Zebs | Stupid question, how do I locate an old kernel version through apt-get? Using apt-cache search does not find it. | 05:19 |
---|---|---|
Zebs | Scratch that, worked it out. | 05:31 |
josh | hi | 08:20 |
josh | hello is there ny body | 08:21 |
Zebs | Well, this isn't good. | 14:34 |
Zebs | No boot. Sticks at splash screen. | 14:34 |
Zebs | Trying to do things in recovery-mode, it gets to [ OKAY ] Started Load/Save Random Seed. | 14:34 |
Zebs | *[ OK ] | 14:34 |
hateball | Zebs: did this use to be a working system? | 14:45 |
hateball | have you recently updated kernel and this happened perhaps? | 14:45 |
Zebs | After install, I was able to reboot once, maybe twice. | 14:45 |
hateball | !notpi | 14:45 |
hateball | hmmm | 14:45 |
hateball | !nopti | 14:45 |
ubottu | KPTI is a mitigation for the !Meltdown security issue. With some workloads on some processors, KPTI has a significant performance impact. KPTI can be disabled by adding "nopti" to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line in /etc/default/grub. This should only be done if absolutely necessary because it will disable protections against Meltdown and thus allow any malicious user process to read memory and probably escalate to root. | 14:45 |
Zebs | Dell Inspiron Mini. | 14:45 |
hateball | Zebs: well you can first try to reboot and enter grub menu and pick an older kernel and see if that loads properly | 14:46 |
Zebs | Trying now. | 14:47 |
Zebs | Was trying recovery options for the old kernel. | 14:47 |
Zebs | Splash screen froze right away. | 14:50 |
hateball | Zebs: try removing the "quiet splash" from bootline | 15:01 |
hateball | !nomodeset | Might wanna try this also | 15:01 |
ubottu | Might wanna try this also: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 15:01 |
Zebs | Ooh, found a thing... | 15:08 |
Zebs | Seems to hit [ OK ] Reached target Sound Card. | 15:09 |
Zebs | Then nothing. | 15:14 |
Zebs | So, maybe one of the drivers that installed when updating? | 15:16 |
