I got it working in Arch without downgrading the kernel it may work for Ubuntu as well. Edit the grub file and comment the following entry; GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep Then rebuild the grub
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg Reboot and enjoy I was going to settle for running lts but this works for my setup no issues at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1724639 Title: Bug in Kernel 4.13 : Intel Mobile Graphics 945 shows 80 % black screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1724639/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
