[Bug 1930733] Re: Kernel oops with the 460.80 and 465.27 drivers when using DP, but not with HDMI

2021-07-21 Thread Daniel Dadap
> should it fail how can I get the log when my system completely locks
up and dies?

My understanding of the bug is that it occurs when the NVIDIA driver
tries to bring up the DisplayPort link on certain DisplayPort monitors.
You should be able to drive the system in text mode with a failing
driver, to capture the log. One way to do that would be to add
"systemd.unit=multi-user.target" to the kernel command line. (When the
bootloader menu comes up, edit the boot options and add this argument to
the line that starts with 'linux'.) If you happen to have another system
on the same network you can even try SSHing into the system that
reproduces the problem, then start the graphical session manually with
`sudo systemctl isolate graphical`, and if the crash doesn't take down
the SSH session, you ought to be able to generate the log file while the
problem is occurring. (Log files taken while a bug is actively being
reproduced tend to be the most useful.) Depending on the exact nature of
the crash, you may even be able to SSH into a system which has already
crashed, without having to go to the effort of starting it in text mode
first.

> In that eventuality I've only been able to recover by booting an older
kernel with the older drivers. Will that not invalidate the log content
on restart?

It may, or may not. nvidia-bug-report.sh attempts to capture logs from
the previous boot, if they have been retained. If you do find that you
are unable to capture a log file using a driver version which reproduces
the problem, just make sure to note that you captured the log file after
rebooting to a known good driver.

[Bug 1930733] Re: Kernel oops with the 460.80 and 465.27 drivers when using DP, but not with HDMI

2021-07-21 Thread Daniel Dadap
Hello, NVIDIA employee here.

Can those who are still experiencing problems please provide the
following information?

* NVIDIA driver version installed
* NVIDIA GPU model
* Exact model of affected monitor

An nvidia-bug-report.log will capture the driver version and GPU model,
along with some other useful information, though possibly not the
monitor model since the system may be crashing before the EDID can be
read. You can generate an nvidia-bug-report.log file by running `nvidia-
bug-report.sh` as root. This will create a new file named nvidia-bug-
report.log.gz in your current directory.

As for the fix being absent from the release notes, that was an
accidental omission. The fix should be present in 460.91.03 and later,
as well as all publicly released 470 drivers. Unfortunately, the fix did
not make it into 465 before support for the 465 series was discontinued.
We will want to collect the relevant information for anybody still
experiencing problems with DP monitors so that any remaining issues can
be addressed as well.

[Bug 1930937] Re: SRU: Default dependency resolution in Focal pulls in full GNOME Desktop

2021-06-29 Thread Daniel Dadap
Tested in a clean focal chroot. The dependency resolution works as
expected, allowing the package to be installed without pulling in all of
GNOME, but only if the "universe" repository component is enabled. If I
have only "main" enabled, then dependency resolution fails with the
following:

# apt install screen-resolution-extra
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 screen-resolution-extra : Depends: policykit-1-gnome but it is not installable 
or
gnome-shell but it is not going to be 
installed or
polkit-1-auth-agent
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I'm not sure if there's a reason apt doesn't just fall back to selecting
gnome-shell when policykit-1-gnome isn't available, due to being in a
disabled repository. Perhaps this might be expected behavior, but since
there is a change in behavior compared to how the dependencies were
previously set up, I'm not sure if the change is appropriate for an SRU.
At least for default desktop installations, I imagine the difference
wouldn't be noticeable, since gnome-shell would already be installed.

[Bug 1930937] [NEW] Default dependency resolution in Focal pulls in full GNOME Desktop

2021-06-04 Thread Daniel Dadap
Public bug reported:

In Bionic, screen-resolution-extra has a dependency on policykit-1-gnome
| polkit-1-auth-agent. Focal replaces this with a dependency on gnome-
shell | policykit-1-gnome | polkit-1-auth-agent. As a result, when
install screen-resolution-extra (e.g. as a dependency of nvidia-
settings) on a system that doesn't already have GNOME or another polkit
auth agent installed, the default dependency resolution pulls in a full
GNOME desktop in Focal, while it does not do so under the same
circumstances in Bionic. This can be worked around by explicitly
installing policykit-1-gnome (or another package which provides the
polkit-1-auth-agent virtual package), but it would be nice to not pull
in GNOME by default on a system that doesn't already have it.

[Bug 1905591] Re: no brightness control in {455, 460} after update from 450

2021-01-27 Thread Daniel Dadap
The workaround suggests that there's an interaction between the NVIDIA
driver and another kernel module at play here. Presumably, adding the
NVIDIA kernel modules to the initrd causes them to be loaded before the
other module. Maybe video.ko, which registers its own brightness
handler?

The modeswitch glitch should probably be tracked as a separate issue.
Can somebody who is experiencing this glitch provide an example video?

In newer Ubuntu 18.04 HWE kernels, it is possible for GPU HDA
controllers to be dynamically runtime-suspended if the HDA's

[Bug 1824282] Re: Add a mode that load nvidia.ko only so that we display on intel and do cuda deep learning in NV GPU

2019-06-28 Thread Daniel Dadap
Would it be possible to change the "intel" profile to no longer alias
the nvidia.ko and nvidia-uvm.ko modules to "off"? The blacklisting can
remain, and would prevent the modules from being loaded automatically in
response to the device being present, but wouldn't prevent them from
being explicitly loaded if desired.

