BTW, my Linux kernel version is 5.3.0-46-generic #38-Ubuntu (17:37:05, 3/27/2020).
The "graphic artifact" is somehow caused by the "$vt_hanoff" kernel parameter (check "cat /proc/cmdline"). If I manually remove the "$vt_hanoff" at the grub screen, I won't see the "graphic artifact" -- Ubuntu guys should take a look and fix the issue, as I'm not familiar with "vt_handoff". @msgallery: I never see the "1:40" (1 minutes and 40 seconds) delay reported in comment #40. Maybe you can use "systemd-analyze critical- chain" (mentioned in Comment #25) to figure out why the delay happened. To recap, my experience with the fresh Desktop installation of Ubuntu 19.10 (Gen-2 VM) on Hyper-V is good, except for the minor "graphic artifact" issue. I don't see any long delay. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848534 Title: [Microsoft Hyper-V guest] System shows graphic artifacts for a moment, then text cursor for about minute and then starts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1848534/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
