--- Comment #17 from Tejas Guruswamy
The boot logo carried from EFI is the intentional behavior, BTW. This is a new feature for "flicker-less" boot on the recent kernel, enabled via CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER option.
Ugh, mine is ugly! But ok, thanks, I guess that is a red herring then. (based on this hint I found "fbcon=nodefer" restores the old behaviour) (In reply to sep hoogzaad from comment #15)
This is with kernel version 5.0.0, r2. The problem was the same, like in the 4.20.3 kernel. With "i915.fastboot=1" booting correct. Without this kernel parameter: no screen, just some flickering.
"i915.fastboot=1" indeed fixes the black screen/flickering problem on 4.20 and 5.0rc, thank you for the suggestion. I will pass this info on to my upstream bug (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109215). Any advice on providing more useful logs would be appreciated. Still don't see any errors in the expected places. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
