[Bug 2017354] Re: The non-recovery=standard boot let hangup the cursor after login after some seconds.

[Pierre Lauber]

Addendum concerning my still confirmed points of above
1. still remains and is still open for fixing.
(The vmlinuz kernel command line without the recovery option is responsible for overwriting (video) memory? Maybe try some bounds-checking here.)

2. No eye catching output during the recovery=verbose kernel boot especially no error messages, everything got OK.
This workaround works reliably currently.

3. Bluetooth does not work as well. It seems this is Ubuntu Bug
#1886169. The latter disappeared by upgrades but the real cause and fix
was not found. So, this bug is back again. (Compared with point 2., this
bug is really annoying and might be easier to fix.)

Title:
  The non-recovery=standard boot let hangup the cursor after login after
  some seconds.

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am forced currently to use the recovery boot which seems to work
  still at least.

  In the standard boot (in grub selecting not the recovery boot menu item) after login in the desktop, the cursor gets stuck after some seconds. No chance to get it moving 
  again whether in graphics or text/terminal mode.
  I was exchanging all HMI devices, so, monitor, kbd and mouse. Same problem.

  The first time, it happened after incremental upgrade from 22.04 to 22.10 to 23.04.
  Finally, I downloaded the ISO image of 23.04 desktop amd64 and using etcher I created a bootable usb stick. Latter (non-incremental) absolute install worked as well but finally ended up in the same problem.

  Please let me get out of recovery boot desktop :-)
