I've just done a clean install of 18.04 and have the same issue where running 18.04 off a boot usb stick works flawlessly, however after installing on the hard drive the login screen is very laggy and once I enter my password the screen resolution is all messed up and unreadable.
If I reboot and hold down shift to get the Grub menu and choose Advanced then recovery mode and then without altering anything I choose resume from the recovery menu and the login screen works perfectly. So I assume the fix hasn't been rolled out yet as I've run the updater and there's nothing that needs updating on my system. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1808183 Title: ASPEED server console output extremely slow after upgrade to 18.04 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux source package in Bionic: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Cosmic: Fix Released Bug description: ===SRU Justification=== [Impact] Server console is extremely slow on ast, after the upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04. [Fix] Remove firmware/bootloader configured framebuffer device before probing. [Test] User confirmed the patch fixes the issue. [Regression Potential] Low. The fix is in stable tree, limits to one specific device, and other DRM drivers already do this for a while. ===Original Bug Report=== After the upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 my server console is extremely slow. It looks similar to the youtube clips mentioned in the problem described here: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2399941 My server is attached to a KVM switch with VGA cable to a 1920x1080 LCD. It runs on an ASUS P9D-X board. Before the upgrade everything was fine. Now it is so slow that it sometimes even hangs during boot and goes into an emergency console where I just can do a ctrl-alt-delete as described in bug 1802469 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: xorg (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-42.45-generic 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-42-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.5 Architecture: amd64 Date: Wed Dec 12 17:07:48 2018 SourcePackage: xorg Symptom: display UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to bionic on 2018-10-11 (62 days ago) --- ProblemType: Bug AlsaDevices: total 0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 1 Dec 15 07:22 seq crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 Dec 15 07:22 timer AplayDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'aplay': 'aplay' ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.5 Architecture: amd64 ArecordDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'arecord': 'arecord' AudioDevicesInUse: Error: command ['fuser', '-v', '/dev/snd/seq', '/dev/snd/timer'] failed with exit code 1: DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=99dd75dc-dc37-4970-be5a-79d9244a3bcc IwConfig: eth0 no wireless extensions. eth1 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions.
