FFab, in order to allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue, at your earliest convenience, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D ? Please keep in mind the following: 1) The one to test is at the very top line at the top of the page (not the daily folder). 2) The release names are irrelevant. 3) The folder time stamps aren't indicative of when the kernel actually was released upstream. 4) Install instructions are available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds .
If testing on your main install would be inconvenient, one may: 1) Install Ubuntu to a different partition and then test this there. 2) Backup, or clone the primary install. If the latest kernel did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this issue is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ Where X, and Y are the first two numbers of the kernel version, and Z is the release candidate number if it exists. If the mainline kernel does not fix the issue, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of kernel-bug-exists-upstream. Also, you don't need to apport-collect further unless specifically requested to do so. It is most helpful that after testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, you mark this report Status Confirmed. Lastly, to keep this issue relevant to upstream, please continue to test the latest mainline kernel as it becomes available. Thank you for your help. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1639517 Title: [HP Pavilion Notebook - 17-g164ng] black screen when booting Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When booting the screen is black – backlight on – off - on. When HDD is inactive - keyboard is not locked and I can shutdown/reboot by Alt + Print +o/b or Strg + Alt + Del - remote access e.g. using ssh is possible Testsystems: Ubuntu/Kubuntu 14.04, 15.10, 16.04, 16.10. My notebook is a HP Pavilion 17-g164ng with an AMD A10-8780P APU and 2 graphic subsystems - Carrizo, a VGA compatible controller and Topaz. It seems very similar to that described in #1597079. The bug report was generated from a remote PC. My HP notebook was started without any workaround parameters. This apport doesn't display the second graphic subsystem Topaz R7 as an apport generated with nomodeset xforcevesa. WORKAROUND: In 14.04 and 15.10 I installed fglrx – the AMD driver. WORKAROUND: When booting in UEFI mode, use kernel parameters: nomodeset or: nomodeset xforcevesa Resolution without xforcevesa: 800x600 Resolution with xforcevesa: 1600x900 – the optimal resolution ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+13ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-45.66-generic 4.4.21 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-45-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: None Date: Sat Nov 5 23:40:19 2016 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: xenial DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: I just need to know a workaround GraphicsCard: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
