[Bug 1829402] Re: Purple screen hangup during boot

2019-05-16 Thread Jackneill
I should add that it was/seemed quite non-deterministic.
kernel args (only nomodeset) which seemed to work sometimes did not.

To edit kernel args, i went to bios to escape so as to get grub.

[Bug 1829402] [NEW] Purple screen hangup during boot

2019-05-16 Thread Jackneill
Public bug reported:

Specs:
Ubuntu 19.04 fresh install, everything updated
Firmware is latest (Bios version 300)
Asus vivobook s14 
LVM disk encryption

Steps to reproduce:
- Install ubuntu 19.04/18.10
- Reboot
- Purple screen indefinitely

Setting kernel cmdline args only to ro nomodeset seems solves it.

After some debugging session with #ubuntu with different cmdline args,
it seems now the default one works too. I have not edited anything, but
now i am unable to reproduce it.

Pressing ESC or F1 does nothing in the hanging purple screen. (I now got
the error again.)

Editing the grub "ubuntu" menu entry to ro nomodeset did nothing,
altough doing the same for a recovery entry did the job of getting to
boot properly.

I should probably add that i installed guix (the distro) for a brief
moment, and it rebooted correctly. Everything with guix was successful,
altough as I remember it was not more than 1-2 reboots, and maybe a
power off, and start.

>1. Does the problem occur if the system is completely powered off
between reboots (as opposed to what >is called a 'warm' reboot) ?

Yes.


>2. Can 'journalctl --list-boots' be used to identify logs of a *failed* boot 
>and use 'journalctl -b X' to grab the log file of the failed boot?

Yes.

boot -1: (cold powered off state, been powered off for some hours)
This was a successful boot without doing anything.

boot 0: (powered off by long press power button, get to bios, esc to get grub, 
edit a recovery menu entry, delete 'recovery' add 'nomodeset', to be able to 
boot)

>3. has 'GRUB_TERMINAL=console' in /etc/default/grub been tried (edit
file to include that string without a leading # [comment prefix] then
"sudo update-grub" and reboot to test)

When I have a successful boot 2 error lines appear for a brief moment
then everything proceeds.

When I get the hanging screen (this time black) i can read those lines:

`
error: no video mode activated.
error: can't find command `hwmatch`.

Adding "earlyprintk=efi,keep" to the command line only gives me 1 line:

'Memory KASLR using RDRAND RDTSC...'

If its quite low res, only this line, if i also get 'error: can't find
command `hwmatch` then its a bit more high-res.
