[Bug 1829310] Re: kernel 5 fails to start systemd-networkd on old Dell Inspiron 1720
I had this same problem on a Dell Inspiron 6400, which has Broadcom BCM4311 network controller and Broadcom BCM4401-B0 Ethernet controller. Kernel 5.0.0-27 manifests the problem. Kernels 4.15.0-60 and 5.2.0-15 work fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1829310 Title: kernel 5 fails to start systemd-networkd on old Dell Inspiron 1720 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1829310/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1829310] Re: kernel 5 fails to start systemd-networkd on old Dell Inspiron 1720
a few weeks ago I have been able to build dkms nividia 340 kernel module for mainline build 5.1.16. Install NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.107 with kernel 5.0 and 5.1 patches from https://pkgs.rpmfusion.org/cgit/nonfree/nvidia-340xx-kmod.git/log/ (I had to fix one of the patches myself) with ubuntu's mainline kernel 5.1.16. I also had to extract the *custom.run to disable compiling of uvm (dkms.conf and Makefile). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1829310 Title: kernel 5 fails to start systemd-networkd on old Dell Inspiron 1720 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1829310/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Forgot to mention that the command lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 vga was the easiest way to see what display driver is running (nouveau or nvidia). Other commands found on the internet, didn't work on my laptop.

[Bug 1829310] Re: kernel 5 fails to start systemd-networkd on old Dell Inspiron 1720
Kai-Heng, I can confirm it is fixed in 5.1.15-050115-generic. However, I can not use 5.1.15 because with its linux-headers-5.1.15-050115-generic dkms can not build a module for nvidia-340 (see further below for the error output). I switched to nouveau and with that driver I could reach with 5.1.15 the desktop and see that all network functionality is ok. The nouveau driver is not as stable as nvidia's. But its biggest disadvantage is that after a while my old laptop is consumed with high cpu load from a process of systemd-udev or something. Thus I had to revert to kernel 4.18 and to nvidia driver. Please ask the kernel devs to make builds that can build dkms modules for nvidia-340. For anyone that stumbles on this bug report: I had a lot of trouble with kubuntu 19.04 to make nouveau working: First I tried Discover > Sources > Additional drivers: changing to nouveau does not do anything. Running from konsole "sudo software-properties-qt" shows that it can't change to nouveau. Someone, please make a bug for it (I currently have no time to dot it myself). Then I found out about KDE's systemsettings > Driver Manager: that functionality to change to nouveau works. Then the next hitch: booting then fails (for both 5.15 and 4.18): the boot message lines don't go further than systemd_user_sessions.service. In a second tty (ctrl-alt-F2) I tried the command startx and KDE plasma desktop got loaded. (without starting X you can't download and install packages with apt command as there is no wifi connection. Maybe a utp cable connection would have given internet access at the tty2.) Searching further to make it boot completely I found the command "sudo apt purge nvidia*". Then I was able to boot to the desktop without getting stuck at systemd_user_sessions.service. And this for both 5.1.15 and 4.18. Someone, please also make a bug for the fact that the graphical way to change to nouveau driver is useless without the purge nvidia* command! Alas, as already told, nouveau's quality is too low: after a while the cpu load goes up by a systemd-udev process. So to revert back to nvidia driver and kernel 4.18 the command "sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" does the trick. Here the error output for kernel 5.1.15 when dkms tries to build a module for nvidia-340: Building initial module for 5.1.15-050115-generic ERROR (dkms apport): kernel package linux-headers-5.1.15-050115-generic is not supported Error!
