I caught it with 2.6.34-rc4, and looks like it happens every third time after
suspend to ram.

 I'm not aware of any trick to make both nv and nouveau working.
 Maybe there should be a way to prevent nv (and vesa, but not
 fbdev) from loading when KMS is in use?

Yeah, there was a brief discussion about that recently:
http://people.freedesktop.org/~cbrill/dri-log/index.php?date=2010-03-21channel=nouveaushow_html=truehighlight_names=update=Updatedate=2010-03-21

I haven't heard anything about it since.

   
   I wrote a patch for vesa on bugzilla[1] to do exactly that; a similar
   one for nv wouldn't be hard.
   
   [1] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26878
  
  Yay, thanks.
  I adapted it to xf86-video-nv and it works!
  Now we need to trick Aaron to apply it.
  
  Aaron: please, please, please apply.
  :)
 
 Sorry for the slow reply.  It sucks that this is necessary, but I guess it
 makes sense.  Comments below.

Thanks for a reply!

[Nouveau] [Bug 27706] New: Blank screen and Error referencing VRAM ctxdma: -12 on NV44A with ubuntu lucid beta 2 (worked in alpha 3)

2010-04-16 Thread bugzilla-daemon
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27706

   Summary: Blank screen and Error referencing VRAM ctxdma: -12
on NV44A with ubuntu lucid beta 2 (worked in alpha 3)
   Product: xorg
   Version: 7.5
  Platform: x86 (IA32)
OS/Version: Linux (All)
Status: NEW
  Severity: critical
  Priority: medium
 Component: Driver/nouveau
AssignedTo: nouveau@lists.freedesktop.org
ReportedBy: mossroy.moss...@gmail.com
 QAContact: xorg-t...@lists.x.org


Created an attachment (id=35110)

Dmesg on ubuntu lucid beta 2 installed (does not work)

I can't start the ubuntu lucid beta 2 liveCD on a computer with a Nvidia
GeForce 6200 (NV44A rev A1) : the screen stays blank after booting.
It works properly with a ubuntu lucid alpha 3 liveCD (which probably uses a
previous version of nouveau) and ubuntu karmic liveCD (which uses nv driver)

I managed to install the beta 2 on this computer through the alternate CD : the
behavior is the same when booting on the hard drive.
I installed all the updates (as of 16th april 2040) : same behavior

I experience the precise same behavior with Fedora live : Fedora 12 live boots
correctly (but relies on nv driver), Fedora 13 beta live gives the same blank
screen (and also uses nouveau driver).

I think this is a regression in the nouveau graphic driver : the version
bundled with lucid alpha 3 works, the one with lucid beta 2 (or fedora 13 beta)
does not.
Here is an excerpt of the dmesg on beta 2 :
  nouveau :03:00.0: RAMHT space exhausted. ch=0
  nouveau :03:00.0: Error referencing VRAM ctxdma: -12
  nouveau :03:00.0: gpuobj -12

This error message does not appear when using lucid alpha 3.

I found that adding nouveau.noaccel=1 as a boot parameter is a workaround,
both on ubuntu lucid beta 2 and on fedora 13 beta

My motherboard is a Asus A7N8X-E deluxe, on which a GeForce 6200 video card
(branded MSI) is in the AGP port.

You will find attached the dmesg of :
- ubuntu lucid beta 2 installed (does not work)
- ubuntu lucid alpha 3 liveCD (works)
- ubuntu lucid beta 2 installed, with nouveau.noaccel=1 (works)

lspci gives :
03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV44A [Geforce 6200] (rev
a1)

I first opened this bug on ubuntu launchpad :

It might be worth to understand why that changed first, before looking at the
rest. Unless someone tells you otherwise :)

I suppose you can exclude xorg and xorg nouveau driver, since you apparently
get that problem right when nouveau initializes, before touching X.

There remains libdrm nouveau and the kernel. The problem is that these are
ubuntu packages, and to people external to ubuntu (like all nouveau developers,
and many users, like me), it's not easy to know exactly what code that is
using.

If you could point out the equivalent upstream code, it would help.
For libdrm : http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/
For drm/ttm :
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=drm-next
For nouveau drm : http://cgit.freedesktop.org/nouveau/linux-2.6/

More importantly, how do we know that this latest upstream code would not work
for you ?

Thanks Xavier and Marcin for your quick answers.

Xavier, I had noticed the extra lines regarding AGP x8 (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/nouveau/+bug/564617/comments/3).
What is sure is that I did not touch anything inside the PC, or in the BIOS.

Is there an easy way to test with an upstream version of nouveau? I might run a
liveCD, or even install another OS if it's really necessary.

Marcin,
I tried the video=vga16fb:off parameter : I can see the ubuntu logo, but then
I only see grey lines on the screen (see attached photo)
Then, the PC seems frozen : I can only do a hard power-off
You'll find the dmesg and corresponding kern.log attached

Regarding the version number of libdrmnouveau1, normally ubuntu uses a prefix
for the version upstream, and a suffix for the patches it applies on it.
So, I suppose it is based on version 2.4.18 (
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/tag/?id=2.4.18 )
The changelog of ubuntu patches are there :
http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/libd/libdrm/libdrm_2.4.18-1ubuntu3/changelog
The difference between version ubuntu2 and ubuntu3 seems to be the
correction of this bug :
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/547124
, that did not apparently affect me, and that corresponds to the following
commit :
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/commit/?id=df32c307e8f81b46ee8aa4dd7222fc18f175bbb3
Not sure if it's really relevant in our case.

Maybe version alpha3 of ubuntu had the option nouveau.noaccel=1 by default,
and not in version beta2? Which would explain the difference of behavior even
if the versions are very close.

Regarding the kernel used by ubuntu, the changelog is there :
http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/l/linux/linux_2.6.32-21.32/changelog

There has been a few changes that consist in disabling acceleration for
specific cards. See for example
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/544088
Well, disabling acceleration is a workaround in my opinion, not a real fix...
