Bug ID: 97605 Summary: AMDGPU Black Screen when Booting Product: DRI Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) OS: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: DRM/AMDgpu Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: jamoflaw@gmail.com
My laptop (HP Pavilion 15-ab141na) is simply booting to a black screen on 16.04, the backlight is on but there is no display. Sound is working so I can hear the ubuntu logon noise and can SSH from another machine.
During boot the screen on the laptop looks as if it is flashing off and on before settling and remaining black with the backlight on.
Below is the debug info from the Ubuntu system, I think it lists the Carrizo chip but I believe there is a Topaz chip in there too not listed below.

--- Comment #2 from James Payne jamoflaw@gmail.com --- Created attachment 126453 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=126453&action=edit Boot log
Output of journalctl --boot=-1

--- Comment #3 from James Payne jamoflaw@gmail.com --- Thanks Michel
Output attached as requested. This log was generated after a full boot. As soon as you leave the GRUB menu the screen starts to look as if its mode switching, this lasts for about 5-10 seconds before it stops with a black screen with the backlight on.
Many thanks James

--- Comment #4 from Michel Dänzer michel@daenzer.net --- Any chance you can try a newer kernel?
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97605
--- Comment #5 from Timo Aaltonen tjaalton@ubuntu.com --- a convenient way to try newer kernels on ubuntu is to wget the deb from
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
in your case "generic" for amd64
amdgpu.ko on 16.04 is backported from 4.5, so try something newer

--- Comment #6 from James Payne jamoflaw@gmail.com --- Hi Michel/Timo
I have previously managed to get the system booting (albeit with the same screen issues) but for some reason the newer kernels (I've tried 4.7RC6 and DRM-Next as of today 18th Sept) and both are failing to boot entirely, don't even get to bring up the wired network which I have managed to open a SSH session between two laptops to at least interrogate the non functioning laptop now. Though messing with the kernels seems to have caused some huge corruption on the filesystem through all the system buttoning I'm having to do :) Another reinstall required I think.
Is there a specific kernel (maybe not bleeding edge) that I can try? - fyi I also have a Broadcom wireless which is attempting to compile a kernel module during each deb install, I noticed on those two kernels the module failed to compile correctly so might be where the issue is coming from.
For reference, I originally posted this on launchpad which has a few more details collected from apport: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu/+bug/159...

--- Comment #7 from James Payne jamoflaw@gmail.com --- Just noticed I did list the kernels I had previously tried in the Ubuntu bug report:
v4.7-rc5-yakkety/ v4.4.4-wily/
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97605
--- Comment #8 from Timo Aaltonen tjaalton@ubuntu.com --- James, you need to test bleeding edge kernels in order to check if the bug still exists or not.. so grab latest v4.9-rc from the mainline repo to see if it's better

--- Comment #9 from Thomas J. Moore darktjm@gmail.com --- Symptoms and hardware appear to be identical to but 97055. I'll let either the bug reporter or someone else with authority mark it as such, though.
