I forgot all about this bug until the tag of cscc was added. As reported previously the machine is now running 18.04.2 LTS fairly well. All updates including kernels have been done,
Graphics now state IntelĀ® Ironlake Mobile and the /etc/default/grub file contains the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" So all is well with the world. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1764087 Title: Wrongly boots into low graphics mode using kernel 4.13.0-38 (mostly works with 4.13.0-37) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1764087/+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
