[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509326] Re: Various instabilities after resuming from standby
Okay... I'm seeing some glitches with Nouveau, but not all. 1) Spontaneous wake-ups, not going to sleep when told to, and similar are gone. 2) There is still improper detection of monitor configuration changes between suspend and resume. Dlosing and reopening the lid fixed that in one instance, don't know whether that is a general rule. Now that monitor detection is clearly identified as an unrelated problem, I agree it should go to a separate problem report. How do I proceed about the spontaneous wake-ups? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509326 Title: Various instabilities after resuming from standby To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1509326/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509326] Re: Various instabilities after resuming from standby
I can't file reports for different issues because I can't even name a single issue. All I'm seeing is sporadic but nonreproducible, somehow related failures. Some of them may be unrelated, some of them might be misconfiguration leftovers from previous installs or attempts at getting the machine to work reliably, but I have no way of determining which is which. Trying nouveau now. It used to deliver insufficient performance to drive both of my monitors though; maybe it got upgraded, but I'm not confident. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509326 Title: Various instabilities after resuming from standby To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1509326/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509326] Re: Various instabilities after resuming from standby
Can you give me some instructions how to nail down the actual cause of these problems? The symptoms are so varied and instrutable, it almost looks as if some race conditions deep down in the software stack leave stuff in inconsistent state. Logging pertinent status information for each startup might be a good start. The system is showing the login screen even though everything has been configured to not show the login screen. Finding out the reason why would be a good start, then I'd look for the reasons for the reason, until the root cause is found. (This might even be a hardware glitch, but without any pointers to a concrete failure I can't turn in the machine for fixing. Also, if it's a hardware problem, it would be worth it submitting a bug report to whatever software subsystem should have logged it.) ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509326 Title: Various instabilities after resuming from standby To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1509326/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Issues are persistent in Wily BTW. Can't say if they are exactly the same since the behaviour is so unstable. Some of the old behaviour seems gone, but I'm getting new weirdnesses, such as lightdm spontaneously restarting after unsuspending.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509326] Re: Various instabilities after resuming from standby
11) Did a reboot because graphics performance had dropped. Reboot through XFCE desktop would make the screen go black, pstree showed that the desktop still lived. reboot command from console would work, but boot into a black screen (after a brief display of a background and something that might have been the mouse pointer). Closing and opening the lid would not help, detaching the laptop from the docking station and Ctrl-Alt-F7 would restore the XFCE desktop, reattaching to the docking station would give access to the docking-station-connected screens. So... something wasn't properly initialized with the docking station attached during boot. For reference, I have placed the following script on a hotkey to switch from laptop to docking-station-connected screens. #! /bin/sh echo == >>/home/jo/xrandr.log echo docked.sh >>/home/jo/xrandr.log date >>/home/jo/xrandr.log echo >>/home/jo/xrandr.log xrandr --output DP-6 --auto >>/home/jo/xrandr.log 2>&1 xrandr --output LVDS-0 --off >>/home/jo/xrandr.log 2>&1 xrandr --output DP-3 --auto --left-of DP-6 --primary >>/home/jo/xrandr.log 2>&1 It's extremely rigid and unable to deal with any variation in the hardware situation, and sometimes is fails to disable LVDS-0 and cannot activate DP-3 afterwards (I think because there are only two CRTCs), but if all hardware is properly detected, it will work reliably on the second attempt... barely good enough so I don't have to redo Display configuration every time it fails to auto-reconfigure when attaching to or detaching from the docking station. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509326 Title: Various instabilities after resuming from standby To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1509326/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509326] [NEW] Various instabilities around hibernate, standby, and display control
Public bug reported:
None of these problems are readily reproducible, I'm having a roughly
30:70 chance of a successful standby or shutdown cycle.
Things that I have seen happen:
1) Click on Whisker menu -> Logoff ("Abmelden") button ->
Logoff/Restart/Reboot/Standby dialog (no Hibernate option, I think it's
blacklisted for my machine) -> Click on "Shutdown" -> no shutdown, I get
the login screen.
2) Trying to go to standby from the Logoff button in the login screen
after seeing (1) -> monitor switches off, then on, login screen again.
3) After (2), close the lid, open it, standby procedure from login
screen -> works. Sometimes.
4) After (2), remove machine from docking station, standby procedure
from login screen -> works. Sometimes.
5) Machine is in standby, I press the power button, I get some text mode
messages, monitor flashes and shows graphic content (mostly a mouse
cursor on some background, too fast to properly see), then the screen
goes dark. Ctrl-Alt-F1 works, Ctrl-Alt-F7 simply makes the screen dark
again (both the builtin laptop screen and one of the external,
connected-through-docking-station screens).
6) The effects from (5) can also happen right after cold booting the
machine.
7) I *think* on a few occasions, I tried to shutdown the machine and
nothing happened at all.
8) On some rarer occasions, nothing would happen after the shutdown
command, and trying to issue another shutdown resulted in a message
amounting to "can't do another action while the previous action is in
progress"; I remember pstree reported some hung process that was
connected to shutdown, and I couldn't kill it (not even kill -9). I
cannot reproduce this, and I didn't take notes so I can't be more
specific.
I have no idea which of these effects are related to a common cause and which
are independent.
I have been unable to find out anything given that no individual phenomenon is
reproducible with any reliability.
I hope the attached debug info will help, but I fully expect this to require
much more diagnosis.
Hardware:
- Dell Precision M4600
- did a BIOS update a while ago (that changed the problems, slightly for the
better I think)
- Docking station PR02X
- Two 2560x1440 Dell U2515H monitors, one on each video output of the docking
station
- nVidia Quadro 2000M, using the proprietary driver (Nouveau cannot drive two
2560x1440 screens)

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509326] Re: Various instabilities after resuming from standby
It's my main and only work machine, I can upgrade if and only if I can easily revert any upgrade. I don't expect to be able to revert from Wily to Vivid, so that's not an option unless I can have guarantees. A driver update would be fine, I can always go back to Nouveau, then reinstall the current Nvidia driver. Given #1488206 and #1507328, and that I've been having these problems for years now, I do not expect the driver update to fix anything, but I can still check and see what's happening. (My bets are on a race condition somewhere in the wakeup software stack since the symptoms are so irreproducible, but I don't know how to validate that.) More symptoms: 9) Sometimes (rarely), X stops recognizing the screen. I get a "default" screen @1024x768 instead of the VGA-0, LVDS-0, and DP0...DP-6 connections in xrandr --verbose. It does not help to reboot, not even when disconnecting from all power including battery. What does help is installing Nouveau, then reinstalling nvidia-current. 10) Sometimes (slightly more often than symptom nr. 9), I get the same as nr. 8, shutdown does not complete. I cannot get a console through Ctrl-Alt-F1, but I can Ctrl-Alt-F7 and get a graphic screen with a greyed-out desktop and an empty dialog window (there's a white title bar and a grey dialog area, but no title, no icons, no text, no buttons, no border, entirely unresponsive). What I could do was to Ctrl-Alt-Del to get to the lock screen. From there, I could resume my normal session (just to restore the same greyed-out-with-unresponsible-dialog behaviour). I could also start a guest session, but I didn't try anything there because I believe guest isn't in the sudoers list. Logging in with explicit user name gave me a black screen and unresponsiveness to Ctrl-Alt-F1 and Ctrl-Alt-F7, so I power cycled the machine and called it a day. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509326 Title: Various instabilities after resuming from standby To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1509326/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
