Slow Boot with Kernal Error : drm:drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done [drm_kms_helper]] *ERROR* [CRTC:34:pipe A] flip_done timed out


So I am getting all these time out errors on boot and stuff that is slowing my boot to a crawl as I wait for them to time out... I have found a number of threads saying to edit my grub...

Code:
The solution is to edit the file /etc/default/grub and modify the entry 
from: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"	
to:   GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="video=SVIDEO-1:d"
but doesn't this just hide the problem and not fix it? Is doing this the correct way to go about this.. or should I find another solution... maybe uninstall xserver-xorg-video-intel or something?

I'm am using a fresh install of BunsenLab on a old HP Notebook from 2013, HP Compaq 6710b Notebook

Is xserver-xorg-video-intel's driver actually being used? It's mostly appropriate for hardware in the 14 years old and older range. With a laptop from 2013, most likely you shouldn't need xserver-xorg-video-intel installed.

Don't make us look up your hardware specs. Do:
Code:
sudo inxi -GSaz
pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
sudo journalctl -b | pastebinit
and paste the output here so we know what you have and what's happening.

I ended up doing the grub loader thing AND removing "xserver-xorg-video-intel" boot is now pretty fast considering the laptop is 10 years old and has 2GB ram.....

Is this the correct way to fix this?

I'll post this when I get back home to the laptop.

video=SVIDEO-1:d disables the the S-Video output. Most people never use it, so it doesn't get much testing. If you never use it, there isn't any point in keeping it enabled.

The journal does have clues to the possibility of delays, e.g.:
Code:
ntpd[522]: error resolving pool 3.debian.pool.ntp.org: Temporary failure in name resolution (-3)
From your location you might be better off with other NTP servers, such as those from pool.ntp.org. You can change them in /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf.
Code:
sudo journalctl | grep fail
will return lines containing the string fail.
Code:
sudo journalctl -b
will allow perusal of the journal for the current boot.

You can measure startup speed with systemd-analyze, either alone, or with either of the options blame or critical-chain.

Usually the amount of RAM has no impact on boot speed. Where it matters is when you use multiple applications open at the same time, and/or applications that are heavy RAM consumers, such as web browsers. The more RAM, the less the likelihood that swap will be needed. Using swap results in noticeable slowdowns.

From your location you might be better off with other NTP servers, such as those from pool.ntp.org. You can change them in /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf
Code:

#RootDistanceMaxSec=5

I also tried with the fallback hashed out... but I'm still getting ntp errors?

looks like the man data base is almost as slow as my entire boot... can this be changed to only check once a week or something instead of every boot? Or maybe make it update 20 mins after boot?

I also disabled the ModemManager.service ... yes this computer has a dial up modem in it! Yeah.. I will not be using that.
Code:
systemctl disable ModemManager.service
systemctl stop ModemManager.service

IIUC, this is where it's controlled:
Code:
# systemctl cat man-db.timer
# /lib/systemd/system/man-db.timer
[Unit]
Description=Daily man-db regeneration
Documentation=man:mandb(8)

[Timer]
OnCalendar=daily
AccuracySec=12h
Persistent=true

[Install]
WantedBy=timers.target
IIRC if you
Code:
# systemctl edit man-db.timer
to change from daily to weekly or monthly that should do it. Another option might be simply to:
Code:
# systemctl disable man-db.timer
This way would leave it alone until changed by package updates. It's the path I've been implementing lately even though I'm not sure of its efficacy.

I just disabled it. If the man pages update when you update the apps with update/upgrade then, that seems to be pretty much the same thing, right?

Code:
sudo systemctl disable man-db.timer
sudo systemctl stop man-db.timer
