1/2/3. I made a fresh install. On the first boot, device was blocked at the "Ubuntu" logo with the dots blinking white and orange forever. Pressing Esc wouldn't do anything (it's supposed to show the boot process) and pressing NumLock on the numpad wouldn't light the NumLock LED (it's my to-go check to see if the system froze or not).
I force-shutdown it, started again, this time it showed me the login screen, I logged in and it remained on a dark purple screen with a black mouse cursor for about 1-2 minutes before finally displaying the OOBE screen (where you have to press Next and select if you want to send anonymous report etc.). I then typed `journalctl -b-1 > prevboot.txt`, this is the file attached to this comment. Apologies as the locale is set to Chinese because my timezone is Taipei. ** Attachment added: "prevboot.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1822047/+attachment/5250111/+files/prevboot.txt -- 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/1822047 Title: After install, cannot boot into system unless I use nomodeset kernel parameter Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: System: Disco (19.04 beta) Hardware: Dell Precision 7530 After installing the system, it cannot start unless manually adding `nomodeset` in the kernel command line at boot time. Steps to reproduce: 1. Install disco 19.04 beta on the device. Leave all the options at default values (i.e. do not install third party drivers) 2. Once installation is finished, restart the system (the system will freeze after install is finished, it's a known issue -> lp:1822044) Expected result: 2. The system boots and user can log in and see Gnome interface. Actual result: 2. The first time, I could log into the system. However, when I tried to access the Settings screen, the system froze. After that, everytime I tried to boot the device, the screen was filled with dark purple, a mouse cursor may appear, but nothing else would happen. At that stage, the only thing I could do was to force shutdown the device, start it again and at Grub screen, press `e` to edit the kernel parameters and add `nomodeset`. This bug is created from the actual device, using `nomodeset` kernel parameter. `nouveau` graphics driver is most likely the culprit, like in all the previous issues that have been raised (see lp:1822026, lp:1822044, lp:1821882) Two workarounds exist: 1. After installation, use `nomodeset` kernel parameter to boot into the system, then install proprietary nvidia drivers. 2. During installation, install third party drivers. If Secure Boot is enabled, this requires to set a password that will be asked when the device reboots.
