[indigocat]

It happens in 20.04 too, so it could eventually be a Nouveau bug.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1768976] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 is overheating after upgrade from 16.04

[indigocat]

Followed instructions from #67.

Running 'cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_driver' to
check for frequency scaling driver shows 'acpi-cpufreq' instead of
'intel_pstate', even *before* adding 'intel_pstate=disable' to
/etc/default/grub.

After adding 'intel_pstate=disable' to /etc/default/grub and rebooting,
'cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_driver' shows 'acpi-
cpufreq' as frequency scaling driver, too.

In my case, using kernel 4.15.0-45-generic, 'intel_pstate' frequency
scaling driver has never been shown as active, yet the processor
overheating continues.

My laptop's processor is an Intel i5-540M @ 2.53GHz, to be precise:
https://ark.intel.com/en/products/43544/Intel-Core-i5-540M-Processor-3M-Cache-2-53-GHz-

Video is NVidia Quadro NVS3100M with binary driver 340.107:

According to this link, disabling Intel pstate governor brings the
temperature down back to 16.04 levels:

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1768976] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 is overheating after upgrade from 16.04

[indigocat]

I'll leave my hardware specs here, it could help pinning down the problem cause.
I'm using NVidia driver 340.107.

The overheating occurs under kernel 4.15, both in 16.04 and 18.04, *but*
18.04 runs about 8°C - 10°C hotter.

Kernel 4.18 runs just as hot in 18.04.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1768976] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 is overheating after upgrade from 16.04

[indigocat]

Same problem here:

Lenovo ThinkPad T410s
Intel i5 (1st gen, 2.53Ghz)
NVidia NVS3100M graphics

Kernel 4.4 in 16.04 idles at 35°C - 37°C (fresh, high-quality thermal
paste applied a week ago).

Kernel 4.15 in 18.04 idles at 48°C - 52°C.

Only Dropbox and Megasync in the background; htop shows very low CPU use
from these 2 apps.

Overall system CPU usage (idle) doesn't go above 1.3% - 2% range.

Same workflow from 16.04 + kernel 4.4 runs 20°C hotter in 18.04 + kernel
4.15.

Regular operation with Chromium and Emacs drives temperature to 76°C -
80°C.

Critical temperature is 95°C before shutdown.

This is running really hot.

[indigocat]

** Description changed:

  # What happens:
  
  In Ubuntu 16.04 / elementaryOS, after session logout, I get a black
  screen (screen is off, not illuminated as a black background), with no
- user input options.
+ user input options, and unable to switch to consoles using
+ Ctrl+F1/F2/etc.
  
  # What should happen:
  Go back to the session greeter where I can log in again.
  
  # How this happens:
  
  This happens after a couple of hours of intensive use (4 Gb of RAM almost 
maxed-out, swapped about 2Gb on an 8Gb partition).
  If I use the computer for a half hour or so, this problem doesn't happen.
  
  # Workarounds tested:
  
  - Disabled services such as MegaSync and Dropbox, problem persists.
  - Switched kernels: 4.4 LTS series (currently 4.4.0-133-generic) and 4.13 & 
4.15 HWE series; problem persists.
  - Switched xorg stack versions: xorg regular / LTS and the HWE branch;

Close it if you want.

laggy; although DRI3 is now enabled (according to Xorg.0.log), 2D
acceleration seems to be gone.

System is an older Pentium laptop (Packard Bell EasyNote) with a Radeon
Xpress 200M chip (r300 driver). Video acceleration was working with DRI2
under the Vivid stack (kernel 3.19-64-lowlatency + xserver-xorg-video-
radeon-lts-vivid).

I'm using a 14.04 LTS-based distro, ElementaryOS, with vanilla Ubuntu HWE 
stacks.
(Testing with Oibaf's PPA or Xorg-edgers repo did not solve the problem either, 
so I purged the PPAs and reverted to official Ubuntu sources)

We already bisected and tested Xorg versions with the package
maintainers, and could not determine a consistent culprit, so the
suggestion is that perhaps a newer Mesa version after Vivid is impairing
video acceleration in 2D content display. Which Mesa package could be
showing a regression, I do not know how to assess, so I'm eager for your
input.

