RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description xuli 2020-08-12 07:20:08 UTC 
[Hyper-V][RHEL8] VM starts GUI failed on Hyper-V 2019/2016, hangs at "Started GNOME Display Manager" - GDM regression issue.


Description:

VM starts GUI failed on Hyper-V 2019/2016, hangs at "Started GNOME Display Manager". The issue exists on both Gen1 and Gen2 vm. Based on test, regression issue is caused by GDM package gdm-3.28.3-30.el8, if install back the gdm-3.28.3-29.el8, GUI can login successfully.

Version-Release number of selected components (if applicable):

Guest: 
gnome-desktop3-3.32.2-1.el8.x86_64

systemd-239-33.el8.x86_64

Kernel 4.18.0-232.el8.x86_64

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install VM with RHEL8.3 compose RHEL-8.3.0-20200811.0 on Hyper-V, and install GUI packages

2. Start VM.

Actual results:

GUI displays failed, hangs at "Started GNOME Display Manager."

Expected results:

Start GUI normally

Additional info:

When the issue occurs, network and ssh work well. If install back gdm-3.28.3-29.el8.x86_64.rpm, gui can display well.
