dmesg

Dear Developers!

I have this bug on different Linux kernels. Only with 4.15.0-041500rc8 i am able to boot, but there is no hardware acceleration.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1743427

If you need more informations please let me know.

Best regards,

Hans

Does radeon.uvd=0 on the kernel command line help?
Comment 2 Alex Deucher 2018-01-23 15:01:52 UTC
Can you attach your full dmesg output?

Thanks for your replay

@Michel

Tested but the system crash and the screen becomes only black.

@Alex

Done
Comment 7 Michel Dänzer 2018-01-24 16:15:35 UTC
I suspect Alex meant the full dmesg output without nomodeset. :)
Comment 8 hansmatros76 2018-01-24 17:48:15 UTC
Thanks but how can a do this?

Without this option in Grub i only see 1 second a few lines, then the monitor switch into a black screen. nothing happens anymore. also am not able to ping the host. i have to press the power button for a few seconds to force a shutdown.

> Thanks but how can a do this?

You attached a partial dmesg output in comment 0. Can you just remove the grep so we get the full output?
Comment 10 Alex Deucher 2018-01-24 18:50:52 UTC
Is this a regression?  Did it work previously?  If so, with what kernel?