Since I imagine the reason for preventing the modules from loading is to
allow the NVIDIA GPU to be turned off via ACPI, would it be possible to
attempt unloading the modules before attempting to shut off the GPU? If
they fail to unload, it's presumably because they're in use, so shutting
off the GPU doesn't make sense, anyway. Going the other way, it could
also be useful to add a udev rule or some other trigger to turn the GPU
back on if it's off and somebody tries to load nvidia.ko.

[Bug 1828084] Re: Kernel modules generated incorrectly when system is localized to a non-English language

2019-06-25 Thread Daniel Dadap
amd64 counts as x86 for the purposes of supported architectures in
Linux, and x86 does have the C version of recordmcount. Comment #3
includes a list of architectures that lack the C version of
recordmcount. Of those architectures, ppc64le is the only one that is
supported by the NVIDIA driver (the test case described in the
reproduction steps). I did try to create a reproduction case independent
of the NVIDIA driver, but was unsuccessful, as simpler kernel modules
failed to cause a panic, and I hadn't isolated what specific behavior of
the NVIDIA driver is problematic when recordmcount fails to run.

One troubleshooting technique you can use to verify whether
recordmcount.pl is working when localization options are set is to
instrument the Kbuild makefiles to record a checksum of the object file
recordmcount is run against before running recordmcount and again after
it has run. If recordmcount fails to run the checksums will be the same.
Note that this is only useful on architectures which use recordmcount.pl
rather than the C version, as the C version has no dependency on parsing
the output of objdump.

[Bug 1831945] [NEW] HDMI/DP audio: ELD not updated on hotplug event

2019-06-06 Thread Daniel Dadap
Public bug reported:

When using HDMI or Displayport audio, the EDID-like Data (ELD) fails to
update properly when hotplugging or hot-unplugging displays. This in
turn prevents tools like the GNOME sound settings control panel from
accurately presenting the system's current audio capabilities.


How reproducible:

Hot plug and hot unplug an audio-capable display and observe the state
of the ELDs, either by directly reading the ELD files in
/proc/asound/card*/eld* or by examining the available audio output
devices in the GNOME sound settings control panel.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log into a desktop session with no audio-capable displays plugged in
2. Plug in an audio-capable display
3. Open the GNOME sound settings control panel


Actual results:

The audio-capable display is not selectable as an output device.


Expected results:

The audio-capable display should be selectable as an output device.


Additional info:

This bug has been fixed upstream with commit
37a3a98ef601f89100e3bb657fb0e190b857028c. Applying this change alone to
the bionic 4.18 HWE kernel is sufficient to allow the expected behavior
to occur. It is likely to be sufficient to fix the same bug, assuming it
exists, in Cosmic, but neither the presence of the bug nor the
sufficiency of the patch were tested. The bug is likely not present in
Disco, but this was not tested.

This behavior was observed on a system with an NVIDIA GPU running the
NVIDIA proprietary driver. The particular NVIDIA GPU on the system is
not currently compatible with Nouveau. It is possible and likely that
this problem is also reproducible on other systems which do have GPUs
that are compatible with Nouveau, and even on systems with HDMI or
Displayport connectors being driven by non-NVIDIA GPUs.

When the ELD fails to update in response to a hotplug event, an update
can be forced by accessing the underlying ALSA codec directly. For
example, playing an audio stream directly via ALSA or even just reading
from the /proc/asound/cardX/codec#Y file will cause the ELD to become
updated. This is of course unnecessary if the patch which fixes the
issue is applied, but it does offer a somewhat simple workaround for
affected users until the patch can be backported.

[Bug 1830975] [NEW] Old style NVIDIA package installs configuration snippet to an unusual location

2019-05-29 Thread Daniel Dadap
Public bug reported:

The old-style NVIDIA package (used prior to Bionic) installs an X
configuration snippet to:

/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf/nvidia-drm-
outputclass.conf

The purpose of this configuration snippet is to configure DRM
OutputClass-based driver matching so that the NVIDIA driver can be
loaded without needing to explicitly configure it. Due to its location,
however, it ends up not being read by the X server.

This isn't a problem in distros before Bionic, since up until Artful,
the X server was patched to add "nvidia" to the X server's own auto-
detected driver list, so the OutputClass-based matching was redundant.
However, if a system running Bionic or newer has an NVIDIA driver
package from Artful or earlier installed, the location of this file is
problematic, as the NVIDIA driver can no longer be autoconfigured from
either the X server's internal driver list nor the OutputClass-based
matching.

Normally, a user wouldn't end up with an old-style driver package on a
newer distro, but one possible scenario which could lead to this
condition is if an NVIDIA driver package is installed via an external
repository (for example, the NVIDIA CUDA repositories) on an Ubuntu
version that uses the older packaging format, then the system is
upgraded to a newer version that uses the newer packaging format. Third
party repositories are disabled as part of the do-release-upgrade
process, and the NVIDIA driver package does not get updated. The
packages continue to function, but the placement of the nvidia-drm-
outputclass.conf file prevents X from selecting the NVIDIA X driver
without explicit configuration.

