Booting into the *-26 kernel gave a very quick handover to Gnome, but with some kind of badly painted cursor and progress images apparently bleeding through from the plymouth screens. However the deal breaker is that networking isn't enabled at all.
Report then is that *-26 kernel is not a workaround or a fix for this machine: Clevo bareboook W540 onboard graphics. haveged is a workaround for getting into Gnome with *-24 kernel but networking is fairly retarded in its delivery to the desktop after Gnome starts - averaging 30s. Booting into *-23 is the optimum boot speed and delivers networking in good time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1779827 Title: failure to boot with linux-image-4.15.0-24-generic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1779827/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
