I updated the Kernel to 3.13.0-34.60~precise1 and got the same freezes at startup. I found the kernel parameters "debug ignore_loglevel print_fatal_signals=1 LOGLEVEL=8 earlyprintk=vga,keep sched_debug" in Archlinux Wiki [1]. When i boot with these Parameters and "console=tty console=ttyS0,115200n8" for logging I get
[ 8.853449] [drm] Memory usable by graphics device = 2048M [ 8.853452] checking generic (e0000000 500000) vs hw (e0000000 10000000) [ 8.853453] fb: conflicting fb hw usage inteldrmfb vs VESA VGA - removing generic driver [ 9.220645] Console: switching to colour dummy device 80x25 I googled the Error and found [2]. Disabling the framebuffer with the parameter "video=vesafb:off" does not help. I get the same Error at normal startups, too.

Sometimes the kernel freezes at startup. There is no kernelpanic. I can not use Systemrequest-Keys for restart. The only key that gives Feedback is the Numlock-Key (LED toggles). When i powercyle the Computer Grub has no countdown for booting the first Kernel. When I press Enter the Kernel starts normaly. I cannot find something in Syslog or somewhere else. I deactivated the bootparameter quiet und added the Parameter "console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8". I connected the Computer via a Nullmodemcable with another computer and logged the bootprocess with minicom. The Logs are attached. I can not reproduce this Bug in Kernel linux-image-3.11.0-13-generic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1352358/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