I have confirmed that moving this file one level up, so that its parent
directory is /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d allows the OutputClass-based
matching to function as expected.

Yes, that's the one. The kbuild maintainer modified the commit message
to add a maintainer Signed-off-by line.

I would say that any kernel versions that are shipped for actively
maintained versions of Ubuntu that support hardware platforms that don't
use the C version of recordmcount:

for file in arch/*/Kconfig; do if ! grep '^[[:space:]]*select 
HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT $file > /dev/null; then echo $file | cut -f2 -d/; fi; done

powerpc
riscv

sh
um
unicore32
xtensa

This particular problem was observed on powerpc, specifically, ppc64le.
Of course, it's up to the Canonical kernel maintainers to decide which
kernels could best benefit from a backport; I just wanted to bring the
issue and fix to Canonical's attention.

[Bug 1828084] [NEW] Kernel modules generated incorrectly when system is localized to a non-English language

2019-05-07 Thread Daniel Dadap
Public bug reported:

When LANG is set to a non-English language with the relevant language
pack installed, Kbuild's recordmcount.pl script fails to function
correctly when building out-of-tree kernel modules on architectures that
do not use the C version of recordmcount (e.g. ppc64le). This can result
in invalid kernel modules being built.

This was due to the non-C version of recordmcount relying on parsing the
output of objdump(1), which can be localized. This is now fixed in the
linux-kbuild tree with the following commit:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-
kbuild.git/commit/?h=kbuild=7b6954a982e7f60af38b835db52a06afc6e4b84c

This commit is not in the torvalds/linux.git tree yet, but it would be
good to backport the change to the Ubuntu kernel, particularly the
linux-headers packages that are used for building out-of-tree kernel
modules.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set LANG to a language other than English (e.g. ja_JP.UTF-8)
2. Make sure that the correct language pack is installed and that localization 
is working; for example, run a command expected to print an error message, like 
`cp` with no additional arguments.
3. Install the NVIDIA GPU driver

Actual results:
The kernel panics when loading the nvidia-modeset kernel module.

Expected results:
The driver should install and load normally.

the signing key is enrolled in the MOK (module loads, no verification
error) and when it is not enrolled in the MOK (module fails to load due
to verification error.) However, the behavior is not quite what I expect
when a module is unsigned. The module fails to load, which is expected,
but there is no error message in dmesg indicating a missing key, which
can make it tricky to determine why the module failed to load, since the
failure message printed by modprobe/insmod is simply "Operation not
permitted". (It seems the ENOKEY failure is not getting propagated to
the user-facing tool.)

Just to confirm, this is with the 4.18.0-12-generic x86_64 kernel from
cosmic-proposed.

2018-10-26 Thread Daniel Dadap
Cool, glad you were able to track down the problems. Sorry if my report
that module signature verification was disabled and couldn't be re-
enabled was misleading. That's what I thought was happening; I didn't
think to imagine that the enforcement of the "valid signature required"
policy wasn't taking place at all.

  On a system with Ubuntu 18.10, with secure boot enabled, and a key
  enrolled in the MOK database, I am observing the following peculiar
  behaviors:
  
  * Signature verification appears to be disabled, and cannot be enabled again. 
It appeared to be enabled previously, as loading of unsigned modules was 
failing, and `mokutil --enable-validation` runs without incident; however, upon 
the next boot when attempting to confirm the change, MokManager prints an error 
message "Unable to delete Secure Boot state" after completing the password 
challenge.
  * As a result of signature verification being disabled, modules signed with 
untrusted keys taint the kernel instead of failing to load outright.
  * Regardless of signature verification being enabled or not, it seems that 
the key enrolled in the MOK is not being used for validating kernel module 
signatures. Modules signed with the key still fail the signature verification 
test and taint the kernel, even though the key is visible in the output of 
`mokutil --list-enrolled`, and testing the key with `mokutil --test-key` shows 
that it's enrolled. Also, a message acknowledging the key appears in dmesg:

[Bug 1760704] [NEW] ld has a hard time finding development symlinks in the versioned directories

2018-04-02 Thread Daniel Dadap
Public bug reported:

The packages install the driver libraries, including symlinks intended
for the dynamic linker, to versioned directories (e.g.
/usr/lib/nvidia-390). The dynamic loader is configured to search these
directories via /etc/ld.so.conf.d; however, this configuration doesn't
affect the dynamic linker, which won't find the NVIDIA driver libraries
unless the appropriate -L flag is set.

For example, it would be nice to be able to link an application that
uses libnvcuvid.so without having to set e.g. -L/usr/lib/nvidia-390 on
the command line, since doing so would require finding out the right
driver version number to set in the -L parameter.

[Bug 1220426] Re: [nvidia-prime]Freeze while using touchpad

2014-09-12 Thread Daniel Dadap
It's unlikely to be due a change in the NVIDIA driver, since we (NVIDIA)
have not yet identified a root cause for the touchpad freeze.

As this problem is highly sporadic, and can take several hours in some
cases to reproduce, if it reproduces at all, we should probably wait for
more confirmations that it is no longer reproducible in Utopic before
concluding that it has indeed been fixed there.

