Re: occasional boot hang on ascii [SOLVED]

This sounds somewhat like my issue:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82481

Since this issue may be related to kernel 3.16 and all of 4.9, 4.13, and 4.14 were giving me graphics artifacts, I'll try my luck with 4.15 and will report back.

Re: occasional boot hang on ascii [SOLVED]

So far, so good with linux-libre kernel 4.15.14, which I got from here: http://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux- … ol/main/l/

No graphics glitches with this kernel, and so far no hung boots. Too early to tell if hung boots issue is solved given that it only happens once in a while, but I will be optimistic and will try (again) marking this issue as solved.

If I don't post again, it's because the hung boots went away.
