[Bug 472506] Re: No DRM, high cpu usage by X on rendering and frequent X crashes on Intel(R) G45/G43 Integrated Graphics Chipset
Hi, I have the same problem, with the exact same video harware in Ubuntu 9.10. In BIOS, the PAVP option is Disabled. My X session starts with non fatal errors but it is very slow and it systematically crashes when I run the System Testing tools provided with Ubuntu. The video test makes X crash. I also have to say that the 'nomodeset' option is given to my kernel in order to not hang at startup. How can I help reporting useful information to debug this problem as it is very anoying and it has been here for a while now. I would very much apreciate your help. Thanks. --- xserver-xorg-video-intel is version 2:2.9.0-1ubuntu2.1 -- $ uname -a Linux xxx-desktop 2.6.31-20-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 8 09:02:26 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ grep EE Xorg.0.log (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

[Bug 472506] Re: No DRM, high cpu usage by X on rendering and frequent X crashes on Intel(R) G45/G43 Integrated Graphics Chipset
I just resolved this issue. The whole problem was caused by bios setting. There is a Protect Audio Video Path Mode option under chipset configuration. It was set at Paranoid and that was the cause of the problem. When that bios setting is set to Disabled or Lite the problem does not appear. Mesa DRI Intel(R) G45/G43 GEM 20090712 2009Q2 RC3 is successfully initialized, no erros or warnings at logs and the performance is perfect. See What is PAVP (Protected Audio Video Path)? paragraph at http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-029871.htm for more info about this option. So the fix to this issue is this: * Reboot the pc * Press DEL to enter bios setup * Go to Advanced - Chipset - Northbridge and locate the option Protect Audio Video Path Mode * Set it to Disabled or Light * Save changes and boot. Can anyone more familiar with this bios options tell us what is the recommended setting for ubunutu? Disabled or Light (or maybe there is no difference). ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- No DRM, high cpu usage by X on rendering and frequent X crashes on Intel(R) G45/G43 Integrated Graphics Chipset https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/472506 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
