I've forwarded this issue upstream here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20375 Meanwhile, if you find that adding 10de016a to the nv.ids file makes it boot the nv driver okay, I can patch that in directly. However I anticipate it might require more code changes than that, so will wait for confirmation on that (or a patch from upstream). -- jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309482 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 309482] Re: jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails)
The kwin issue may be due to trying to use "vesa" (which doesn't support compiz, which kwin requires afaik). But report that separately as it's not an -nv issue. If you want the -vesa crash investigated as well, file a new bug for that, with a full backtrace of the xserver when running with "vesa" (directions for this are available at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing). As far as it not using -nv, it looks like the GeForce 7100 is not listed as supported in -nv yet (despite what 'man nv' seems to claim). So yes this hardware will require using -nvidia for now. You can see what pci id's that the -nv driver supports by looking in /usr/share/xserver- xorg/pci/nv.ids. You can also try forcing it by inserting "10de016a" into that file; no idea if that will work though. Anyway, that third issue is indeed an -nv problem, so we'll focus on that for this bug report. ** Changed in: kdebase-workspace (Ubuntu Jaunty) Sourcepackagename: xserver-xorg-video-nv => kdebase-workspace Importance: Undecided => Wishlist Assignee: Bryce Harrington (bryceharrington) => (unassigned) Status: Incomplete => Triaged ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nv (Ubuntu Jaunty) Sourcepackagename: kdebase-workspace => xserver-xorg-video-nv ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #20375 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20375 ** Also affects: xorg-server via https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20375 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309482 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
[Bug 309482] Re: jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails)
Brian I think it is a strange combination thing. Kubuntu by itself will run on the machine using the -nv driver with no issues. However the minute I try and install in oem mode it fails. However Oem mode in Ubuntu on the same machine works flawlessly. I really don't think it is the driver but more what Kubuntu is doing in oem mode with the driver. -- jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309482 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 309482] Re: jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails)
Btw, I still need some of the info requested above, in particular lspci -vvnn. As well, none of your files show -nv actually being used. If you are sure it is failing when using the -nv driver, please attach an Xorg.0.log from where that was used so we can see the error. Otherwise, my guess is just that you have some chipset that -nv doesn't support (which is why I need lspci -vvnn) so Xorg is falling back to vesa, which doesn't support what kwin needs to run, which could explain its failure. Can you reproduce this issue with Ubuntu or only on Kubuntu? If only the latter, then my guess is this may be a kwin-specific bug. -- jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309482 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

Bryce Sorry my bag I decided to clean up my http directory a bit, I was really starting to lose what was what with it. The nvidia gfx home build is at http://www.davmor2.co.uk/pc-specs/home- build1.html My all intel box used to play up in the exact same way. However now it no longer fails. spec is http://www.davmor2.co.uk/pc-specs/esys1.html I'll try your suggestions 3 and 4 tomorrow afternoon utc when I do the next batch of daily smoketesting. To answer number 5 the last test was on the 20090204 (alpha 4 iirc) and it was still in place it was this cd where the intel install worked fine. I'll upload the log files tomorrow for you.

[Bug 309482] Re: jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails)
A few questions: 1. "no longer an issue on my intel box" - this implies you reproduced the issue on -intel. Was it exactly the same problem (including the white-background cross cursor)? Since that went away I'm wondering if it might be an unrelated issue. 2. http://www.davmor2.co.uk/64test.html gives me a 404 error. Do you have a better url? 3. Can you please attach the following files?(These files are always required when reporting video bugs against X; you may find it more convenient to report X bugs via 'ubuntu-bug -p xserver-xorg-video-nv' which will automatically include these files.) a. Turn on debugging (Option "ModeDebug" "true" in your xorg.conf) b. Please attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log after reproducing the issue. c. Attach the output of 'lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.txt'. d. Also attach your /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you've made any customizations. 4. Please test using the -vesa driver (Driver "vesa" in xorg.conf) to confirm the issue does not exist with it 5. You indicated you tested against an ISO build 20081218.5 - can you reproduce it with a newer ISO, say an alpha-5 image?

[Bug 309482] Re: jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails)
There is a page for debugging blank/black screen issues at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting There is currently a known bug with usplash that can cause a black/blank screen issue (on -intel at least), however that is confirmed due to a usplash change on 4 feb, which is later than this bug report so not likely to be the cause. The error message in comment #3 is just saying that there was another X session running. Make sure to kill all X sessions before starting a new one. The fact that the issue isn't seen with -nvidia doesn't prove it is an -nv issue, but it is an okay assumption for now. -nvidia and -nv are very, very different, with completely different dependencies and interactions with the xserver, so the root problem could still lay in something other than the driver. But we can start here. -- jaunty: Kubuntu OEM enduser setup fails with black screen (nv driver fails) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309482 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
