Can you enable the hardy-proposed and hardy-updates repositories, install EnvyNG so as to install the latest release of the driver? If it doesn't solve the problem, you should report the problem here: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=14 ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110125 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 110125] Re: [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed
I'm having the same problem with ALL GL/GLX apps: screen savers, games, compiz... I have a fully updated Hardy installation, using an nVidia GeForce 5200 AGP card w/ 128MB RAM. I'm using the EnvyNG nvidia installation & drivers since using the standard restricted nvidia drivers was a disaster (screen locked in at 800x600 res and the monitor wasn't properly recognized. The EnvyNG installation seems to have effectively installed and configured the video system utilizing the latest drivers, but the GL functions simply don't work. As an example, when I was using the generic 'nv' video driver immediately after performing a clean Hardy install, all of the screen savers worked, but some were very slow. After installing the nVidia drivers utilizing EvnyNG none of the GL screen savers worked. Also, I recently checked the '3D' tab on the included Chess program (which was working just fine in 2D); the Chess program attempts to load, and then immediately shuts down without showing the game board. I suspect the problem is with software, and not hardware, since this is a dual-boot machine and the accelerated video in WinXP works perfectly. -- [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110125 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 110125] Re: [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed
Hmm, ok sounds like for at least some people the issue is resolved. emk2203, I'm curious if you have the crash after fully updating Hardy - you mentioned upgrading -nvidia, do you mean to Hardy's latest or to a newer version from nVidia? Merlin, I can't say for sure if you have the same issue as everyone else, although it does sound roughly similar. It's possible we have more than one bug going around though. Anyway, given that it seems the issue has resolved for at least some people, I'm going to drop the milestone. I suspect we have a case of a core main issue plus some similar secondary issues, and that the main issue resolved. ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu Hardy) Target: ubuntu-8.04.1 => None -- [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110125 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have "a" bugnot sure if it is the same thingbut when switching hacks my x-server restarts ever since i installed the nvidia drivers. It appears to be the GL hacks that r doing it. And on a side note, games that worked before are now not working. Therefore i believe that whatever problem there is it is affecting the other GL apps.

RE: [Bug 110125] Re: [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed
Oh yes, I have. As of yesterday, it is still happening. I have the latest Hardy, but after some hours of leaving the computer unattended, the process compiz.real gobbles up a shitload of memory (~ 0,5 - 1 GB) and the X system gets so slow that it's unusable. My quick fix is to switch to the console, kill -9 compiz.real and switch back to X, but it this not satisfying. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pat Leamon Sent: Wednesday, April 30, 2008 10:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Bug 110125] Re: [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed I haven't seen it since release - the only time I saw it was straight after the upgrade from gutsy. -- [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110125 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110125 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

per the description, then, milestoning this for 8.04.1 rather than 8.04 and targetting to hardy. ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Target: ubuntu-8.04 => ubuntu-8.04.1 -- [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110125 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The one other piece of information needed to begin troubleshooting is a backtrace.

[Bug 110125] Re: [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed
Setting to Critical priority due to large number of dupes. It has a fairly obvious and effective workaround (disable xscreensaver) but it is likely whatever the root cause is may afflict other GL apps as well. I think this is unlikely to receive a fix until 8.04.1 at the earliest, but I'm milestoning to 8.04 so we can give it some priority attention before Hardy to at least understand *why* it is failing. Once we understand the issue and have a plan of attack, the bug can be re- milestoned to 8.04.1 for the actual fix. ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Critical Target: None => ubuntu-8.04 -- [nvidia] GL xscreensavers crashed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110125 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
