I'm afraid I won't be able to test the Bionic version before the end of the year. I don't have a Bionic installation on my machine, and the next free weekend for installing a new system and doing tests like that would be in 2020... Anybody else, who could give it a try?

However, upgrading my system from Kubuntu 18.10 (working) via 19.04 (does not boot) to 19.10 resulted in a boot failure. Last message shown on the screen is: fb0: switching to amdgpudrmfb from EFI VGA After some research I found that the package linux-firmware does not include the necessary files /lib/firmware/amdgpu/navi10_*. After I manually copied the missing files from the repository git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux- firmware.git, I was able to boot normally. Please update the package linux-firmware and add the needed firmware. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 19.10 Release: 19.10 $ apt-cache policy linux-firmware linux-firmware: Installiert: 1.183 Installationskandidat: 1.183 Versionstabelle: *** 1.183 500 500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu eoan/main amd64 Packages 500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu eoan/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1848848/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
