Hi , I am having some trouble getting a flicker-free boot on an X1C 8th gen. I still see a black screen in this order:
BIOS --> Grub --> OEM splash --> Black screen --> OEM splash + Fedora logo --> GDM
I am dual booting, but am on UEFI. Maybe there is some issue with dual booting? The ideal end goal is to hide Grub (unless shift is pressed) and have a seamless boot - not sure if this is possible though. Here’s my grub.conf:
GRUB_TIMEOUT="5"
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"
GRUB_DEFAULT="saved"
#GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU="true"
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="gfxterm"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rhgb quiet"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG="false"
There may be some issues regarding recent kernels and i915 support as this user has reported Intel i915 module's fastboot option not working in recent kernels / Newbie Corner / Arch Linux Forums.
If anyone could help I would be greatly appreciative!
