In case such a kernel would be available somewhere i happily would test it. Making such package myself is sadly beyond the limited scope of personal expertise. For completeness: % lspci | grep -i vga 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) kind regards, Thilo

Bug#914495: More evidence that the gen4 adapter commit is at fault
I have 3 Debian machines in the lab, and two booted 4.18.3 fine. One has a Radeon GPU, the other is an Intel GM965. The one that gave me the black screen at boot is: lspci | grep -i vga 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
Bug#914495: nomodeset enabled boot
But the graphics mode is low res (1280x768). Also, 'nomodeset' is no longer documented in the kernel parameters doc ( https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt).

True of course. But in this case there seems to be a very strong correlation with Gen4 Intel GPUs. I believe every one of the reports have had at least a lspci dump showing one of those. And a couple of the reports had stack traces pointing to gen4_render_ring_flush as well. Given this, there is an extremely suspicious commit added in v4.18.20: 06e562e7f515 ("drm/i915/ringbuffer: Delay after EMIT_INVALIDATE for gen4/gen5") I do have an old laptop with an affected chipset generation, and verified that it had the same symptoms. But never got the time to actually test any further. Still, I do think that there is good reason to simply try a revert of that commit. Bjørn
