Well, I tested on my laptop with: paul@paul-NC210-NC110:~$ cat /proc/version Linux version 3.14.79-031479-generic (kernel@gloin) (gcc version 4.8.4 (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.3) ) #20160910530 SMP Sun Sep 11 09:41:06 UTC 2016
When I used gdebi to install the kernel .deb, in the details, there were some errors. I believe this was because I did not installed headers .deb before... I would suggest you install the headers .deb before... but it work even without the headers .deb. Also gdebi said version was already installed: I am pretty sure it was not. I lost my wifi however after rebooting with that version (I plugged Ethernet wire for writing this). And I am on Linux Mint 19.1. When I rebooted, it continue to boot with old kernel, and was not showing me the menu... even if I pressed Esc and Shift. So I edited /etc/default/grub from: GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden GRUB_TIMEOUT=0 to: GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 but I think this could be needed only on Mint. after that, advanced options were showing, and I was able to select old kernel version. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791312 Title: ubuntu 18.04 flickering screen with Radeon X1600 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1791312/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
