Thank you very much. I think I can live with the first option. I'll look more into the implications, but it seems to be better than not having the process running at all.
Not sure if I need to do anything to close this. > 1. Blacklist synapticsmst plugin in fwupd in /etc/fwupd/daemon.conf This seems to help. I reinstalled the fwupd package and added synapticsmst to the blacklist. Now I get responses back from the fwupdmgr command. It also responds to systemctl start/stop. > 2. Try a newer kernel (like 5.x) 19.04 is running 5.0. $ uname -rmv 5.0.0-13-generic #14-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 15 14:59:14 UTC 2019 x86_64 > 3. Backport that patch from fwupd I tried pulling the repo and building the latest 1.2.8 tag, but I didn't make it very far into the build. I'm not very familiar with ninja, so I'll have to see if I can figure out why it's failing. If I get it all the way through, I'll see if this works without the blacklisting. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1826691 Title: fwupd hangs after 19.04 upgrade from 18.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwupd/+bug/1826691/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