Here is the original report, with logs and bisect results:

Oh boy, this is getting more complex.
Perhaps I'll just stick with the Vivid Xorg stack for good, don't want this to

I updated the Xorg stack and drivers as recommended here:

sudo apt-get install --install-recommends xserver-xorg-core-lts-xenial
xserver-xorg-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-xenial xserver-xorg-

Then I updated the packages uploaded to the PPA.
Then I tried them booting with different kernels.

Done: booted with Vivid kernel (3.19.0-68).

Radeon driver version 7.7 (current lts-xenial) and Timo's bisected
~trusty2.6 show tearing in web videos in Chromium (the most efficient
browser for this purpose).

Funny thing is, Ubuntu's stock 7.5.0-1 version gives me no tearing at
all, whereas ~trusty2.6 does.

I'll test ~trusty2.6 with the Vivid kernel this afternoon.

Tested ~trusty2.5, no changes observed compared to ~trusty2.4. Tearing
in fullscreen web videos (YouTube, Vimeo) persists, windowed mode runs a
tad better, local video playback in VLC and Kodi improved (no
tearing/hiccups, but a periodic lag that can be compared to time-
shifting about every 4 seconds), but doesn't run as smoothly as the
7.5.0-1 radeon driver yet.

FTR, last working version is 7.5.0-1. Regression is first observed in version 
7.5.0+git20150819.
At the moment it's hard for me to bisect (older production machine, not enough 
disk space to install dev-essentials, can't free up space until at least next 
week).
I'll have to try later.

Indeed, I am using VDPAU since 7.5, as it has shown to improve video playback 
framerates on computers like mine.
If needed, I can try 7.7 without VDPAU and see what happens...?

2.4 tested; window-embedded Youtube on Chromium tears during the first 3 
seconds, then plays back a bit smoother than 2.3 (less frequent hiccups).

Tested; Chromium allows proper fullscreen again, gtk system GUI is still
responsive, but video tearing isn't going away; for a couple of seconds
it recedes slightly, but then comes back, both in windowed mode and
fullscreen.

As for VLC and Kodi, there's no really noticeable tearing now, but the
framerate drops intermittently every 3 seconds, in average, like a
hiccup.

We could say there's a bit of an improvement with this build.

BTW, tearing/low framerate also occurs in VLC and Kodi, which normally
have fluid playback due to low overhead.

System GUI (GTK) doesn't seem laggy, but web video playback still shows
a lot of tearing (Chromium, windowed or fullscreen).

Something odd happened in Chromium web video playback: it doesn't go fullscreen 
properly when using this driver (looks like windowed-mode fullscreen).
When reverting to the 7.5 driver, video playback in Chromium does proper, 
actual fullscreen with constant, fluid framerate.

** Attachment added: "Windowed-mode "fullscreen" in Chromium when using 7.7 
test driver"

BTW, I just finished testing the following scenarios, just to rule out a 
kernel-related issue:
-Xserver: 1.18
-xserver-xorg-video-ati: 7.7

On kernels:
-3.13.0-95
-3.16.0-77
-3.19.0-68
-4.2.0-42
-4.4.0-36

Video lags on all kernels.

When using:
-Xserver: 1.16
-xserver-xorg-video-ati: 7.5

on the above kernels, video and GUI respond smoothly.

Tested; fullscreen YouTube playback *somewhat* improved by a notch, but it
takes about 5 seconds to begin playing smoothly at 360p.
When going back to windowed/embedded playback, framerate plummets. Same
with other video sources.
Xorg 7.5.0-1 still stands out undefeated.

Just tested the drivers, video playback tear and GUI lag are still there.
We can cross 7.7.0-1 off the list.

Sorry man, I was just looking for extra help.

Yes, I don't have enough space, there's less than 1 Gb free (about which
the system constantly warns), I have no external drive to dd my home
partition (I've been awfully broke for 2 years), and I can't delete stuff
yet until I'm done with some projects on this machine (rendering &
plotting).

I'm pretty much screwed in terms of testing infrastructure now; a couple of
years ago, I could have built kernels daily.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience.

I'll have to ask someone else to do help me out with this, as this
machine has no more disk space to store repos, not enough power to
compile quickly, and not enough time off-production to do both.

I'll get back here as soon as I can.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1598593] Re: No video acceleration for Radeon Xpress 200M (r300)

[indigocat]

Packages are plain, vanilla Ubuntu.

