WHAT HAPPENS
- Amdgpu refuses to start without any information as of why.
- The problem happened between Ubuntu 17.10 and Ubuntu 18.04
- Three behaviors are occurring:
a) The login happens normally (very rare, only 2 times)
b) The login fails, the screen remain stuck and nothing happens
c) The login fails and I am sent back to the login screen
- The mouse cursor does not respond to movements.
- I can access to the console via Ctrl+Alt F4
- The "dmesg" output is in attachment. The smoking gun in my opin=
ion is

or
more than 5secs aborting
TIPS

y in
text mode. So I can update=20
