> According to the answer of this question, "fwupd scans for all dpaux devices and probes them". Hence there might be no plugin that I could disable to bypass this bug.
That's correct. > Unfortunately, no. The ASUS TUF Gaming laptop may need it to run the display. I suspect that because long ago the nvidia hardware got reset and the system could not recover from that cleanly. The result was a computer with dead screen but system that was still alive. If I remove nouveau and my screen gets disabled, I would have very hard time getting back on track as I don't have another computer I could use to download an Ubuntu Live CD, burn it to an USB, boot this computer and then fix the configuration to make it bootable. That's a bit unusual for an A+N design. The APU usually drives the eDP panel. Sometimes there is a mux that lets you change it to the discrete GPU dynamically, but the default position is still supposed to be APU. Rather than making a permanent change; how about if you just turn on the GRUB menu and change it on your kernel command line for one boot? Even if it doesn't boot up and has a black screen as you're worried about you can reboot the machine and the journal from the previous boot will show if this issue occurred or not. I strongly feel this is a bug in nouveau that isn't fixed in the kernel you're running. Another option is to try the OEM-6.11 or HWE-6.11 kernels instead. You can install them side-by-side and configure GRUB to let you pick one at bootup. Then you can see if it happens on the newer kernel or not. -- 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/2098668 Title: nouveau crashes when fwupd requests DPCD reads on drm_dp_auxN Status in fwupd package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I was reviewing logs while trying to find evidence of an unrelated issue (which turned out to be related, it is a nouveau driver crashing on DPCD requests, see the comments below) and found that fwupd.service fails to start due to a timeout.
