http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177384 Bug ID: 1177384 Summary: Black screen after updating to kernel 5.3.18-lp152.44-default Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.2 Hardware: i686 OS: openSUSE Leap 15.2 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: grewin.mathias@online.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- After updating to kernel 5.3.18-lp152.44-default (Security Update) and rebooting, my monitor displays "Out of Range!" No login to text-console or graphics is possible and I can't get into the system. My Card is a Radeon HD 7750 (AMD) and the Radeon open source driver is running. So I turned back to the formerly kernel-version 5.3.18-lp152.41-default and all works fine. In the OpenSuSE-Forum also this problem is reported with other AMD graphic cards. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

It's only possible to get into the running system with the elder kernel and the information you want is too much expensive for this forum - so I can't send them here (I tried!).
Can you login via ssh from another machine? Also, it's not clear how "expensive"; if you think about the size, you can compress the dmesg output beforehand, of course. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

--- Comment #10 from Takashi Iwai
Now the new kernel 5.3.18-lp152.44-default is running, but only it does when I set "nomodeset" as a new Kernel Parameter! The resolution is only 1400 * 1050 by 77 Hz and there is no other setting possible. So I think, the kernel delivers wrong settings (without nomodeset).
The nomodeset option essentially disables the native graphics, hence it's no wonder that works around the problem but results in the fixed mode. Did you try the procedure in comment 7, and it still leads to a blank screen? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

% mkdir /lib/modules/5.3.18-lp152.44-default/extra % cp /lib/modules/5.3.18-lp152.36-default/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.ko /lib/modules/5.3.18-lp152.44-default/extra/ % depmod 5.3.18-lp152.44-default % mkinitrd
I erred in following the steps. I copied 5.3.18-lp152.41-default/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.ko as .radeon.ko41 in the .44 /kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/ directory and 5.3.18-lp152.36-default/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.ko and as .radeon.ko36 after renaming .44's radeon.ko .radeon.ko44. I then proceeded without the next steps (the /extra/ directory and running % depmod and % mkinitrd) to shutdown, swap DVI cable from DP cable, booted .44, and all seems to be working completely normally. I did note that radeon.ko for all of .36, .41 and .44 have the same byte count, 2,894,595. I see that .33's is 2894691. Then I copied .33's radeon.ko to 5.3.18-lp152.44-default/extra, but '% depmod 5.3.18-lp152.44-default' reported bash: fg: %: no such job My kernel last installed on this host before .44 is .20, so I suppose the regression may be from .36. So I'm paused to comment here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

--- Comment #13 from Takashi Iwai
I undid what I reported copied in comment 11, then followed the steps in comment 7 more precisely. The deviations:
1- didn't use % anywhere
2- used radeon.ko from kernel .33 rather than from .36
Problem with .44 is gone with the result.
OK, thanks, this information helps a lot. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

kernel-default-5.3.18-lp152.123.1.g27f6195.x86_64.rpm 03-Oct-2020 09:57 (standard) and kernel-default-5.3.18-lp152.1.1.g3d4aad4.x86_64.rpm 07-Oct-2020 10:00 (tiwai) both fail.
Both kernels fail, I confirm message of comment 16. (By the way ... I lost my kernel 5.3.18-lp152.41-default trying this - it was overwritten and so I couldn't get into my system anymore. But a snapshot and a rollback by using btrfs-Filesystem was no problem. All ok!) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
