Same as Uladzimir Pasvistselik too: "it was not a full system freeze, but inability to enter characters from keyboard (from both laptop one, and an external keyboard attached via USB)". With 6.8.0-51.
My workaround is to boot using 6.8.0-48 or 6.8.0-51 rescue, which prevent Plymouth from being launched (and therefore, I type my password using command line). New information: - ctrl+alt+delete works! Which means the keyboard is kind of working... I tried lots of inputs. Only this succeeded. - Just after the ctrl+alt+delete being pressed, and just before the system being rebooted (that's 1 second), I could see the keypad used (for me, "Ca") displayed on the screen, as usual (when the keyboard input works). -- 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/2091753 Title: Plymouth fails with kernel 6.8.0-50 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Plymouth fails to fully boot with this kernel when asking for encryption password for local partition. The system freezes and can be recovered in rescue mode. Previous kernels accepted the password and continued to X as expected. Remove 'splash' from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet" prevents plymouth from loading and booting continues to X after password is entered in when booting pauses and asks for the password in the terminal. This behaviour is true on laptops running Linux Mint (Wilma) and Ubuntu KDE 24.04 with encrypted partitions. On devices without encrypted partitions 'quiet splash' is included on the kernel command line and booting proceeds as expected.
