[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1574354] Re: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine
Hi everyone ! Considering the potentially very wide scope of a bug that would freeze the X server, could you guys & gals give more details ? - OS / ARCH - GPU - Proprietary or open source driver ? - X or Wayland ? - Any PPA ? - How often the bug occurs ? Is it completely random ? - Does it occur with specific videos ? Codecs ? - Does it only occur when seeking into the video ? - In the VLC preferences, what video mode chosen ? - Does it freeze only VLC, the whole session or the whole server ? Can you kill it from the console ? - Do you have similar freezes / crashes in other apps ? As for me : it occurs in Ubuntu 16.04 (KDE Neon actually). Nvidia GTX 1060 + proprietary driver. Bug is random and occurs when seeking a lot into the video. It seems only to occur in VDPAU mode (hardware decoding). I have no other crash at all in any video player or even complex Steam game. I didn't double check with other VDPAU player. This is potentially a massive bug (it occurred on secveral of my machines and freezes the whole session)... Maybe it'll just "disappear" when switching to VLC 3 or Wayland... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574354 Title: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1574354/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1574354] Re: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine
Hi ! I encounter this issue too (complete X freeze sometimes when seeking too much in videos in VLC). I thought that was related to using Nvidia VDPAU. I saw this behaviour on 2 very different machines. Using KDE Neon based on Ubuntu 16.04. Tried latest NVIDIA drivers & VLC PPA. This PPA is quite outdated, though. But as this is a complete X freeze (sometimes I cannot even switch to the console) it seems quite low-level. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574354 Title: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1574354/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 600178] Re: Screen tearing when dragging window, in videos and other large screen redraws
I'm not sure my comment will be relevant, but I've just noticed some tearing *at the top of the screen only* (that's barely noticeable -- in openGL 2D games like SMC for instance), when using nvidia proprietary drivers + compiz. Please note I'm doing the following which usually gives a flawless output but not now as of Ubuntu 10.10 : - Option DynamicTwinView false in /etc/Xorg.conf so that the right refresh rate is given by the driver (I hope nvidia will fix it one day, so that it's not necessary anymore) - nvidia-settings : I tick sync to VBL everywhere - CCSM : I tick : autodetect vsync + sync to VBL This bug was definitely not there *before* Lucid. Was probably there in Lucid though. It's very noticeable in SMC or Steelstorm for instance but not much in regular 3D apps with no 2D scrolling.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 635724] [NEW] Nvidia : default xorg.conf settings prevent smooth Compiz operation (jerky animation)
Public bug reported: Hi ! Ubuntu automatically generates an xorg.conf file when installing the proprietary Nvidia drivers. It works very well overall, however, one cannot get a smooth Compiz experience without addiing two options in xorg.conf. * Option TripleBuffer True : without this option, some effects like the scale effect (like the OSX Exposé) are *very* jerky. Moreover it might make things generally smoother at a cost of a little more delay in games which is generally not visible (I personally never noticed it) * Option DynamicTwinView false : this is sadly more annoying because it would disable some important features of the Nvidia drivers. However, I think it should be discussed with Nvidia, because this feature makes the nvidia driver report a bad vertical frequency value, which renders animations less smooth. * Moroever, the Sync to VBlank setting in nvidia settings should also be enabled by default. (I also filled in a report about the default Compiz value). All in all, getting a smooth Compiz ( OpenGL) experience with an nvidia GPU implies changing 4 values... I think this is a major concern for mainstream users... Because most of them will stay with the default values and have jerky / torn animations. (in movies / games / compiz) Cheers !

Well, your gamepad may not be useless in all cases (for instance, for fullscreen games that capture the mouse pointer and do not react to double-clicks).

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 418470] Re: USB Gamepad detected as mouse (Speedlink 360 style)
Hi, well, sorry for the lack of input ! Actually, if I don't install xserver-xorg-input-joystick, it seems I cannot get the device detected. Which is probably due to the fact that the .fdi file I *have to* install specifies : match key=input.product string=ACRUX USB GAMEPAD 8116 remove key=input.x11_driver / merge key=input.x11_driver type=stringjoystick/merge To summarize, there seems to be multiple issues : - with no FDI file the device is not detected at all - with a FDI file it needs also the joystick package - with both of them, the joystick also needs to be unplugged / replugged each time, and is detected as both a gamepad AND a mouse, and behaves incorrectly in some cases (some inverted axis) I guess I should give the latest Lucid alpha a try as well.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 418470] Re: USB Gamepad detected as mouse (Speedlink 360 style)
Well, I'm a bit lost... I only manage to get it recognized when using the entry merge key=input.x11_driver type=stringjoystick/merge in the relevant .fdi file. (one OK but not perfect fdi file can be found here : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Joystick_lshal_outputs_done?action=AttachFiledo=viewtarget=acrux-usb-gamepad-8116.fdi ) Which requires to install the package xserver-xorg-input-joystick beforehand. HOWEVER, I thought this joystick driver was deprecated and one was supposed to use the evdev driver. Nothing occurs when using evdev but when you use joystick the gamepad is recognized as both a joystick and a mice. You can manually disable some mouse events ; for instance by adding the following line to the fdi file : merge key=input.x11_options.SendCoreEvents type=stringfalse/merge Still... Some mouse buttons events still occur (right click for instance). And it seems, that the second stick axis are inverted (seen when using gunroar). I tried to invert axis with line such as merge key=input.x11_options.MapAxis1 type=stringmode=relative axis=+1x deadzone=5000/merge but they only affect the... mouse behaviour :-) So to summarize, I lack some insight :-) I wonder why... 1) it doesn't work automagically ? 2) why do I have to install use the joystick driver instead of evdev ? 3) why is it recognized as both a mouse and stick ? 4) why are some axis inverted ? :-) I guess most peripherals work out of the box. What can I do to improve the situation ? :-) Thanks for reading this annoying blabbering. :-) (tested under 3264 bits Jaunty / Karmic) -- USB Gamepad detected as mouse (Speedlink 360 style) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/418470 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
