Description Felix Botner

2018-09-13 12:12:24 CEST

The installer starts but after installing the base system, i get a black screen (UMC setup expected at this point)

i see lots of these message

GFX1: Failed to lock new back buffer.

All installation tests are broken until this is fixed.

Firefox works as expected after i reboot the machine, so i guess the appliances are not affected.

The problem is that /dev/shm isn't created and mounted with tmpfs.
I can reproduce that firefox works again with a mounted /dev/shm.

Afaik it is mounted through /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/debian.conf which is handled by systemd which is not active in the debian installer.

Firefox 52esr doesn't seem to need /dev/shm.

Also, the "do not show tabs" plugin seems to be broken now, this breaks the app appliance tests.

i have de-activated the UCS 4.3-2 Install Tests, please re-activate if this is fixed.
