Public bug reported:
Please bear with me as This is the last place to resolve the as I have
tried different resources available for the problem already, but with no
effect.Long story short, Ubuntu 16.04 was working fine for a long time
but since recently, It is showing up the black screen after boot.By
blank screen, I mean:-
**The Problem**:-
After Boot (i.e. after purple screen),
1. There is no mouse pointer.
2. A cursor blinks for a few seconds and screen goes 100% black but
still lit, and then after another few seconds, it goes completely dark
as if it is turned off.
3. I wait and then switch to the command-line screen or tty1 to get the
logs.
**What I have done yet**:-
1. I have updated my system, with `oibaf-drivers` but still no help.
`fglrx` is officially deprecated for Ubuntu 16.04 and `amdgpu-pro`
provided by AMD does not support AMD graphic card of my
system.Currently, the system is using(I don't whether it is perfectly
working or not) `radeon driver` (The OSS driver for AMD). For more info,
here are the specs of GPU on my system:-
Display controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Sun LE
[Radeon HD 8550M / R5 M230]
VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated
Graphics Controller (rev 09)
2. `dmesg | grep -i radeon` shows no error during boot-up.
3. Running the system in `nomodeset`, which is resulting in highly poor
graphics performance. It is much deflected compared to ideal.
4. Not running the system in `nomodeset` but using `startX` in tty1, the
systemUI restarts again but `mouse pointer turns to a cross` and only
folders present on my desktop are visible, but no wallpaper can be seen,
no side-dock, no launcher (after the click) and no status bar.The
desktop is completely absent though desktop folders are visible and can
be opened.
Please suggest a solution.
