Bug Description

Steps to Reproduce:
- Ubuntu-32 16.04.1 on ASUS-F200MA
- last Update in Dec 2017 with Linux Kernel 4.4.0-104
- Update in Mar 2018 with Linux Kernel 4.4.0-116
- Reboot

Result:
- Boot hangs with Ubuntu-Startscreen in wrong Resolution 800x600 instead 1366x768.
- The dots are moving, but nothing more happens.

The Boot with Linux Kernel 4.4.0-104 still works and all hardware too, so I uninstalled 4.4.0--116 and manually installed Linux Kernel 4.4.0-108
Result:
- Boot successful with Ubuntu-Startscreen, but again in wrong Resolution 800x600.
- After login: wrong graphic resolution: 800x600, switch to 1366x768 not possible, no Sound, no network connection etc.

Installing HWE Kernel with:
- sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-16.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04

Result:
- The system aigain works correctly.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream stable kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.4 stable kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
the mainline kernel v4.4.121 works fine.
Please note, that with the installation of the hwe-16.04 kernel, also xserver was updated to 1.19, so I can not say anything about the combination of kernel v4.4.121 with the original xserver.

Now I have:
