[Bug 341344] Re: session crashing randomly - may be power management issue

2009-04-16 Thread Teunis Peters
I haven't managed to reproduce it in the last week.
The log files get rather large 
but attaching current, as may help.

Not consistently reproducible but above describes it as best, also sometimes 
happen when machine is unplugged from power - or plugged in - or the battery 
changes levels
all of it's involving X, gnome-session, power management, dbus and the kernel - 
and some kind of interaction between these all.

basically, either X suddenly aborts (to login prompt) or the machine powers 
off.   It's not running hot.
To reproduce somewhat more consistently: run something that uses 100% CPU for a 
period of time.
anything with flash and epiphany or konqueror (mozilla handles flash better) - 
although latest flash version seems better.
Many mono/C# packages, especially if windows programs
many windows programs (wine) - but only if directx.
(these problems reduced when I dismantled laptop and cleaned it thoroughly, so 
I suspect heat warning became a dbus fatal error)

note that problem is inconsistent,

There is one 100% way to reproduce it:
dbus fatal error

I'm going to experiment with that more when I finish my current
contracts.   Currently I try to avoid the behaviours that trigger the
crashes as I don't want to lose more work.

There is no difference between this Xorg.log and one from a crash - from
what I've seen.   The only message I remember seeing is a session close
- so it's likely not X itself that's doing this, although it could be
the i865 driver which isn't 100% although it's improving of late.

log file excerpt included above is all information available, without
compromising security.   (although I can provide longer excerpt
including whole boot sequence, if you wish)

Any suggestions at all on how to debug dbus problems, gnome-session
problems and power problems - WITHOUT disruption to the system - would
be appreciated.

[Bug 341344] [NEW] session crashing randomly - may be power management issue

2009-03-11 Thread Teunis Peters
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-session

Likely gnome-session
session crashes - closing X session and logging out - randomly (somewhat).
Sometimes happens in lid close.
Sometimes happen in resume (from suspend)
Sometimes happens when screensaver activates
Sometimes just happens (I don't see anything - all of a sudden everything 
closes and I'm sent back to login)

suspect power management problem.   Might also be gnome-screensaver.
Note: Intel 965 video chipset on Dell hardware, not well supported -
opengl fails a lot of the time - may also be related.   This is a severe
bug.

It's been happening since I updated to jaunty.   Upside: wireless (wl 
driver from broadcom) now works stably unlike only other "working" 
driver ndiswrapper.   Also, video doesn't crash as often and I get less 
heat reboots.
Downside: this.   (also much python breakage)

for frequency: mostly I avoid the situation as it's hard losing work - 
which I do every time this happens.   once a week (roughly) for 
screensaver crashes.   suspend/resume about 50% failure.   Nothing was 
visible in those logs before - but I'll check next crash.
I've even had it happen a couple of times during an apt update - but 
those never surprise me when using "unstable" distro.   (if only stable 
worked reliably on my hardware!)

I've a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop - in case that helps.

shall do.
It's been happening since I updated to jaunty.   Upside: wireless (wl 
driver from broadcom) now works stably unlike only other "working" 
driver ndiswrapper.   Also, video doesn't crash as often and I get less 
heat reboots.
Downside: this.   (also much python breakage)

for frequency: mostly I avoid the situation as it's hard losing work - 
which I do every time this happens.   once a week (roughly) for 
screensaver crashes.   suspend/resume about 50% failure.   Nothing was 
visible in those logs before - but I'll check next crash.
I've even had it happen a couple of times during an apt update - but 
those never surprise me when using "unstable" distro.   (if only stable 
worked reliably on my hardware!)

I've a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop - in case that helps.

[Bug 341344] Re: session crashing randomly - may be power management issue

2009-04-16 Thread Teunis Peters
I haven't managed to reproduce it in the last week.
The log files get rather large 
but attaching current, as may help.

Not consistently reproducible but above describes it as best, also sometimes 
happen when machine is unplugged from power - or plugged in - or the battery 
changes levels
all of it's involving X, gnome-session, power management, dbus and the kernel - 
and some kind of interaction between these all.

basically, either X suddenly aborts (to login prompt) or the machine powers 
off.   It's not running hot.
To reproduce somewhat more consistently: run something that uses 100% CPU for a 
period of time.
anything with flash and epiphany or konqueror (mozilla handles flash better) - 
although latest flash version seems better.
Many mono/C# packages, especially if windows programs
many windows programs (wine) - but only if directx.
(these problems reduced when I dismantled laptop and cleaned it thoroughly, so 
I suspect heat warning became a dbus fatal error)

note that problem is inconsistent,

There is one 100% way to reproduce it:
dbus fatal error

I'm going to experiment with that more when I finish my current
contracts.   Currently I try to avoid the behaviours that trigger the
crashes as I don't want to lose more work.

There is no difference between this Xorg.log and one from a crash - from
what I've seen.   The only message I remember seeing is a session close
- so it's likely not X itself that's doing this, although it could be
the i865 driver which isn't 100% although it's improving of late.

log file excerpt included above is all information available, without
compromising security.   (although I can provide longer excerpt
including whole boot sequence, if you wish)

Any suggestions at all on how to debug dbus problems, gnome-session
problems and power problems - WITHOUT disruption to the system - would
be appreciated.

[Bug 341344] [NEW] session crashing randomly - may be power management issue

2009-03-11 Thread Teunis Peters
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-session

Likely gnome-session
session crashes - closing X session and logging out - randomly (somewhat).
Sometimes happens in lid close.
Sometimes happen in resume (from suspend)
Sometimes happens when screensaver activates
Sometimes just happens (I don't see anything - all of a sudden everything 
closes and I'm sent back to login)

suspect power management problem.   Might also be gnome-screensaver.
Note: Intel 965 video chipset on Dell hardware, not well supported -
opengl fails a lot of the time - may also be related.   This is a severe
bug.
