SGX disabled by BIOS in Ubuntu 22.04

Question

System information:

• Intel Core i5-10600K
• Gigabyte H510M H
• NVIDIA GTX 1050TI 4GB
• 500GB x1 NVME SSD (Installed Ubuntu), 2TB x1 HDD, 1TB x1 IDE HDD, and 250GB x1 SSD

Operating system:

• Ubuntu 22.04
• kernel 5.15.0-27-generic

Solution 1

I had the same problem, but the SGX option literally did not exist in my BIOS, so it was impossible to change that.

A workaround was to reinstall with the "Minimal installation" option (as opposed to "Normal"), as well as not download updates or install third party software.

Solution 2

For me the solution was exactly what the error message suggests: to enable SGX in BIOS. I have an HP Elitebook, in the BIOS Security section there is a checkbox:

• Intel Software Guard Extension (SGX)

I set it to Enable (instead of Disable or Software defined)

Boot with nomodeset and install Nvidia drivers.

Does this answer your question? My computer boots to a black screen, what options do I have to fix it?

Does this answer your question? Can't install Ubuntu from an USB stick: AE_NOT_FOUND, AE_ALREADY_EXISTS
