[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 631412] Re: [maverick] - Xorg fails to load with "nomodeset" kernel parameter
This bug is likely to be not fixed anytime soon. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14216 Comment #43 From Zhang Rui 2010-09-27 01:18:54 we have several bug reports that ACPI video driver controls the backlight correctly, but the backlight fails to change after evaluating the AML code. We have no idea what is going wrong here, and how to fix it. A alternative way is to disable ACPI video driver and control the backlight in other ways, like, platform specific control methods, the legacy PCI register, etc. ** Bug watch added: Linux Kernel Bug Tracker #14216 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14216 -- [maverick] - Xorg fails to load with "nomodeset" kernel parameter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/631412 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel 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

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 631412] Re: [maverick] - Xorg fails to load with "nomodeset" kernel parameter
There is a kernel.org bugreport also
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16036
currently I am using
sudo setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=80
to change backlight control.
Well, actually I use lirc daemon to intercept fn-keys and call a
following bash script when screen brightness fn-keys are pressed)
#!/bin/bash
var1=`cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness`
var2=`cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/actual_brightness`
var3=`echo "16 o 16 i $var2 FF $var1 / * + 1 + p"| /usr/bin/dc `
sudo setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=$var3
yep, it works :)

The same bug here - Toshiba Satellite T130-14T (intel g4500) and Kubuntu 10.04 64 bit. With a chance of 1 out 5, notebook will stop booting right before kdm start. Usual splash screen is just shown (kubuntu with 5 stars).

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 367377] Re: High load average, disk read, no apparent reason - 2.6.28-11
I also experience the same bug on notebook with i945 chipset with Ubuntu Jaunty. Symptoms are the same - at some point system becomes irresponsive, disk activity is such high that the only option is to power-off the notebook. As I was experiencing it rather frequently I had open consoles with dstat, htop and atop running. dstat show that activity is completely "read", not "write". htop shows load average near to 25/18/8 with lot of processed in "D" state (waiting for IO, AFAIK). Memory is about 500 Mb consumed (+1Gb cache) of 1.5 Gb total. Atop show me that there were *several* programs fighting to read the disk - the most prominent was okular (actually right in this case bug was triggered by fast listing the 400 page 2Mb pdf), but firefox, thunderbird and X were also having a high read activity! After killing okular (took a minute to quit from htop to bash) normal desktop responsivenes returned. But bug is *not* in okular - different times different programs trigger this behaviour. My systems is jaunty, i386 arch. The behaviour is the same with kde4.2.2 and kde4.2.3 (installed from kubuntu-experimental ppa). I upgraded the xserver-xorg-video-intel from xorg-edgers ppa - still the same. And I did not not touch the xorg - right now it is UXA, see the attached xorg.log. I don't know the default for pure jaunty. PS now i know for sure - it is not a beagle to blame, as i expected ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27007852/Xorg.0.log -- High load average, disk read, no apparent reason - 2.6.28-11 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367377 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel 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
