[Bug 1897185] Re: login triggers suspend after update
Two additional observations on this bug: -This bug is becoming more persistent on the second machine (the first one is completely sidelined due to all this; an attempt to reload Ubuntu on it failed due to bug 1871268). -I looked back: this problem of going into suspend as soon as the login password is entered started on September 24. Immediately before that, Ubuntu Updater installed updates to grub, nvidia drivers (which are needed on the first machine affected), and some other modules. This update came about a week after an earlier one that had updated initramfs modules. This whole situation started a day or two before September 14: one the 14th, I noted the hang on spinning circle during startup and initramfs errors had just started. At that time, I was able to work around those 2 by disabling the splash screen and re-creating the ram drive with the initramfs tools. But since the subsequent updates, Ubuntu effectively became unusable on my main machine. It is touch and go on my backup machine.And those workarounds no longer work either. This login triggers suspend problem has no workaround for me.

This morning, this bug affected a second machine here. Updater ran on Oct 1. This is the same machine that started having ACPI errors after the boot hanging when docked with an external display (#1872159). These problems seem to be interrelated: #1872159, 1835660, 1897185. And as stability deteriorates and you try to reinstall, you get bug #1871268. Bad and getting worse. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1897185 Title: login triggers suspend after update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1897185/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1897185] Re: login triggers suspend after update
This bug continues to recur even after a fresh reinstallation of Ubuntu. After working through the installation crash (bug 1871268) by using the latest daily image; trying unsuccessfully to get rid of the still recurring initramfs errors (bug 1835660); and disabling the splash screen to avoid the dreaded spinning Ubuntu logo hang during boot (bug 1872159); the system, when docked, still went into suspend immediately after entering the login password during startup. This occurred on a T570 with dual boot (Windows 10 and Ubuntu freshly installed from the latest focal daily-live current image). Downgrading the nVidia driver also failed: once I did that, the system wouldn't boot at all. It just stopped at a blinking cursor on an otherwise black screen. None of these things were issues until the middle of September updates; and after the big 20.04.1 update about a week ago, things got really bad. Be advised that installing from an earlier version (in this case 20.04 images from May and June of this year) also does not work: these installs fail on the same crash as the current 20.04.1 image (bug 1871268). This problem of the machine, docked with an external display as primary (laptop lid down), appears to be a recurrence of previous bugs that were thought to be fixed. Please address ASAP.

[Bug 1897185] Re: login triggers suspend after update
Additional observations: 1. This bug is interacting with another: where the "short name" of the user (the Home file name) rather than the full user name is showing up on the login screen. Usually the short name shows up on this machine when it is docked. When the laptop is being used by itself, the full name shows up. ONLY ONCE tonight has the full name shown up at login in the dock... and when it did, the machine did not suspend. 2. This bug is also affecting automatic WiFi connection. When the machine suspends and I press power again to resume it (on the dock), it connects to WiFi as it should. But on that one occasion where the full user name showed up and it did not suspend, it cannot find the WiFi network security credentials even though they are stored. Very strange. 3. In working with this tonight, the spinning ubuntu logo hang came back during login. Since I know that initramfs was updated shortly before the kernel and nvidia updates, I created a new initramfs image. I also had to update that new image explicitly with a second execution of the update-initramfs command. I turned the splash screen back off, and verified that refreshing the ramdrive has once again cleared the initramfs deconding errors. 4. So the changes to initramfs, to the core/kernel, and to the nvidia drivers don't seem to be getting along with each other too well. I hope this helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1897185 Title: login triggers suspend after update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1897185/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
