That could be a KDE screensaver issue, although it could also be in the
X server's screensaver code.

Bug#412275: no display and system freezes after adjusting time with KDE clock on 945GM graphic chip

2007-04-27 Thread Ralph Plawetzki

Hi Brice,

I installed the package using 'APT::Default-Release "stable";' in 
/etc/apt/apt.conf to keep my installalation stable with only the 
required packages from unstable.


This gave me:

After upgrading the 6 packages I used the 'Adjust Date & Time...' from 
KDE clock and changed the time in the 'Configure - KDE Control Module' 
dialogue. I decreased the shown time for two hours. After pressing 'OK' 
the screen went dark, but it came back after pressing a key. The new 
time was accepted.


So it gone better, but in my mind it is still not OK.

I recorded the session, if this is of any help.

Ralph



Bug#412275: no display and system freezes after adjusting time with KDE clock on 945GM graphic chip

2007-04-24 Thread Ralph Plawetzki

Hi Brice,

sure, I will install the new package.
I would like to do a system backup before installing, because I am 
running etch. As I am on a business trip today and tomorrow, I will 
install the new package by end of this week.


Regards,
Ralph

Bug#412275: no display and system freezes after adjusting time with KDE clock on 945GM graphic chip

2007-04-24 Thread Brice Goglin
Hi guys,

We had a report saying that a crash of the X server related to ntpdate
is fixed in 1.3 (xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-2 currently in
unstable). See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=420548

Could you report back whether the system freeze when adjusting time in
KDE is gone too with this new xserver-xorg-core?

Thanks,
Brice

ssh.
When the laptop freezes /home/rallo/.xsession-errors contains the

I was able to change the time using the date-command. This worked from within 
KDE
using a text console as well as in single-user-mode without a X server running 
using
the virtual console.

The new time was stored in the hw clock in both cases and displayed when using 
'$
date' after restarting the laptop. The time displayed using '$ date' was still 
one
hour behind the time displayed by the KDE clock.

To look after the one hour difference between the two clock-displays I used '#
tzconfig'.
It said "Your current time zone is set to Unknown
Do you want to change that? [n]: y
...
Your default time zone is set to 'Europe/Berlin'.
Local time is now:  Mo 26. Feb 10:48:17 CET 2007.
Universal Time is now:  Mo 26. Feb 09:48:17 UTC 2007.". After that the time 
show in the
'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue was the same as the time show in the
KDE clock.

When I then open the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue again and change the time,
clicking OK still makes the screen dark and freezes the system.

Indeed, this soudns exactly like another bug that was reported at least
once a few months back. I applied a patch that was supposed to help with
the problem, but apparently it wasn't the fix that we'd hoped for. Sorry,
I don't have time to track down the original bug numbers right now, but I
can try and fetch them if people want.

Brice, I keep having this problem with ntpdate, for example.  It is not 
related to KDE, I think.  If I dare to synchronize my local time over NTP and 
it happens that I am in the future, bang!  The X server crashes inmediately.  
I think that it was reported repeteadly to upstream, but I did not search for 
a solution since some weeks ago.

Best regards,


Ender.

Just to be sure, can you try changing the time with the 'date' command
instead of the KDE applet?

> The two times still differ for one hour.
>   

There's probably another problem apart from X freezing when the time is
changed. Maybe the system clock is not stored correctly in the hardware
clock before shutdown. I remember having problems like this on a core
duo processor because hwclock needed the --directisa command line option.

You could try without a X server at all, check the time from a virtual
text console, change it, shutdown, restart and see what time you get.
Anyway, that would be a bug in another package.

I decreased the time, because the KDE clock show a time that was one
hour in the future in comparison to my local time.
To decrease the time, I used the down-arrow next to the
hour-field in the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue.
After that I pressed OK and the screen went dark.

Surprisingly to me, the time shown in the 'Adjust Date &
Time...'-dialogue was different from the time shown in the KDE clock
when I opened the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue.
KDE clock show me 15:00, and the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue show me
14:00. So the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue had my local time and I
tried to decrease it for one hour as described above.

By the way when I enter '$ date', I get the same time as in the 'Adjust
Date & Time...'-dialogue.

When the system freezes, I have to turn off the laptop. When it's
rebooted, I can reproduce the error by changing the time again. After
rebooting, the new (=changed) time has been taken over by the KDE
clock and the time shown in the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue.

The two times still differ for one hour.

Did you increase or decrease the time? Does it freeze again if you
change the time again?

Bug#412275: no display and system freezes after adjusting time with KDE clock on 945GM graphic chip

2007-02-24 Thread Ralph Plawetzki
Package: xserver-xorg-video-i810
Version: 2:1.7.2-4
Severity: important


I am running Etch on a HP Compaq nx6310. After seleting 'Adjust Date & Time...' 
from KDE clock I changed the time in the 'Configure - KDE Control Module' 
dialogue. After pressing 'OK' the screen went dark and the system froze.
I wasn't able to restart the X-sever (Ctrl+Alt+BackSpace) or to get the display 
back.

The only thing I could do was to turn off the laptop.
