a little digging and plymouth is supposed to work with drm modesetting drivers which means i915 has to be loaded for it to work .. so not seeing it means ..some hardware detection has failed .. is that part of plymouth or something else?
since it works on the upgraded install on sda1 I suspect a config file change relating to hardware detection and "autoload" by systemd .. i'm not familiar with that magic .. I only know that manual override via /etc/modules etc. is possible.. not required on sda1 I noticed that issues with xorg function started arround march 16, 2019 .. first bug report ..missing xorg-server install .. #1820430 .. march 8, 2019 iso was okay as far as i can remember .. unfortunately .. those dailys are bit vapor so no way to re test .. unless i can re-download .. is there an archive? I haven't looked. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1821609 Title: lightdm login screen briefly appears and then blanks out on Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5870 - failure to load i915 kernel module To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1821609/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
