On a similar Asus netbook (with an Intel Atom x5-Z8300) I find that Ubuntu 19.10 boots perfectly from USB. Oddly, 20.04 does not. With 20.04 I experience a blank screen more like this bug. To get around it I just avoided the live session. At the 20.04 boot menu, choose 'Install Ubuntu (safe graphics)'. Then it installs and boots successfully (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20200124/).
So I have the feeling this is close to being fixed in some future live session of 20.04. I wouldn't worry about 19.10 for too long because it will reach end-of-life in July (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases). I suggest the next step in this bug is for you to follow comment #10 and try 20.04 for yourself. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Changed in: mesa (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1860754 Title: ASUS T100HAN boots to a blank screen with a cursor [i965: Failed to submit batchbuffer: Input/output error] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1860754/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