2014-03-09 Thread Daniel Dadap
Moving this bug from nvidia-prime to nvidia-graphics-drivers-331, since
the fix goes in the NVIDIA driver, and not nvidia-prime.

FWIW, the attached patch has been formatted for use with the NVIDIA .run
installer's --apply-patch option, but it should be usable for DKMS,
since DKMS uses patchlevel -p1. The patch includes a conftest so that
the calls to the new pm_vt_switch_*() functions will only be compiled if
the kernel actually provides them, so you don't need to worry about
PATCH_MATCH, and can just apply the patch unconditionally.

** Package changed: nvidia-prime (Ubuntu) = nvidia-graphics-drivers-331
(Ubuntu)

[Bug 1210077] Re: Screen freeze and garbled after resume from suspend

2014-03-06 Thread Daniel Dadap
It looks like this is a consequence of recent changes in the kernel that
allow the system to optionally skip VT switches on suspend and resume:

24576d2 drm/i915: enable VT switchless resume v3
​3cf2667 fb: add support for drivers not needing VT switch at suspend/resume 
time
f43f627 PM: make VT switching to the suspend console optional v3

The kernel will not skip VT switches if no drivers register their VT
switch requirements through pm_vt_switch_required(); however, if any
drivers do so, and all of them indicate that VT switches are not
required, they will be skipped. In the PRIME case, this is exactly what
happens: the Intel driver registers itself as not needing VT switches,
and the NVIDIA driver does not register its VT switch requirements one
way or the other (the NVIDIA driver *does* need a VT switch on
suspend/resume), so the kernel skips the VT switch, resulting in
corruption when attempting to restore the NVIDIA X screen.

The NVIDIA driver can be updated to pm_vt_switch_required() (I verified
with a quick spot check that doing so restores the desired behavior:
more testing will be needed before this change can be made officially);
in the meantime, it is possible to work around this issue by adding
'no_console_suspend' to the kernel command line.

2014-03-06 Thread Daniel Dadap
@Alberto: that's essentially the change which I tested successfully on a
laptop I have which reproduces the issue, but some of my colleagues have
suggested calling into pm_vt_switch_*() elsewhere in the driver. I would
prefer if you could wait for an official patch and/or driver update,
which we'll make available after the change has been properly reviewed
and tested at NVIDIA.

[Bug 1282796] [NEW] prime-xconfig can write an invalid BusID string

2014-02-20 Thread Daniel Dadap
Public bug reported:

The BusID string created by prime-xconfig could be incorrect in any of
the following cases:

a) Any numeric component of the bus ID is greater than 9: prime-xconfig will 
write a hexadecimal value, but X will parse it as decimal.
b) The system has more than one PCI domain: `lspci -n` will show the PCI 
domain, which is normally hidden on systems with a single PCI domain. This 
breaks the formatting assumptions made by nv_get_id() about which fields are in 
which position.

Besides the potential correctness issues, the generated BusID string is
missing the following recommended (but optional) information:

a) Bus type. According to xorg.conf(5) this should be PCI:
b) PCI domain: omission of this field could lead to problems on systems with 
multiple PCI domains

A patch against nvidia-prime 0.5.5 from Trusty is attached. The version
on github seems to be behind that version by quite a bit.

** Affects: nvidia-prime (Ubuntu)

2014-02-20 Thread Daniel Dadap
Note that X can parse hexadecimal values in the BusID string if they're
prepended with 0x, since xf86ParsePciBusString() uses atoi(3) to parse
each field; however, the comment at the top of xf86ParsePciBusString()
explicitly states that a decimal value is expected.

[Bug 1248642] Re: dynamic library inconsistencies with OpenGL/C++

2014-01-14 Thread Daniel Dadap
Hi Alberto,

One of our GL driver engineers looked into this a bit, and it actually
seems to be a linker regression that is exposed when linking an
application against the Mesa libGL, and then running it against the
NVIDIA one. He is gathering some more information before filing a bug,
but in the mean time, please find attached a test case demonstrating the
linker bug, which doesn't involve either the Mesa libGL or the NVIDIA
one. See the README in the tarball for details.

When bisecting binutils in an attempt to identify the regression, our
engineer found that commit commit
b64fb44af4f416fbbbda3de03fcfff61d80c841c (Also track weak references)
actually introduced a link time error when attempting to link the test
executable:

ld: /tmp/cc3K1rHK.o: undefined reference to symbol 'pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.2.5'
ld: note: 'pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.2.5' is defined in DSO 
//lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 so try adding it to the linker command

Not to my knowledge: that changelog entry refers to adding an additional
interface via the NV-CONTROL API to the existing backlight
functionality. The problem is that the existing backlight functionality
is now broken on some laptops, so it doesn't make a difference whether
it's exposed through a new API or not.

[Bug 1220426] Re: [nvidia-prime]Freeze while using touchpad

2013-11-07 Thread Daniel Dadap
Sorry, I don't have any ideas. I don't think we've seen anything like
this either; we'd probably need a machine that uses the same touchpad or
touchpad driver.

