Ubuntu 23.04 boot broken on kernel 6.2 Updated 2025-07-01 +Created 1970-01-01
View more
Switching to the other installed kernel, 5.9 made boot work.
The solution on kernel 6.2 was:
sudo apt instal nvidia-driver-515
as per comments under: bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2012559. This also made the nvidia driver work: Find GPU information in Ubuntu.
Previously I had:
nvidia-driver-510
and it blew up before reaching disk decryption.
I also tried:
nvidia-driver-525
but that broke in a different way:
Finished apport-autoreport.service - Process error reports when automatic reporting is enabled.
nvidia-modeset: ERROR: GPU:0: Idling display engine timed out: 0x0000947d:0:0:407
(1 of 2) Job systemd-backlight@backlight: nvidia_e.service/start running (32s no limit)

Skills / Grading scale stoles from a Goolge interview Updated 2025-07-01 +Created 1970-01-01

10You literally have written a book.
7 - 9Expert, go-to person on this technology.
5 - 6Solid daily working knowledge. Highly proficient.
3 - 4Comfortable working with this, have to check manual on some things.
1 - 2Have worked with it previously but either not much, or rusty.
I copied this grading scale mechanism from a failed Google interview ;-)
One problem with it is that I am always very hesitant to put a 5 on anything, who can not look at the documentation?
It is also hard to scope things right. Who can claim to be a C++ or Linux kernel expert, even if you wrote a book about it, since those are such humongous topics?
As a result, I haven't updated this in a while, and things may be out of date.
If your project does something that interests me, I can what it takes to contribute. Tell me what I must know, how long I have to learn it, and I'll call you back when I've mastered it.

Happens at startup without doing anything, and then keeps happening randomly infinitely many times... on a almost clean 24.04 ISO install on Dell Inspiron 15 3520... God how can it be so bad.
