No need to me-too, it's well known by now. This is actually a regression, since the 3.13 based kernel on 14.04 uses i915_bdw backport module for Broadwell, and it worked just fine with just the fallback framebuffer driver being available on the initrd. So if someone feels like doing a rough bisect, boot mainline kernel builds with 'nomodeset' boot option added starting from 3.14 and up, until it breaks.

After upgrading the boot time is longer (what is negligible) but the more severe error is, that I cannot enter my passphrase when I see the crypt dialog. I just see the dialog to enter my passphrase, but when I try to enter it, nothing appears in the textfield. I tried with the builtin laptop keyboard but also with an external USB keyboard. I thought about supplying more information, but things like the syslog are not helping apparently (I was not able to boot until the syslog would capture information...). If you need anything I can provide, I gladly help. [Test case] 1. On an affected system boot into kernel 3.19.0-30 [Solution] The "solution" for now is booting the older Kernel 3.19.0-28 (which isn't a real solution).
