Title:
Black screen on boot; no modeset workaround broken by 16.04
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
This bug appears to occur in several distros and architectures. On
this machine, it appeared somewhere in the last week of January, 2016,
after a system update.
On boot, the laptop monitor often flickers several times (signal
connecting and disconnecting) and always settles onto a full backlight
back screen. The screen does not change after that.
I found reports that adding nomodeset to the grub parameters would
resolve the issue. It does, but the workaround has significant issues
in 16.04. The nomodeset parameters conflict with both the amdgpu
driver package and the radeon driver package. When the machine boots,
it is in 800x600 resolution. While I can add new resolutions,
attempting to switch to them with xrandr throws the error "configure
crtc0 failed"
