The Aviv, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect from kernel 3.18-rc5 to 3.18 in order to identify the last bad commit, followed immediately by the first good one. Once this commit has been identified, then it may be reviewed as a candidate for backporting into your release. Could you please do this following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection#How_do_I_reverse_bisect_the_upstream_kernel.3F ?

Yes, I've only been installing one file for a given kernel version: the generic amd64 image .deb package. That's because the instructions read: To boot into an upstream kernel you only need to download and install the *image*.deb package that corresponds to your architecture. The other files are only mentioned if you need to build any external modules. But now, I will install three files for a given kernel version: the generic amd64 image .deb package the generic amd64 headers .deb package the all headers .deb package I will try v3.17.2-vivid.

I tried 3.18-rc1. I got the same result as with rc3 and rc4: a black screen. But this time, I also noticed a message quickly flashing (lasting only a second or two): kvm: disabled by bios. So far, I tried: v3.18-rc1-utopic v3.18-rc2-utopic v3.18-rc3-vivid v3.18-rc4-vivid (I didn't try v3.18-rc2-vivid. Joseph Salisbury directed me to v3.18-rc2-utopic.) Please let me know if there are other versions I should try. (By the way, what I do is install the generic amd64 linux image. For rc1, I downloaded linux- image-3.18.0-031800rc1-generic_3.18.0-031800rc1.201410192135_amd64.deb, and installed it using Ubuntu Software Centre.
