Description fedoraman 2025-09-06 02:27:24 UTC
1. Please describe the problem:
After upgrading from kernel 6.14 to 6.16 on Fedora 42, the screen did not turn on? 
My notebook hardware includes an Intel Ultra 9 275 HX GPU and an NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti. It boots with the iGPU at startup, and everything works fine with 6.14 with drivers functioning properly. However, after upgrading to 6.16, there seems to be a kernel issue affecting the iGPU. I will provide the system log files attached and below. What exactly is the problem, how can it be fixed, or how can I help the Fedora team to resolve this kernel issue? I saw an error with the following title: fedora kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] ERROR [CRTC:88:pipe A] DSB 0 poll error

2. What is the Version-Release number of the kernel:

kernel-6.16.4-200.fc42
3. Did it work previously in Fedora? If so, what kernel version did the issue
   *first* appear?  Old kernels are available for download at
   https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 :

When I first installed Fedora 42, it worked with the kernel 6.14.0-63.fc42.x86_64. After upgrading, the issue appeared.



7. Please attach the kernel logs. You can get the complete kernel log
   for a boot with ``journalctl --no-hostname -k > dmesg.txt``. If the
   issue occurred on a previous boot, use the journalctl ``-b`` flag.
journalctl -b -1 -p err

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 fedoraman 2025-09-13 00:09:28 UTC
I upgraded to kernel version 6.16.7, but the same issue still persists. When will this problem be fixed, or where should I report this bug?

Comment 2 Justin M. Forbes 2025-09-24 13:59:31 UTC
Have you given the 6.17 kernels a try? https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=2827240

I tried kernel version 6.17 from the link you provided, and then 6.16.8, but I'm getting the same error. I've even tried different distributions and I'm still getting the same error. What can I do about this?

Comment 4 fedoraman 2025-10-02 13:31:32 UTC
I tried the 6.16.9 and 6.17 kernels, but I keep getting the same error. How can this error be fixed? Is there light at the end of the tunnel?

Come on guys, let’s not sleep, let’s get up and work, and finally fix this error already, if you don’t mind. The error has gotten so old that it’s almost going to become an antique and extremely valuable—I might even have to sell it to an antique dealer :) Just to remind you, our error is: kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] ERROR [CRTC:88:pipe A] DSB 0 poll error

When I tried to boot my notebook using a Fedora Live USB, the screen showed the following error:
[0.860432] dracut-cmdline[489]: //lib/dracut/hooks/cmdline/29-parse-livenet.sh: line 6: get_url_handler: command not found
When I tested the same Live USB on my older notebook with an AMD processor, Fedora 43 Beta booted and worked without any issues.

the same issue persists with the 6.17.4-200.fc42.x86_64 kernel and header versions; I also tested it on Ubuntu 25.10, and it shows the same problem. On Ubuntu in particular, the system startup sound plays, but there’s no display — it gets stuck on the splash screen. Fedora 43 beta live USB doesn’t boot at all and throws an error. When I plug the same USB drives into my older notebook, they boot perfectly fine, so the USBs themselves are not the issue. In short, the same error continues to occur — I wanted to bring this to your attention.

When I connect my notebook to a TV via HDMI, the display works fine there, but on the notebook’s own monitor, the backlight is on yet the screen stays black with no image. The kernel version is 6.17, and my monitor specifications are as follows:

Kernel logs

I'm also affected by this bug, it seems. I've got a Dell Pro 13 Premium (PB13250) running Fedora 43 with Kernel 6.17.8. External monitors work without issue, as the OP said. Additionally, if you let the system boot with the frozen screen, and then suspend and wake up the laptop (by either closing the lid, or pressing the power button), the built-in display starts working again and you can log in and use the laptop without issue (until the next reboot, of course).

When I suspend and resume, the backlight of the built-in monitor also turns off and the screen becomes completely dark.

The problem was solved when I installed the Linux kernel version 6.18.0-65.

Comment 13 Fedora Release Engineering 2026-05-06 14:02:05 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 42 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 42 on 2026-05-13.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '42'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden.
Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 42 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.

Comment 14 Aoife Moloney 2026-06-08 18:30:07 UTC
Fedora Linux 42 entered end-of-life (EOL) status on 2026-05-27.

Fedora Linux 42 is no longer maintained, which means that it
will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we
are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora Linux
please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Note that the version
field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see
the version field.

If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against an
active release.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
