Here is the list of affected GPU that were working fine with 3.11: - Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Precessor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Integrated Graphics Controller \[8086:22b1\] (rev 35) - (2 reports) - Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/940GL: integrated Graphics controller \[8086:2582\] (rev 04) Here is the list of potential regression (not sure about 3.11 behavior): - Integrated Graphics Controller \[8086:0a16\] (rev0b) - Intel Corporation HD Graphics 630 \[8086:591b\] (rev 04) - (4 reports) → GDM fails to start in troubleshooting mode on 3.13.2; with troubleshooting mode and `xorg-driver=modesetting`, it fails to start because `/dev/dri/card0` does not exist (expected since troubleshooting mode sets `nomodeset`; note that the `nouveau` driver is also loaded - Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 620 \[8086:5917\] (rev 07) → GDM fails to start in troubleshooting mode on 3.14.2 (3.14 booted fine); fixed by passing either one of `xorg-driver=intel` or `xorg-driver=modesetting` for one user; contradictory report that says `xorg-driver=modesetting` is not sufficient on the same hardware And from the few users who answered back, none of the following workaround works: https://tails.boum.org/support/known_issues/graphics/#intel ### Attachments * [CancelText.png](https://redmine.tails.boum.org/code/attachments/download/2382/CancelText.png) ### Related issues - **Related to** tails/tails#16224 - **Related to** tails/tails#16552
