  I am trying flickerfree boot in 19.10 [1], but find it actually
  flickers part way through:

1. BIOS logo on a black background.
2. Display mode resets, no image on a black background briefly.
3. BIOS logo on a black background.

  The flicker occurs seemingly during kernel startup since my
  peripherals are lit up before the problem occurs.

  Suspecting this might be related to FB handover:

  I tried disabling that with a big hammer:

    i915.modeset=0

  so it stays in efifb, and that works -- no more flickering, providing
  I don't let i915 take over the framebuffer.

Yeah the problem seems to be getting worse in recent Ubuntu releases and
is more obvious on more laptops. That's good for testing at least.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1836858] Re: Display flickers (monitor loses signal briefly) during "flickerfree" boot, while showing the BIOS logo on a black background

2021-06-05 Thread Basic
Affects me as well. Reproduced on:

* Dell XPS 7390, i7-10510U, integrated graphics, laptop screen
* Focal with latest updates
* Kernels:
  * 5.8.0-55-generic (linux-image-generic-hwe-20.04)
  * 5.13.0-rc4 (vanilla from mainline-ppa)

In the kernel log, "fb0: switching to inteldrmfb from EFI VGA" is the
last line I see before the mode change, and "clocksource: tsc: mask:
0x..." is the first line once the screen turns back on.

i915.fastboot=1 is set in kernel cmdline, didn't make any difference.
Resolution is visually the same before and after the mode change.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1836858] Re: Display flickers (monitor loses signal briefly) during "flickerfree" boot, while showing the BIOS logo on a black background

2020-06-15 Thread Daniel van Vugt
Changed desktop monitors and the problem is now less severe, but still
present. I guess it's all to do with how fast the monitor can change
modes. And that a mode change is occurring at all. Although it seems to
be the same resolution.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunatley vt.handoff=1 did not improve
the situation.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1836858] Re: Display flickers (monitor loses signal briefly) during "flickerfree" boot, while showing the BIOS logo on a black background

2020-06-09 Thread Michael Webster
Just throwing this into the ring...

try replacing $vt_handoff in the grub kernel line with vt.handoff=1
(from 18.04 to 20.04 it seems to have been changed from 1 to 7 to make
the handoff to plymouth more fluid as it loads its own copy of the
firmware splash to draw on).