If the Nouveau driver also supports the RandR 1.4 provider source
capability, it might be an interesting experiment to configure PRIME
with Nouveau - modesetting to see if it's a generic interaction between
the touchpad driver and RandR 1.4. Alternatively, it might be useful to
attempt configuring an X screen on the Intel GPU using the modesetting
driver and no offloading, to see if it's a general interaction between
the touchpad driver and the modesetting X driver. That should be a lot
easier to set up.

Or... another possibility would be to try configuring the offloading
with the Intel driver as the provider output instead of the modesetting
driver. I can't remember the specific problems we ended up having with
the Intel driver that led us to recommend the modesetting driver in the
README instead, but if the Intel driver works as an output for you, and
the problem is due to an interaction between the modesetting and
touchpad drivers, then this may be a way to avoid the problem.

These are all just wild guesses though; I don't have any good ideas as
to why this might be happening.

[Bug 1241745] Re: [regression] Changing the screen brightness does not work anymore in 319.xx

2013-11-07 Thread Daniel Dadap
Sorry, at the moment we don't have an ETA for a fix. It's not likely to
be fixed in the immediate future. I've added a note to the bug report on
the NVIDIA bug tracker as a reminder to update this Launchpad thread
when we have a fix in hand.

The only workaround I'm currently aware of is to use an older driver,
but older drivers may not be compatible with newer X servers and
kernels. The 304.xx series is maintained as a legacy branch, so it would
be compatible with newer kernel / X server versions, and unless your
hardware is especially new, there's a good chance that a 304.xx driver
will work for you. The recently released 304.116 driver, for example, is
compatible with Xorg up to 1.14 and Linux up to 3.12.

[Bug 1210077] Re: Screen freeze and gabled after resume from suspend

2013-11-03 Thread Daniel Dadap
It's not explicitly stated anywhere in this bug report, but due to the
bug being assigned to nvidia-prime and the attached bug reports
apparently coming from systems with PRIME configured, can it be assumed
that this bug happens specifically on systems with RandR 1.4 display
offloading configured? Does anybody have images of the corruption?

I'm assuming the corruption is observed with the default Unity desktop.
Does it also occur with non-composited desktops? (e.g. unity-2d, xfce4

The root cause of this issue has not yet been investigated, so there's

[Bug 1057093] Re: Installing nvidia-current should blacklist gfxpayload

2012-10-09 Thread Daniel Dadap
Hi Steve,

While the NVIDIA driver often happens to work with consoles other than
the standard VGA text mode console without any user-visible symptoms,
any console configuration besides VGA text mode is not supported by the
driver, and use of any alternative consoles is directly linked, in many
cases, to stability problems and graphical corruption.

Here are some recent examples of issues users have encountered as a
result of using framebuffer consoles with the NVIDIA driver; these
symptoms were observed with a framebuffer console present, and absent
when using a VGA text mode console on the same system:

- Complete graphics freeze in some situations - recoverable by restarting X.
- Inability to restore console after suspend/resume.
- Scribbling of data from the console on top of the X screen driven by the 
primary GPU.

Users shouldn't be exposed to such issues in the name of graphical boot
splashes.

[Bug 1057093] [NEW] Installing nvidia-current should blacklist gfxpayload

2012-09-26 Thread Daniel Dadap
Public bug reported:

The NVIDIA driver does not interact well with consoles other than plain
VGA text consoles, such as vesafb. NVIDIA recommends that users run VGA
text consoles in conjunction with the NVIDIA driver.

Many distributions, such as Ubuntu, enable a framebuffer console by
default. It appears that Ubuntu has a mechanism (via update-grub-
gfxpayload) to blacklist the framebuffer console for specific hardware.
It appears that the nvidia-current package includes a gfxpayload rules
file, which includes a (commented out) example rule to blacklist the
framebuffer console for all NVIDIA devices.

I confirmed that after installing the nvidia-current package and
rebooting, the system was using a vesafb framebuffer console. I edited
/usr/share/nvidia-current/nvidia-current.grub-gfxpayload and uncommented
the example rule, ran update-grub-gfxpayload, rebooted, and confirmed
that the system was using a VGA text console.

This rule should be enabled by default as part of installing the nvidia-
current package.

 At an above linked forum thread, they were able to reproduce this bug
on a quadro fx4600. They are hoping to fix it this month, but I'd guess
it will be next month. The thread is now password protected.

Sorry if there is any confusion, but the issue I believe you are
referring to, which we do have an internal reproduction of, is not known
to necessarily be the same issue as what people are describing here. We
believe that some people on this thread might be affected by this issue,
but as I said earlier, the reports on this thread conflict with each
other on many levels, and at this time, I find it hard to believe that
everybody reporting here is actually experiencing exactly the same
problem.

This is why, despite the seemingly similar reports here, it is important
that as much detail about the specific problem each person is
experiencing be provided.  I should note that the reproduction we have
in house of the issue that we believe may be related to some of the
reports here is on a single system so far: attempts to reproduce the
problem on other systems so far have failed; we do not yet understand
what is specific to this system that allows it to reproduce the issue
while others do not. The person who eventually reproduced the issue
internally went through dozens of systems before finding the one that
finally reproduced it.

Also, the issue we have reproduced internally has specific reproduction
steps. The reports here lack good reproduction steps. For reference, the
specific reproduction steps given are:

Repro steps (A): 
1. Open Firefox and play video from the link 
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/vidtemplate-engage-with-flash.html 
2. Make it full screen 
3. Just keep moving the mouse cursor over the video; after some time, the X 
server will crash. 

