I've rediscovered this bug, or something very similar. My system is a Mac Mini Solo with 2GB memory, running Ubuntu 8.10 + recent updates. During the run-up to Intrepid release I had no trouble like this. Now, after a few updates, it's back. The first black screen was while running virtualbox 2.0.4. Just prior to lock-up the screen was flashing intermittently. I turned off compiz and the flashes stopped. Avoiding virtualbox seems prudent for the moment. However, I have had another crash while just playing solitaire. The screen went black, X tried to re-start three times, each time showing the X cursor but nothing else. Eventually a message came up reporting errors from the Xorg.0.log file (I've attached this log, it seems to show X running out of 'ring' space). This kind of error is very damaging because it ruins fundamental confidence in desktop stability - and makes you wonder about the breadth and level of testing that X undergoes. I know it won't happen in OS X so I have to keep that as an alternative. ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log.old" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19735231/Xorg.0.log.old -- lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218334 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 don't know what is fixed in the kernel but it was a problem for me in 2.6.24 and 2.6.25 (on Sidux). No instability at all under kernel 2.6.27, and I haven't changed xserver-xorg-video-intel, so I don't think that was responsible in my case. I'm guessing but this looks like kernel behaviour changed in 2.6.24, then video module was changed to work round that, then kernel behaviour reverted to original, thus allowing original video module to work OK (and probably the newer video module too). -- lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218334 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 Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains.

[Bug 218334] Re: lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2]
I reported bug 226272 some time ago, not realizing this bug was under way. We have very similar symptoms, using very similar hardware and software (though I have experimented with sidux too, and found problems). In bug 226272 I think we found that the flickering stops completely if you disable the DRI module in xorg.conf. However, this can lead to some complete failures of video rendering (e.g. playing a wmv file in ubuntu crashes the desktop, but works OK if DRI is on) and some desktop freezing (e.g. on sidux, not on ubuntu). I am now running a new install of ubuntu 8.04.1 with compiz off (in xorg.conf and desktop prefs) but with DRI on. Fairly stable but still having flashes now and again. Only one black screen in one week of use. Seems that X in Hardy (and recent sidux) is responsible because ubuntu 7.10 and earlier versions of sidux had none of these symptoms. Maybe we will find that the latest version of xorg for intel will solve it, but it would be good to know what is different about that code. -- lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218334 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

Hi all, Looks like there is partial solution for our problem. At least on my mac mini I see no problems. Ironically our fix was last commit before 2.4.0 :-) I've built debian packages for xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.4.0 on hardy, it's kinda dirty build (based on iterpid's 2.3.2) but it's working.

Hello! My Mac mini freezes completely and has to be restarted the hard way. No output to /var/log/dmesg or /var/log/messages before freeze. NumLock key on keyboard doesn't respond anymore. I can ping the machine, but not login via ssh anymore. I'm not sure this is anyhow related to that bug, but what I observed too is: * I cannot do anything in the rEFIt shell (boot loader) (frozen? Wrong keyboard?). * When booting into "Memcheck", memcheck never starts (freezing too?). To install Hardy I did this: run disktool in Mac OS (shrink FS), install rEFIt via Mac OS, sync MBR and GPT via rEFIt, boot and install via hardy's desktop-iso (important was to install boot loader (=grub) to the partition, not to the disk(=MBR)), resync MBR and GPT again. Since then I can start Hardy without problems via rEFIt and grub. I'm using a default (cable) USB PC keyboard and a (cable) USB mouse. The Mac mini is upgraded to 2 GB and has no swap device.

Graphic adapter and LCD monitor are perfectly awaken every morning and problems starts only after systems is being used for a while. BTW: Problem does not exists on GM965 in same setup. This bug must be treated as "show stopper" and I can't imagine the damage it can make (if not already) to Ubuntu, GM945 is widely used out there and Ubuntu Hardy is not usable on that adapter! -- lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218334 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

a. This never happens because of display power management. In fact, this only ever happens in the midst of my using the computer, never while I'm away. It also does not happen after a set time, as you would expect if it were display power management. b. I am using GNOME, not KDE. -- lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218334 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 218334] Re: lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2]
as Dmitry pointed out - you can almost eliminate these effects by: a. Disable Display power Management completely. Do this as Administrator AND User. b. Completely disable kpowersaved Disabling a just as user didn't stop these effects to happen. Since I also disabled it as Administrator - I barely had a black screen anymore ! -- lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218334 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

Forgot to mention #2 :-): There is nothing in any log available. Looks like nor driver nor X aware of the problem. -- lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218334 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 218334] Re: lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2]
Forgot to mention: a) I am not using xorg.conf. X configures itself perfectly as it should in Hardy. b) I am not using compiz or anything similar. c) Gutsy was happy on same machine and problems begun at first boot after upgrading to Hardy. d) Tried to boot with nosmp, it doesn't help. -- lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218334 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 218334] Re: lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2]
I have identical setup (Mac Mini + Hardy) and have similar problems. I must add: 1) In my case screen becomes gray (not black) and becomes black only if I switch to textual console and back. After that X is still working but driver doesn't redraw the buffer. I've tested with X11VNC and X session is fully operable via VNC. That happens randomly but at least once in 1-2 hours. 2) In addition, screen blinks randomly every few seconds. It looks like some parts windows in background jumps to foreground and then foreground windows redraw it self. It is also possible that Video controller jumps to wrong part of frame buffer. 3) I have to reboot to use X serer again via Video controller. Removing driver (intel, i was not able to remove intel_agp, it's locked) from kernel doesn't help. I am willing to assist, please request any information and tests you may need to perform. -- lockup on mac mini 945GM [8086:27a2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218334 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
