[Bug 324894] Re: "Corrupted low memory at" kernel warning on resume

2015-03-05 Thread danielmewes
Had the same problem on an HP ZBook 15u G2 and Ubuntu 14.04 (Linux
3.16.0-31-generic).

Since HP is officially offering this computer with Ubuntu preinstalled,
I imagine that they are going to fix this with a future BIOS update (the
notebook just got newly introduces).

For now passing memory_corruption_check_size=128K appears to avoid the
issue. Thanks @nutznboltz for the tip!

[Bug 35455] Re: After hibernate, cooling on nc6220 does not restart

2006-07-31 Thread danielmewes
Ok, well it seems that I was actually wrong. The update changes the
fan's behaviour a lot, so I thought the fans would come up again, but
actually they still do not as they should. However, I found out that
only those fans do not response after suspend to RAM or disk (I
experienced the same problem with both methods), which had been switched
on when the system suspends. Thus, the following fix now eventually
really seems to work:

I added the following script to /etc/acpi/suspend.d:
File 85-fan-stop.sh
<-->
#!/bin/sh

modprobe -r thermal

for x in /proc/acpi/fan/*; do
if [ "`grep on $x/state`" ]; then
echo -n 3 > $x/state;
fi
done
<-->

This simply stops all fans before the system is suspended. This may make
the system run a little bit hot when using suspend to disk, since
writing all the pages to disk may take some time and the fans are turned
off then. However it works very well for suspend to RAM.

I also modified /etc/acpi/resume.d/72-acpi-pain.sh, but did not test
yet, if this modification is really necessary. I just commented out the
"modprobe -r thermal", "modprobe -r fan" and "modprobe fan" lines as
well the "NNGH FAN HATE" part.

The given fix did not work for me, but I found that the newest HP BIOS
ROM finally fixed all fan problems for my nx8220. Just as a tipp for all
the people who still burn their fingers and mainboards because of not
correctly working fans...

I just found this patch: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/2/17/211

[Bug 74877] Re: regression: suspend does not work on hp nw8240 with feisty

2007-03-04 Thread danielmewes
Okay, the patch already was in the kernel source (release 2.6.20-9) and it is 
also enabled in linux-image-2.6.20-9-generic. However it does not seem to help 
for this problem.
I also disabled the libata_piix driver completely, so the PATA only piix was 
used again, but resuming still did not work.

The following procedure fixed the problem for me:
1. Disable the libata_piix kernel module (CONFIG_ATA_PIIX)
2. Apply the patch from 
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-ide&m=116916643921306 , one line of the 
patch fails, it can easily be patched manually (just a line in the IDE makefile)
3. Activate the new CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEACPI kernel option
4. Compile and install the kernel and create a matching Initrd 
(update-initramfs)

Standby now works like before and the new kernel finally fixes bug
#21574 (speakers do not work after suspending).

Unfortunately I have no idea how this could make its way into Feisty. Disabling 
libata_piix is probably not an option, since it also covers Intel SATA 
controllers, which are not covered by the plain old piix driver. Still, the IDE 
ACPI patch should be added! This (or a similiar) patch has been in Ubuntu 
kernels for some time now and I cannot understand why it was not applied to the 
new Feisty kernels anymore.
The right way probably is to fix this libata ACPI code. I think that there is 
some function that is needed on this HP notebooks during resume, that the new 
libata ACPI functions do not call yet. However I don't think that this could 
make its way into Feisty, could it? Unfortunately I don't have the time to get 
into kernel development in the moment :-(

[Bug 21574] Re: Only headphones work after suspend on HP nx8220

2007-03-04 Thread danielmewes
This is finally fixed in kernel 2.6.20 (Feisty)!
However this kernel adds a new problem with suspend/resume on nx8220 and 
similar models: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/74877 that 
can be fixed with some kernel patching.

[Bug 74877] Re: regression: suspend does not work on hp nw8240 with feisty

2007-02-13 Thread danielmewes
The point is, that during version 5.04 I think, an IDE patch was included in 
the Ubuntu kernels (it's not in the official kernel, or at least was not for a 
long time), that calls _STM, _GTM and the like (I don't know what these 
commands exactly do?) to restore the IDE disk state after resuming from suspend 
to RAM, since many HP notebook BIOSes do not do this automatically.
I just tested the Feisty kernel and experienced exactly the same problem with 
my NX8220 (=NC8230) notebook. This is not a bug in the graphics driver resume 
code or some highmem things!
It looks to me as this patch was not yet incorporated into the new libata 
driver. Would be nice if you could port it if its not already available as a 
patch, since this would really make Feisty a no-option for me.

2007-02-18 Thread danielmewes
This bug only effects suspend to RAM, not hibernation, since on
hibernation the BIOS reinitalizes the IDE controller and hard disks. By
the way I found the patch, or at least a patch that does the same thing:
https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=7329939&forum_id=6102

I don't have the new kernel installed at the moment, so no uname -a from
me...

[Bug 671932] Re: Performance drop after suspend/resume cycle

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 656279 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/656279

Øyvind, thank you for that script. The graphics performance issue after suspend 
was bugging me for quite a while (up to a degree where it was considerably less 
fun to use my PC) and the disabling HT cores (+ reenabling them afterwards) 
instantly fixes the issue for me! :-)
I am using an HP Elitebook 8440p with an NVIDIA Quadro NVS 3100M by the way. 
Ubuntu 10.04, 64 Bit.

[Bug 269904] Re: Screen refresh problems with nvidia on intrepid

2009-03-15 Thread danielmewes
I was finally able to completely circumvent this problem by enabling *both* 
indirect rendering and loose bindings for compiz (by modifying the appropriate 
line in /usr/bin/compiz). Compiz runs really fast now (a lot (!) faster than 
with indirect-rendering only and even more faster than without both).
I'm running an unsupported combination of software versions however, so could 
someone check whether this works with plain Intrepid, too?

I am running:
Ubuntu 8.04 with stock compiz 0.7.4
Nvidia driver 180.29, installed manually
on a Quadro FX 370 (dual monitor setup)

Without loose-bindings I especially had very bad performance when
running OpenGL applications with compiz enabled.

I now have in my /usr/bin/compiz:
build_args()
{
[...]
if check_nvidia; then
if [ "x$INDIRECT" != "xyes" ]; then
COMPIZ_OPTIONS="$COMPIZ_OPTIONS --loose-binding 
--indirect-rendering "
fi
fi
}