Repro steps (B): 
1. Open 4 to 5 seperate Firefox windows and play youtube HD videos 
2. Make sure to view with large player (no need to make it fullscreen) 
3. After some time (say for 3 to 5min), we can observe an X server crash. 

This is reproducible regardless of whether or not VDPAU is used.

[Bug 973096] Re: Nvidia driver causes xorg crash

2012-07-19 Thread Daniel Dadap
@natew: NVIDIA does not have access to the nvnews.net forum at this
time, either. I was not directly involved in the attempts to reproduce
the issue described above, but as reported by the person who did
reproduce this issue, we did try several systems with chips that are
similar to the GeForce 285m, without success.

I see that you're the original reporter of this bug on launchpad, and
you have posted a backtrace from gdb captured during the crash. Thanks
for that, but to make the backtrace more readable, do you think you
could capture another one with debugging symbols installed for the X
server, and with the DSO load base of nvidia_drv.so within X captured?

[Bug 973096] Re: Nvidia driver causes xorg crash

2012-06-22 Thread Daniel Dadap
Hi everybody,

Like I said earlier, I've personally been using Precise with Unity on
one of my main test machines since the alpha stage, and haven't seen any
X crashes that weren't due to bugs that have since been fixed, and I
certainly haven't seen random, frequent X crashes like what seems to be
described here. That machine has its drivers and GPUs swapped
frequently, and for as long as I have been using Precise, I have always
used 295 or later drivers on it. (Compiz does seem to crash frequently,
but it always recovers, without disturbing any of the applications or
windows I have open.)

In addition to my own personal experience, which is obviously a tiny
sample, the driver goes through extensive automated and manual testing
on many different hardware configurations, and on a variety of
distributions, including Ubuntu 12.04. We haven't seen any issues that
cause X to crash sporadically, as seems to be described here.

With that in mind, we're obviously missing something important that's
required to reproduce this bug (if it is even just a single bug: it's
hard to tell, since the symptom is fairly generic). If we can collect as
much detail as possible from everybody who is affected, that would help
us understand what is happening better. The more information you
provide, the better our chances for reproducing the issue at NVIDIA.
Please provide as many of the following as possible:

1) An nvidia-bug-report.log file, generated immediately after a crash. This can 
be generated by running the script `nvidia-bug-report.log.sh`, which is 
included as part of the driver install. The script requires superuser 
privileges to collect system information, so you should run it with sudo. The 
script will save a file called nvidia-bug-report.log.gz to your current working 
directory.
2) A detailed description of what you were doing at the time of the crash.
3) If you are familiar with using gdb, stack traces from the crashing server, 
with X debug symbols installed, would be very helpful. If you're not familiar 
with gdb, but want to try to provide a stack trace anyway, you can try 
following these steps:
a) Install X debug symbols (sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-core-dbg)
b) Start your desktop session, as normal
c) For good measure, capture the DSO load base of the NVIDIA driver, in 
case it shows up in the stack trace of the crashing server. (grep nvidia_drv.so 
/proc/`pidof X`/maps) - you may need to do this as root. Stash this information 
away, and if nvidia_drv.so shows up in your backtrace when you get one, submit 
it along with everything else.
d) Log into your system *FROM ANOTHER MACHINE* and attach a debugger to the 
already running X server (gdb Xorg `pidof X`): it's important that you do this 
from another machine over ssh, because after the debugger is attached, X will 
be frozen until you continue. If you start the debugger from a VT on the same 
machine, when X crashes later, it will be frozen, and you probably won't be 
able to switch to your VT running the debugger
e) After the debugger is attached, type continue (or just c) at the gdb 
prompt and hit enter
f) Use your system, leaving the debugger attached the whole time. If X 
crashes, the debugger will stop. Go to your machine running the debugger, and 
type backtrace (or just bt) and hit enter to get a backtrace at the time of 
your crash. If the backtrace is long, you may have to hit enter a few more 
times to see the rest of it. Copy and paste this backtrace, and submit it along 
with the nvidia-bug-report.log.

It does sound like some boards are affected, and some are not, though
the boards reported so far don't have a whole lot in common with each
other. We will do our best to match the configurations reported here, in
hopes of reproducing this crash. Thanks in advance for your help. In the
meantime, for those who are affected, it does sound like unity-2d is
more stable, so perhaps you can switch to unity-2d as a temporary
workaround while waiting for this issue to be resolved.

Alberto, has anybody at Canonical been able to reproduce this?

[Bug 973096] Re: Nvidia driver causes xorg crash

2012-06-12 Thread Daniel Dadap
Hi Alberto,

There seem to be a lot of reports here, and it's hard to tell whether
they're all related. We are currently investigating reports of a
regression with very recent versions of Flash where the X server can
crash when playing videos, which it sounds like many of the users here
are reporting, but there are many other reports here which sound
completely unrelated to Flash, including the post from the original
reporter.

The root cause of the Flash regression is not yet known, but in the
meantime, we have found that it's possible to work around this
particular issue by disabling Flash's use of VDPAU for hardware
acceleration of video playback.

