[Bug 282655] Re: Changing volume with laptop key shortcuts and focus on second X screen causes short term crash
Hi there, i was going to report this bug also, then found it had already been reported. So are a few more details. - This only happens when i have metacity compositing enabled. - I am also running 2 xscreens and getting the same issue. - The attached screen shot shows before and just after i press the volume up key when i have the second screen active (top half of screen shot is before, bottom half is after). - This does not happen when i have the first screen active. - No volume level popup appears when i am on the second screen. (it appears as expected on the first screen). - This effect is completely reproducible - i can turn compositing on and off in gconf-editor and see the issue start and stop. - I am using hardy with restricted nvidia drivers. i am happy to answers any further questions you may have and test fixes. ** Attachment added: before and after pressing the volume up key http://launchpadlibrarian.net/22779653/redraw-error.png -- Changing volume with laptop key shortcuts and focus on second X screen causes short term crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282655 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 282655] Re: Changing volume with laptop key shortcuts and focus on second X screen causes short term crash
** Description changed: Binary package hint: xorg I have Ubuntu 8.04.1 (fully updated) running on an Asus A8SC laptop (using Nvidia restricted drivers). When I use the laptop's shortcut to change volume (Fn and F11/F12), both x-screens lock up and appear to redraw all of the theme shading. This only occurs when I'm working on the second x-server screen (dual monitor) when I make the key press, but affects both x-servers. I am not entirely sure which package this is disrupting so have opted for xorg. I will gladly attach any diagnostics but I can't find anything related in dmesg or Xorg.0.log. I have a suspicion that this could be Compiz related as it's only the nicely-textured parts of the x-screen that get redrawn, not the whole screen. Please let me know how I can help further. + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Mobile PM965/GM965/GL960 Memory Controller Hub [8086:2a00] (rev 03) + Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.

Well, given that this is hardy my guess is that it's an -nvidia issue.

Just a thought. Unlike most of my icons at the top right of the screen, the volume control appears on the second x screen whereas the rest don't. Could the two instances of the volume control be battling over handing the key event somehow or are keys only directed to the in-focus screen? -- Changing volume with laptop key shortcuts and focus on second X screen causes short term crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282655 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 282655] Re: Changing volume with laptop key shortcuts and focus on second X screen causes short term crash
Thanks. One thing to try would be to shut down gnome-power-manager and see if you can reproduce the issue.

Hi mike-udall, Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file from after reproducing this issue.
