Public bug reported:

I installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on my new ASUS UX533F laptop.

The installation seemed successful at first - except for the audio not
working - but then:

- open "Software Updates"
- accept to install all available updates
- reboot
  => The system hangs on the purple screen

If I press the space bar before the ASUS logo at boot, I can access the
GRUB menu and select the Recovery Mode - same problem in Recovery Mode:
the system hangs on the purple screen.

To avoid instability issues with the graphics card NVidia GeForce MX150,
I had added 'nouveau.modeset=0' to /etc/default/grub for the Linux
command line before doing the first software update and reboot.

/etc/default/grub
...
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nouveau.modeset=0"
...

But it doesn't prevent this boot hanging problem. And it is not the
cause of this boot hanging problem.

Adding dis_ucode_ldr to the Linux command line lets me to go past the
GRUB screen and boot Ubuntu 18.04 again. But this is only a workaround.
We need a proper fix.