It sounds like a lot of people here are experiencing general stability
problems with Unity and the NVIDIA driver, and using other desktop
sessions, older drivers, or different GPU hardware/drivers avoids these
issues. I haven't personally seen issues like this on any of my machines
running Unity on Precise, nor am I aware of any reports like this coming
from our internal testing on various distributions, including Ubuntu.

I understand that the reports are of crashes which are random and
sporadic in nature, but any efforts to isolate specific workflows or
actions that seem to trigger the crashes or at least make it more likely
that X or the desktop session will crash so that these problems can be
reproduced on demand will make it much easier to investigate what is
happening. If there appear to be multiple problems that share similar
symptoms (Nvidia driver causes xorg crash can describe a multitude of
issues), they should preferably be separated out into distinct bug
reports. (It also seems like at least some people on this bug report are
reporting issues with non-NVIDIA drivers and/or hardware: these reports,
at least, definitely don't belong in an Nvidia driver causes xorg
crash report.)

[Bug 982485] Re: nvidia 295.40 breaks unity 3d

2012-04-16 Thread Daniel Dadap
Are the other affected users also running GeForce 6200 or similar
boards?

As an experiment, try reverting the security patch here:
ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/patches/security/CVE-2012-0946/

You should be able to do this without reinstalling the whole driver by
manually reverting the patch in /usr/src/nvidia-current-295.40 and then
rebuilding just the kernel module using DKMS. (May want to have X
stopped / module unloaded while doing this.)

GeForce 6xxx series isn't susceptible to the vulnerability.

2012-04-16 Thread Daniel Dadap
Effenberg, I think you're experiencing a different set of problems than
the original reporters, who have a regression in 295.40 compared to
295.33.

What's your display configuration? If you have multiple large displays,
or multiple displays with different resolutions, it is sometimes
necessary to stay in the maximum performance state at all times. Is your
GPU still unable to clock down if you use a single display, possibly at
a lower resolution?

2012-03-06 Thread Daniel Dadap
If it's true that similar issues show up in Nouveau, and on AMD boards
(radeon? fglrx?), then it probably makes the most sense to track down
the regression better first. There's still a chance that there could be
bugs in all of the affected drivers that are causing this, but it would
be great if we could begin investigating with some more solid
information about the problem first.

2012-02-17 Thread Daniel Dadap
I don't think it's related. I don't see any reports of X crashing here,
just inability to use external displays. Furthermore, the bug referenced
in that changelog entry was introduced in the 295 timeframe and this bug
is reported in 280.

The issue described here also doesn't seem to exactly match the issue
described on the ubuntuforums.org and forums.nvidia.com links: here it
sounds like neither external display is working, and on the forum posts
it sounds like the control panel is freezing when enabling two external
monitors simultaneously.

The latter is a known bug in the control panel which was fixed in the
290 timeframe. The former sounds like a distinct issue to me, but maybe
I've misunderstood the report. It would be good to clarify with the
original reporter.

For the control panel bug, you don't want to do a full driver update for
that bug, you can just patch the control panel:

Hello all,

Thanks for reporting this bug. Since it seems to be quite active on
launchpad and users are writing in to linux-bugs about it, I just wanted
to mention that NVIDIA is aware of the issue. We've been tracking it for
a while under NVIDIA internal bug number 822418. It does appear to be
specific to older cards in low video memory situations; for integrated
GPUs you can allocate more memory to work around the problem, but for
discrete GPUs this isn't a possibility.

We do not currently have an estimated time for delivery of a fix.

[Bug 613458] Re: After upgrading to latest kernel i get a black screen and cant do anything except ctrl+alt+delete to reboot

2010-08-06 Thread Daniel Dadap
The 256.xx driver should work fine with kernel 2.6.35. I just upgraded
my Maverick test machine to 2.6.35-14 and I'm not having any problems
with the NVIDIA driver.

The logs attached to this bug all appear to have been generated with
2.6.35-11. I'm assuming that the system was rebooted into the older
kernel to generate them.

Can the system be sshed into when the problem occurs? If an nvidia-bug-
report.log can be generated (`sudo nvidia-bug-report.sh`) when the
actual failure is occurring, then it might help us figure out what's
happening.

(If it helps, you might want to configure your system not to start X by
default when booting: edit /etc/init/gdm.conf and comment out the start
on conditions. When you reboot you should be presented with a text
login prompt. This will allow you to, e.g., determine the IP address so
that you can ssh in from another system before starting X. You can then
start X with `sudo start gdm` when you're ready, and if the ssh session
is still responsive, generate an nvidia-bug-report.log.)

[Bug 481599] Re: When using NVIDIA driver wrong resolutions are picked causing *out of range* error from monitors OSD and cannot display analog signal from VGA output to TV because of refresh rates

2010-05-10 Thread Daniel Dadap
The NVIDIA driver builds its list of available modes from several
sources. The most important of these are the display's EDID, and the X
server's list of VESA standard modes.

The ModeValidation NoXServerModes option removes the X server
provided modes from this pool. It seems that in this case, one or more
of the VESA standard modes provided in the X server was incompatible
with the particular display hardware being used. We do try to eliminate
potentially incompatible modes from the server's list by checking them
against the pixel clock and display dimensions in the EDID, but it's
possible to have an incompatible mode pass these tests once in a while.

