg here.

If it hangs during boot process, you probably need to remove "quiet
splash" in grub.

This bug shouldn't be fixed-released. Nothing got fixed. The live image
doesn't boot without the nouveau modeset kernel boot option. It
shouldn't be fixed until the live image boots without any tinkering.

I just tested the "blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nouveau" and the
"nouveau.modeset=0" separately and both of them the machine booted off
the USB stick. I had a live image running 4.12 kernel so I will test
today's images (with 4.13 kernel) and report back.

Here is  my dmidecode just in case anybody wants to confirm the type of
machine I am testing on especially that some of you couldn't boot it
with the above modeset mods to the kernel boot prompt.

I was going to add that it should run on Intel by default. I updated the
image to the latest on the USB and tried again and it still hangs even
with the kernel parameters. "blacklist=nouveau
modprobe.blacklist=nouveau" It worked for you Anmar?

Cause I cannot get that to work here. Also this issue is set to "Fix
Released" What fix is that?

It's driven by intel graphics all the time. Nouveau is the part that has
more chance to hang the system.

I did that with yesterday's Ubuntu 17.10 live image and it did boot.

Q: Does that mean the acceleration is done by the Intel board instead?

[Bug 1718936] Re: Can't boot Artful 17.10 live images on XPS 15 (9560)

[Hlini Melsteð Jóngeirsson]

I have the exact same laptop and have not been able to start 17.10 here
in simple testing with daily images for months. I don't think I have
been able to do so with any 17.10 image. I installed the 4.13.3 Kernel
and on my 17.04 install on the computer and it started up and is running
now as I type this. There were quite some errors when installing regards
to missing firmware but it starts at least.

[Bug 1718936] Re: Can't boot Artful 17.10 live images on XPS 15 (9560)

[Bryan Quigley]

Thanks for trying,  not so easy to debug on a live session. Lets see if
we can reproduce it locally.

I'm hoping you are running Ubuntu locally (which version?), if so could you try 
to see if you can reproduce the problem using a mainline kernel build of 4.13 - 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.13.3/ seems like a good first 
try)
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds

This would just install the kernel and should make it easier to bisect
the issue.

If v4.13.3 doesn't cause the issue, try v4.13-rc7, otherwise we can be
relatively sure it's not a kernel issue (or at least not just a kernel
issue)

If v4.13.3 doe cause the issue, try v4.14-rc1 to see if it's fixed in a newer 
release. 
Then try v4.12.14 to see if it was present in 4.12, if it wasn't we want to try 
maybe v4.13-rc3/.
If it is present in v4.12.14 then we want to try maybe v4.12-rc5/.

Ideally we'd work it down to exactly where it was introduced - and then
maybe do Git bisects.

Probably a nouveau bug?
Add "blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nouveau" to your kernel parameter.

I removed the "splash ---" from the boot command option and still didn't
boot up. I got more error messages so please attached photon.

I'm curious if it works if you just remove the splash line from the
command line (press F6 when booting).

I had the same issue and for me a workaround was to edit kernel boot
parameters. I added "nomodeset" parameter.

the live CD from Sep 21, 2017
