stranger and stranger .. if you install kernel 5.0.0-8.9 at the first boot into any new install partition before changing any thing else .. it does not fix the issue .. once you return sda1 to being grub master .. neither sda7 nor sda6 will keep lightdm running ..both briefly flash lightdm login screen and then blank out screen , briefly showing a cursor .. a long hold down of power button does eventually powerdown machine .. note: can't even get to consoles .. not a nice fail.
note resetting grub back to the "new install version" works but there is a stutter in lightdm .. it shows briefly blanks for 2 seconds then shows again and and you can login.. only other way into partition is through recovery boot option, or via a chroot. this is now using xubuntu-am64-desktop.iso -beta version ( two installs sda6 and sda7 ) I'm beginning to think that using a chroot to reinstall/or update the kernel might be a "work around only" for the issue .. as a native update does not work .. I'm going to test this further .. replace sda6 and sda7 sequentially and see what happens using chroots for updates more later .. any ideas what else to look for or check? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1821609 Title: lightdm login screen briefly appears and then blanks out on Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5870 Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Okay the has happened recently at least since march 18, 2019 iso and march 22, 2019 iso are both effected very similar to one of my previously reported bugs .. which was related to xorg not being installed .. back ground .. PC is lenovo sl 500 with evo860 SSD drive 3 partions contain installs of disco sda1 -- main working system -- I usually install grub from here as master .. sda6 and sda7 are test installs of disco daily iso's 03-18-2019, 03-22-2019 repectively on the test installs as long as the iso is using the grub boot loader installed from that install the system will boot normally .. the display manger tends to flicker on and off but does final start and login can proceed. but if another install re-installs grub as master the display manager fails to stay active or even come-up for sda6 or sda7 only if their own grubs are reinstalled will they work normally sda1 display manager/xorg login works always no matter which "grub- source" is in control. if I use rescue boot from any grub as master I can get the displays to work by running dpkg fix which does nothing .. and then resuming the boot .. then things work normally.. if the "non-rescue" boots are used the screen/computer locks and only a power down and reboot gives access.
