Public bug reported:
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.
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.
Workaround, UEFI-boot, kernel parameters :
nomodeset
nomodeset xforcevesa
Resolution without/with xforcevesa: 800x600 / 1600x900 – the optimal resolution
In 14.04 and 15.10 I installed fglrx – the AMD driver.
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 does'nt display the second graphic subsystem Topaz R7 as an apport
generated with nomodeset xforcevesa.
