I have installed Windows 11 and Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS. Both systems work
properly. Switching from Ubuntu to Windows is no problem. But when
switching from Windows to Ubuntu the boot process stops. The splash
screen shows 'UBUNTU' and a spinning wheel, that stops spinning. After
switching the computer off and on again Ubuntu boots without problems.
Here my system details:
## Hardware Information:
- **Hardware Model:** Gigabyte Technology Co.,
Ltd. B760 DS3H DDR4
- **Memory:** 16,0 GiB
- **Processor:** 12th Gen Intel® Core™
i5-12400F × 12
- **Graphics:** NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 4070
- **Disk Capacity:** 3,3 TB
## Software Information:
- **Firmware Version:** F8b
- **OS Name:** Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS
- **OS Build:** (null)
- **OS Type:** 64-bit
- **GNOME Version:** 46
- **Windowing System:** X11
- **Kernel Version:** Linux 6.8.0-90-generic
What I found about this issue is that it is related to the GPU being
left in bad power state by Windows. They recommended to disable Windows
Fast Startup (powercfg.cpl → Choose what the power buttons do → Change
settings that are currently unavailable → uncheck "Turn on fast
startup). But this didn’t solve the problem.
To find out what’s going wrong I switched to verbose boot: in GRUB menu
I selected UBUNTU, pressed „e“ and removed ‚quiet splash‘ in the line
starting with ‚linux‘, then Ctrl+X. By this I found out the boot process
stops right after "Started nvidia-persistenced.service - NVIDIA
Persitance Deamon.". According to my findings this is a known NVIDIA +
systemd boot deadlock after a Windows boot and on RTX 40-series. The
system does not crash — it waits forever for NVIDIA userspace ↔ kernel
GPU initialization.
Can you help me to fix this issue?
