Public bug reported:
Before updating to Raring yesterday, I first fully disabled the Xorg-
edgers PPA (by ppa-purge) and was therefore switched back to the Nouveau
driver. Then updated my system from Quantal to Raring. Afterwards, I
noticed that after a suspend/resume the greeter would not appear or hang
completely. I was intermittently able to move the cursor, but the GUI
would not respond to hovering or clicking.
I did not experience this bug in Quantal with kernel 3.5, but I rather
quickly switched to the proprietary driver for performance reasons.
I am on a laptop with NVidia GeForce 130M video card on Raring with
kernel 3.8.0, no experimental drivers in use. Attached is also a dmesg
log from a previous time this occurred, with me trying to recover from
the situation by various means - there are a lot of nouveau-related
error messages in it. Ctrl-alt-backspace does nothing, SysRq+K does what
it is supposed to do but to no avail, restarting lightdm obviously does
not help.
To reproduce:
1. Boot
2. Suspend
3. Resume
Observed behaviour:
The greeter does not appear or hangs completely, switching to another VT is
initially impossible, after a certain period of time nouveau starts spitting
out error messages to the screen and it is then again possible to switch to
another VT. Sometimes X randomly restarts and shows the boot-time greeter,
where I can log in, but after that the system freezes again.