It would be useful to know exactly which modes are failing, and to have
a little bit more information about what is happening during the mode
validation process. Setting Option ModeDebug true in the Screen
section of xorg.conf will print detailed mode validation information in
the log.

[Bug 578517] [NEW] Hang after pressing enter in VT that X was started from when using startx

2010-05-10 Thread Daniel Dadap
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Steps to reproduce:

1. stop gdm
2. Run startx from a VT
3. Once the desktop is up, open a few windows.
4. Switch back to the VT that you ran startx on
5. Hit enter
6. Switch back to the VT that X is running on

With the nouveau and vesa drivers, what we see is that all windows are
now blank and filled with white, and the GNOME menu and shortcut icons
in the top panel are missing. Other items in the panel appear to be
unaffected and are responsive to input.

With the NVIDIA binary driver, all we see is a black screen with a
cursor.

Not too many will be starting desktop sessions with startx, let alone
switching to the VT they started X from and hitting enter, but this
still probably deserves some investigation.

[Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled

2010-05-03 Thread Daniel Dadap
The recent NVIDIA driver release does not fix this problem. This is a
problem with the X server.

The problem exists upstream and affects a number of other Linux
distributions as well, so it's not specific to Ubuntu.

[Bug 573557] Re: nvidia-current 195.36.15 + kernel 2.6.32 + dual cards crashes system

2010-05-03 Thread Daniel Dadap
Thanks for all the reports. We have tracked this down to a problem with
the kernel's VGA arbiter trying to move VGA ownership to a GPU that
hasn't POSTed. We're working with the developers of the VGA arbiter to
get this fixed in the kernel.

In the meantime, we have a patch which works around the issue by
preventing the VGA arbiter from moving VGA ownership away from the
default device. It is attached as NVIDIA_kernel-195.36.24-682377.diff.
You can apply the patch by downloading the latest installer from
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-ia32-195.36.24.html (32-bit)
or http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-195.36.24.html
(64-bit) and running the installer with the --apply-patch
/path/to/patch.diff option. This will create a patched installer with a
name ending in -custom.run, which will install a driver with this
workaround.

If you're not comfortable with applying the patch yourself, or with
working out the conflicts between the driver as installed by the NVIDIA
installer and the driver as installed by Jockey (the restricted drivers
manager) then please wait until an updated package is available through
Jockey.

[Bug 532436] Re: nvidia driver sometime does not load at boot

2010-04-29 Thread Daniel Dadap
This sounds like it might the same as this:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=563624

Could the affected people please try increasing the GDM timeout
(GdmXserverTimeout in /usr/share/gdm/defaults.conf) to see if it
alleviates the issue?

Hmm, I'll fire up my Ubuntu Lucid system and see if the setting for GDM
timeout has moved somewhere else. It might be in another file, or in
gconf, or who knows where...

2010-04-29 Thread Daniel Dadap
Hi Mike, you're right; I can't seem to figure out where the GDM
configuration went...

Try creating a simple custom.conf file at /usr/share/gdm/custom.conf
containing the following two lines:

[daemon]
GdmXserverTimeout=60

If this doesn't work, it will tell us that either:

1) Your problem is not the GDM timeout issue
2) The version of GDM distributed with Lucid ignores custom.conf
3) Both of the above

[Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled

2010-04-20 Thread Daniel Dadap
This is a known bug in Xorg 1.7.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24986

We did investigate this about a month ago, until we discovered that it
was a bug in X. At the time, it did reproduce in Debian unstable, though
the bug report here suggests that it currently does not. The
freedesktop.org bug report lists an available patch, so it's possible
that Debian unstable has applied this patch or their own. It's also
possible that the server layout that the original poster tested with in
Debian unstable is different: this bug only reproduces when screens with
a higher ID are placed to the left of screens with a lower one.

[Bug 532436] Re: nvidia driver sometime does not load at boot

2010-04-16 Thread Daniel Dadap
I haven't seen this happen during any of my recent testing with Lucid.
If it is a timing issue, it might be easiest to pursue a repro on the
same hardware. I'll try to get access to one of these notebook systems
(Dell Studio XPS 1340) for testing.

In the meantime, if anybody else is experiencing this on other systems,
it would be helpful to know about those systems as well.

Is the nvidia kernel module being rebuilt after the upgrade? It's
expected not to work after upgrading the kernel, if it's not rebuilt for
the new kernel.

[Bug 519538] [NEW] System freeze when logging into GNOME on fresh Lucid install

2010-02-09 Thread Daniel Dadap
Public bug reported:

This is happening on Toshiba Tecra M5 and Tecra M10 laptops.

Started with a fresh install of Karmic, which works normally. Did an
upgrade to Lucid. Upon booting into Lucid, the gdm login screen
displays. On the M5, this screen has scrambled video, which clears up if
I switch to a vt (control-alt-f#) and back. On the M10, it displays
normally. When I try to log into the system, the cursor disappears and
the system becomes completely unresponsive. Both laptops have NVIDIA
discrete graphics. This happens with both the nv and the vesa drivers.
It also happens regardless of what session is selected. (GNOME, Failsafe
GNOME, xterm.)
