This problem is *still* present several years later in 18.04.1. I first noticed that when I upgraded my Dell Latitude D830, the boot time was very slow and the screen resolution was wrong - I couldn't set it higher than 1280x1024 and thus the aspect ratio was wrong and and everything was fuzzy and stretched horizontally.
I didn't connect it to this problem until I decided to try reinstalling and I saw these errors when booting the live CD (which took so long that I just gave up!). As with others the workaround of video=SVIDEO-1:d does fix the problem. Has this been fixed upstream? Is anybody working on it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1685442 Title: Errors: flip_done timed out during boot-up; slow boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1685442/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
