I noticed that someone mentioned the need for using 915resolution on Intel GPUs. However, I managed to get the solution working without 915resolution, using the Intel GMA965 GPU on a Lenovo Y410. What I did was this: 1. Install v86d 2. Add /etc/modprobe.d/uvesafb containing this line: options uvesafb mode_option=1280x800-32 mtrr=3 scroll=ywrap 3. sudo depmod -a 4. sudo update-initramfs -u 5. Restart.
Something I noticed was that when either starting or resuming from hibernation from a cold boot, I get artefacts when usplash starts, then booting stalls, presumably because I didn't see the cryptsetup prompt and didn't key in the encryption key. However, if I try starting again (Alt+SysRq+B), then usplash works. -- Switched from vesafb to uvesafb, but uvesafb can't work without v86d https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246269 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
