Nicolas Jungers: >"Christopher Penalver, I've now tested the 4.8-rc5. Unsurprisingly the result is the same than for 4.8-rc4. Do you think that testing each new kernel version one after the other is a path to a solution? It feels more like a path to madness to me."
Testing the latest mainline kernel keeps your bug relevant to upstream (the folks who would provide a fix). >"To recap, 14.04 with kernel 3.13 *was* working and both 14.10 (with kernel 3.16) - 15.04 (with kernel 3.19) *were not* working. 15.10 wasn't working either but Apple released in October a "bios" upgrade that you make me apply to debug the situation. Since then 14.04 doesn't work anymore." >From my understanding, 14.04+ does work booting with nomodeset. >"Do you have any suggestion?" Are there any negatives when you boot using nomodeset? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1406810 Title: screen is garbled with 14.10 (was fine with 14.04) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1406810/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
