Hello, I am seeing a reproducible boot regression with Linux 7.0 on an MSI Creator A16 AI+ A3HVGG laptop. Last known working kernel: Ubuntu/Mint kernel 6.17.0-41-generic Affected kernels: 7.0.0-27-generic 7.0.0-28-generic Symptom: The system reaches the Linux Mint splash screen, then the display turns completely black. No graphical login screen is visible and switching to a TTY with Ctrl+Alt+F2 does not produce visible output. The system appears to continue booting: logs from the failed boot show that amdgpu and the NVIDIA driver load and LightDM starts. I did not see a kernel panic, GPU reset, amdgpu timeout, or obvious Xorg crash. Regression status: Reproducible with both tested 7.0 kernels. Booting 6.17.0-41 restores normal display output. Hardware: Laptop: MSI Creator A16 AI+ A3HVGG, motherboard MS-15FK CPU: AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 Integrated GPU: AMD Radeon 890M / Strix Point Discrete GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU BIOS: E15FKAMS.316, dated 2025-09-11 Desktop: Linux Mint 22.3 Cinnamon, Ubuntu 24.04 base Display manager: LightDM NVIDIA driver: 595.84 open kernel modules Display configuration: Internal panel: 2560x1600 at 240 Hz External monitor: 1920x1080 at 120 Hz via USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode The AMD GPU drives the displays. Relevant messages seen in the failed boot include: NVRM: failed to get target temp from SBIOS NVRM: failed to get platform power mode from SBIOS There are also several ACPI BIOS error messages, but these are present or similar on the working kernel as well. I can provide the complete logs and test additional kernel parameters or patched kernels. #regzbot introduced: v6.17..v7.0 Regards, Alexander Zorn
