This bug was about shim printing a warning about booting in insecure mode when SecureBoot was not enabled in your firmware. That is not why you are seeing this message. You are seeing this message because *you have configured your system to boot in insecure mode*, overriding SecureBoot in MOK, which is a prerequisite for newer kernels to load unsigned modules (such as the nvidia driver). If you are seeing this message on boot, *and* the nvidia driver is not loading for you, then there is a bug somewhere other than shim and you should file a new bug report about this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1384973 Title: shim prints "Booting in insecure mode" when booting without SecureBoot enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shim/+bug/1384973/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
