[Bug 115267] Re: [nvidia-glx-new] CharacterConsole+Compiz/Beryl crash
Carlo: Do you actually need both of the parameters? Does using options nvidia NVreg_RegistryDwords=PerfLevelSrc=0x alone resolve the problem? The only information I could really find about the PerlLevelSrc parameter was in this thread: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=80888 . It seems that it is set in the Windows driver .inf files provided by some laptop manufacturers. So far it is only reported to help laptop machines (and it does not necessarily make a difference in every case). Further, it is unclear what side effects this parameter might have (e.g. can it damage hardware?) and what purpose it serves aside from GPU tuning... -- [nvidia-glx-new] CharacterConsole+Compiz/Beryl crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115267 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

First question: the second line is probably the needed one, the other being metioned in the beryl troubleshooting nVidia section as a workaround for suspend2disk to work properly (I have a HP nw9440 laptop), but I can't reboot and perform the test at the moment, sorry. Second: here is the output to the required command: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation G71 [Quadro FX 1500M] [10de:029b] (rev a1) BTW, before modifying /etc/modprobe.d/options I upgraded to the latest nvidia drivers 100.14.09, and the problem was still there -- [nvidia-glx-new] CharacterConsole+Compiz/Beryl crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115267 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 115267] Re: [nvidia-glx-new] CharacterConsole+Compiz/Beryl crash
Problem solved! It amounted at adding these two lines to /etc/modprobe.d/options options nvidia NVreg_SoftEDIDs=0 options nvidia NVreg_RegistryDwords=PerfLevelSrc=0x this also solves screen flickering and other strange hangs which occur with the generic kernel.
