[Bug 592044] Re: [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ]
Thank you for finding out what the real problem was. I will close this bug report. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592044 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 592044] Re: [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ]
The reason of this issue was that the update manager removed the xserver unduly (the bug was there not in xorg). I am very sorry, I have not been deliberate enough and I have not realized this mistake unless I checked the date of the log files.

Re: [Bug 592044] Re: [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ]
Good! There are a few more things I am a little confused about. I assume the files from comment #1 are uploaded from the NX-session. Is the XorgLog.txt from an X-session that you run in the NX-client or a non-working X-session that should have displayed on the VGA monitor? Usually when the computer starts with black screen, X also starts but does not display what it should (you may hear the startup sound if you have sound on and working) . Could you boot and log in using ssh (not the nx-client) and check the timestamps of /var/log/Xorg.*.log to see if any of them are generated during this boot. Then attach that file here. This should make sure that we get the right log. There are a number of vboxdrv messages in your dmesg. Are you running a virtual machine? Does disabling this change anything? -- [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592044 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 592044] Re: [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ]
Sorry, I added earlier the drm.debug parameter during the boot in the grub menu hitting 'e' but probably I did it a wrong way. Now I attach the new dmesg.txt with drm.debug=0x04. I can confirm that the monitor is connected on the VGA port (there is no other possibility to connect it to the graphics card). Unfortunately, I can not provide the output of xrandr because I get the error: Can't open display (because I have no any running X I can get only a text console (see below)). If I run xrandr remotely (without setting the display) I obtain the followings: SZ:Pixels Physical Refresh 0 1024 x 768( 347mm x 260mm ) 60 1160 x 120( 54mm x 41mm ) 60 2320 x 240( 108mm x 81mm ) 60 3640 x 480( 217mm x 163mm ) 60 4800 x 600( 271mm x 203mm ) 60 5 1680 x 1050 ( 569mm x 356mm ) 60 *6 1670 x 971( 566mm x 329mm ) *60 Current rotation - normal Current reflection - none Rotations possible - normal Reflections possible - none Setting size to 6, rotation to normal Setting reflection on neither axis Some other information: If I hit esc when grub starts and I check the boot parameters with the key 'e' and 'ctrl+x' to continue the boot process I will obtain the possibility to log in on a text console which I can exploit maximally. During the boot I can see the boot messages and finally gpm (mouse in a text terminal) works as well. Logging in and trying to start gdm I get the warning along with similar warnings: GdmLocalDisplayFactory: maximum number of X display failures reached: check X server log for errors If I do not touch the computer during the boot (or hit esc to see the grub menu but continue booting with enter) I will get a black screen with a blinking cursor in the upper left corner and suddenly I can see the Ubuntu splash screen for a second and finally I get a totally black screen. (No any boot message was seen.) In this final state I can not switch to a virtual terminal by hitting Ctrl+Alt+F1 or F2 etc. I can reach the machine only by ssh (ssh-server is installed) or through a graphical application like nx-client from a remote machine. If I login by ssh and issue the command 'sudo reboot' or 'sudo poweroff' the ubuntu splash screen appears immediately and reboots or shutdowns the computer. ** Attachment added: "dmesg.txt with drm.debug" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/51106529/dmesg.txt -- [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592044 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 592044] Re: [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ]
zvaral, the output of dmesg in comment #4 is without drm.debug=0x04. You can see the boot parameter at the end of like 4 in that file: [0.00] Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-2.6.35-6-generic root=UUID=abc11909-dd1a-460a-ba4c-53c7c1ebbdb8 ro There should have been a drm.debug=0x04 in the end of that line. Please try again and let me know if you get any problems. Another thing: Can you confirm that your Samsung SyncMaster monitor is connected on the VGA port with a VGA cable (that is what the logs say, but sometimes the bug is that the computer gets this wrong). And yet another: Could you run `DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr -q --verbose` and attach output here? That should give a saner output than what is in Xrandr.txt in comment #1. -- [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592044 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

Geir, Thank you for considering this bug report.

[Bug 592044] Re: [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ]
zvaral, could you boot with the kernel parameter drm.debug=0x04 and remove "quiet splash" just to simplify the boot process. Then upload the output of dmesg. We would also like the output of intel_reg_dumper and a video bios dump taken according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingXorg#Obtaining%20the%20video%20BIOS . Your Xrandr.txt (output of `xrandr -q --verbose`) also looks strange, but I suppose that is because you reported the bug from a remote connection. Susan, I agree that your wishlist suggestion may be a good idea, but I don't think this is a good place to raise it is not likely to be read by the people who put these things into place. The "standard" place to raise ubuntu suggestions is at http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com, but for something like this maybe a mailing list like kernel- t...@lists.ubuntu.com might be appropriate(?) https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kernel-team -- [g41] Blank screen after upgrade and reboot [Ubuntu 10.10alpha1 ] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592044 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
