There are no entries in the journal for those particular boots I'm afraid. That is, the journal is empty if I boot without "nomodeset" or without "amdgpu.ip_block_mask=0xfffffdff". There are some very quick boot messages appearing on the screen before it turns all black, but nothing in the log.
I rebooted several times to make sure it is not a random behaviour. I even tried "verbose debug" kernel boot parameters with no success. I packed all the logs from that particular date in case I analysed the situation wrong. What can I do now? ** Attachment added: "journal_AMD_A8-7680.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1920674/+attachment/5493224/+files/journal_AMD_A8-7680.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1920674 Title: AMD A8-7680 (amdgpu): broken Xorg acceleration and hibernation Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Dear developers, please let me thank you for all your hard work first of all, I'm a big fan of yours! On my desktop PC with AMD A8-7680 APU, I'm facing 2 problems which seem to be connected to the amdgpu kernel module: 1. Amdgpu kernel module loads correctly during boot, but VESA Xorg module is loaded instead of AMDGPU Xorg module during X startup. This results in non-accelerated X and high CPU load. - This situation is always reproducible. - I'm experiencing it with all kernel versions in between 5.4.0-47-generic and 5.4.0-67-generic inclusive. - The situation escalates more with newer kernel version. For 5.8.0-45-generic and 5.11.8-051108-generic, X even does not start and I just get black screen. - I have found a workaround after many days of googling and testing. AMDGPU Xorg module is loaded correctly if and only if I disable AMD ACP by means of the following kernel boot parameter: amdgpu.ip_block_mask=0xfffffdff - Acceleration is ok with kernels where AMD ACP is disabled by default (linux-image-linuxlite-5.6.0 for example) 2. The 2nd problem I'm facing is with non functioning hibernation after I "fixed" the X acceleration. Hibernation image does not seem to get created, screen goes black, PC freezes but never turns off whenever AMDGPU Xorg module is loaded. Hibernation and subsequent resume is all ok if I disable AMDGPU by means of "nomodeset" and go just with VESA module. - always reproducible but tested only with 5.4.0-67-generic Thank you and best regards, Radek ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: linux-image-5.4.0-67-generic 5.4.0-67.75 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-67.75-generic 5.4.94 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-67-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.16 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: radek 1513 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: radek 1513 F.... pulseaudio CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Sun Mar 21 15:22:29 2021 HibernationDevice: RESUME=/dev/disk/by-label/SSD_LinuxSwap IwConfig: lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions.
