[Bug 1831789] Re: Add "dis_ucode_ldr" to linux boot options for Recovery Mode
Thanks Łukasz! It might be a bit problematic for me to test this in the same situation as I already upgraded my BIOS version, so I'm not having this issue anymore. Of course I can still test it in my current setup, but that does not hang while booting because the latest microcode is already loaded by BIOS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1831789 Title: Add "dis_ucode_ldr" to linux boot options for Recovery Mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1831789/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1868374] Re: Asus WMI hotkey driver bug: External display mode button seems "stuck" on the latest bios
apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: When I upgrade my laptop (ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. ZenBook UX450FDX_UX480FD/UX450FDX, BIOS UX450FDX.307 07/05/2019) to the latest BIOS (UX450FDX.313), the laptop keeps getting events to change the display mode (FN+F8), when having an external monitor connected this makes the laptop unusable, as the gnome mode selector keeps popping up. When not using an external monitor it seriously hinders/slows down keyboard input. When I revert back to the previous BIOS (UX450FDX.307) everything is fine again. What's odd is that when I use the FN+F8 button now I don't get this gnome mode selector, it just changes the mode right away. I'm guessing this is a bug in the kernel asus-wmi driver. I checked the history of the kernel for the file "drivers/platform/x86/asus-wmi.c", but I don't see anything that could have fixed this in 5.3+ kernels. I'm willing to upgrade bios/kernel and/or test experimental drivers in order to fix this.

[Bug 1831789] [NEW] Add "dis_ucode_ldr" to linux boot options for Recovery Mode
Public bug reported: Due to some recent problems with a microcode update which broke booting of some laptops I suggest adding "dis_ucode_ldr" to recovery mode boot options to allow booting after a bad microcode update. See the following topics that describe the problems: - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1829620 - https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/issues/1 When such problems occur it's very hard to see that the microcode loading is the issue, the booting just hangs at the purple screen, even removing "quiet splash" or using the recovery option will not show the error. We'll need to double check that dis_ucode_ldr works as expected across all architectures. According to the kernel docs (Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt), dis_ucode_ldr is x86 only, so my guess is that it will be ignored for other architectures. According to the kernel code (arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/core.c), dis_ucode_ldr works for both AMD and Intel. I have some time tomorrow on test this on a ARM device. This was also discussed Ubuntu Developer mailing list where it was suggested to post this here, see: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives /ubuntu-devel/2019-June/040725.html ** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Due to some recent problems with a microcode update which broke booting of some laptops I suggest adding "dis_ucode_ldr" to recovery mode boot options to allow booting after a bad microcode update.
