[Bug 1574732] Re: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable
This bug has just had a xenial bug task added to it, but the issue described here has been resolved for some time. Current versions of dkms-based module packages prompt users to enroll a machine owner key in firmware to allow loading of modules not signed by the kernel's key.

[Bug 1574732] Re: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable
First of all, thank you for your fast response! It is amazing! Yes, there was a question about secure boot, but - just as other users who experienced the same problem - I was not aware about the significant change in the handling of secure boot and the consequences thereof. Formerly Ubuntu worked with secure boot enabled, hence I saw no reason to disable it. There was some explanation about 3rd-Party-modules on that dialog, yes, but because I do not use any other sources other than those provided by Ubuntu, I didn't feel concerned. Maybe the German translation is even more misleading (however I do not recall the exact wording of the dialog on upgrade), because the section in the control panel is called "Zusätzlich Treiber" and it mentions "Proprietäre Treiber" in the text in the control panel, but not 3rd Party Software, what I think was the term used on the upgrade dialog (though I am not quite sure about that). And since everything worked when I selected the older Kernel 4.2.0-35 I did not think about this at all any longer :-( and it took quite a while to figure out the reason of the problem... If those modules get signed automatically in the future, this will help a lot... Maybe meanwhile the Dialog on Upgrade could be made a little bit more clear about the problems and that those using nvidia drivers will not be able to log in after upgrade? I uninstalled nvidia, booted with secure boot enabled and installed nvidia again (using the control panel -> "Zusätzliche Treiber" = "additional drivers"), but there was no message about secure boot there. After reboot I couldn't log in again as expected. For me it is ok now that I know the reason. But I think a lot of people might run into severe troubles... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574732 Title: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/shim/+bug/1574732/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

That is the goal. I'm surprised that you didn't get a dialog on upgrade that requested a decision on secure boot mode.

Thank you for this description. But it seems to be rather complicated for a normal desktop user, who has been locked out from his system after the upgrade to 16.04 (unity refuses to start without 3D-Acceleration!).

Here is a rough example for how to support 3rd party modules in a secure boot environment.

[Bug 1574732] Re: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable
The problem seems to be due to uefi secure boot option now checking also the keys of modules, which the nvidia driver obviously does not provide. Disabling secure boot solved the problem for me, but completely disabling it just because there is no signature for the nvidia driver seems to be a really bad option! Shouldn't there be an option to install signatures for third party drivers, that are supported (nvidia, virtualbox etc)? I think this bug rather affects the package 'shim'... ** Also affects: shim Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574732 Title: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/shim/+bug/1574732/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I just upgraded to 16.04 and can't log in any longer with the latest (default) kernel 4.4.0-21. If i select an older kernel (4.2.0-35) everything works fine. Trying to load nvidia drivers manually say something like 'required key missing' (i would have to reboot with the latest kernel to see the exact wording however). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574732 Title: Regression: Kernel Update in 16.04 from last days renders nvidia driver unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1574732/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
