Intel HD Graphics 530 & Ubuntu 18.04

[NedaProgrammer]

I have a AiO (HP ProOne 400 G2 20-inch Touch All-in-One PC)

Graphics: "Intel HD Graphics 530".
I can install Ubuntu just with nomodeset mode.

So now I have low resolution. In this case what to do I do? I install Ubuntu 18.04.

About Details Graphics llvmpipe (LLVM 6.0, 256 bits).

If I select "UEFI - hp PLDS DVDRW DU8AESH" in boot menu and then "install ubuntu" I see just colorful screen (red, green, blue).

If I select "Legacy - hp PLDS DVDRW DU8AESH" in boot menu and then:

1. Press "F8"
2. Press "F6"
3. Select "nomodeset"
4. Install Ubuntu.
5. Every thing is OK but I have not good resolution.

The output for "sudo lshw | grep -A9 VGA" is the following:

- description: VGA compatible controller
- product: HD Graphics 530
- vendor: Intel Corporation
- physical id: 2
- bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0
- version: 06
- width: 64 bits
- clock: 33MHz
- capabilities: pciexpress msi pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list
- configuration: latency=0

HP ProOne 400 G2  doesn't support the Linux?

Hi,

you  should check with

sudo lshw -c video | grep 'configuration'

which driver is Ubuntu using. However you are not the only one that is facing this problem. It seems that this Ubuntu release is kinda buggy. The only thing that seems work is selecting Wayland at the login screen (There should be a drop down menu or an icon to select which desktop to use), it seems forcing the kernel switching to the Intel drivers. Currently you are using the base diver called LLVMpipe.

Best regards
