hateball!notpi14:45
hateballhmmm14:45
hateball!nopti14:45
ubottuKPTI 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
ZebsDell Inspiron Mini.14:45
hateballZebs: well you can first try to reboot and enter grub menu and pick an older kernel and see if that loads properly14:46
ZebsTrying now.14:47

hateball!nomodeset | Might wanna try this also15:01
ubottuMight 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 parameter15:01