Here are 2 videos: the first is using the Vivid xorg stack, YouTube
fullscreen on Chromium. The second video is the same, under the Xenial
stack.

Vivid: https://youtu.be/Ykhp2L_pf7Y
Xenial: https://youtu.be/p7FvXTzlIa0

The regression is patent, and it was already there in Wily.

It would be nice to know if someone going to read what I'm typing here,
or if I can just quit reporting bugs and use that spare time in going
for a walk or having a beer with friends.

[indigocat]

The reason I'm reporting this problem is:
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04, I have no plans to upgrade to 16.04 (older laptop, 
maxed out at 2Gb RAM), yet System Update insists on suggesting to upgrade my 
HWE stack (Vivid: EOL). Doing so results in a show-stopping video performance 
degradation.

[indigocat]

I tried stock 16.04, and upstream xorg; no improvement.

What I've identified is: any xorg version that supports DRI3 shows a
performance regression even if only DRI2 is active. Enabling DRI3
worsens video performance and tearing.

xorg-lts-vivid is the latest version that will work flawlessly.

[indigocat]

I've just upgraded the kernel to 4.4.0-34-lowlatency by installing the 
linux-image-lowlatency-lts-xenial package.
Video acceleration works just fine combined with the 
xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-vivid (DRI2).

Problems begin when using xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-wily or xserver-
xorg-video-radeon-lts-xenial.

Tearing ensues, regardless of the presence of a xorg.conf config file to
enable/disable options to improve framerate. Enabling DRI3 only worsens
the performance regression, and accentuates tearing.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1610591] [NEW] Video acceleration regression for Radeon Xpress 200M (r300) in xorg-lts-xenial & xorg-lts-wily

[indigocat]

Public bug reported:

After updating the Ubuntu HWE stack in 14.04 to Xenial (kernel 4.4 and
xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-xenial), system boots up fine and
responsively, but screen is laggy; there is a tremendous performance
regression in comparison to xorg-lts-vivid. Lots of video tearing that
did not occur when using xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-vivid.

System is an older Pentium laptop (Packard Bell EasyNote) with a Radeon Xpress 
200M chip (r300 driver). Video acceleration was working with DRI2 under the 
Vivid stack (kernel 3.19-64-lowlatency + xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-vivid).
I also tried upgrading to the Wily kernel (4.2.0-lowlatency), and video 
acceleration works fine with the Vivid xorg.

I reported this in launchpad previously, and it was dismissed as "invalid" 
since Wily is EOL.
The problem, however, persists in the Xenial stack, so I'm reporting it here.

Attached are the respective Xorg.0 logs.

BTW, same performance regression is observed using the lts-xenial stack 
(coupled with kernel 4.4).
It isn't EOL.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1604077] [NEW] Performance regression and no DRI3 acceleration in xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-wily

[indigocat]

Public bug reported:

Performance regression and no DRI3 acceleration in xserver-xorg-video-
radeon-lts-wily, unless one specifies Option "DRI3" "1" in xorg.conf.

Then, performance is *even worse*, in comparison to 
xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-vivid:
Desktop is laggy, video playback is choppy, tearing occurs.

Package is official Ubuntu 14.04.

I've been sticking to the -lts-vivid stack for stability, but when
upgrading to the -lts-wily stack for kernel 4.2, while the system runs a
bit smoother, video performance is severely affected.

System is a dual-core x86 Pentium laptop, 2Gb RAM.

This report was previously dismissed ad invalid.
I'm reporting it again, as it is not.
Please test both scenarios, without and with xorg.conf enabling DRI3; running 
glmark2 showed correlation with performance degradation.

The package, however, is in the official Ubuntu repositories.

That is the reason why I'm reporting the bug.

Cheers!

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1598593] Re: No video acceleration for Radeon Xpress 200M (r300)

[indigocat]

Tried adding "vblank_mode=0" to /etc/drirc, Option "SwapbuffersWait"
"false" to /etc/X11/xorg.conf as well as Option "DRI" "3". While
performance of the Wily Xorg stack is overall worse than Vivid, DRI3 is
definitely the insult added to injury, so to speak.

What information would you need from my system to begin pinpointing
possible problems or confirming possible regressions?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1598593] [NEW] No video acceleration for Radeon Xpress 200M (r300)

[indigocat]

Public bug reported:

After updating the Ubuntu HWS stack in 14.04 to Wily (kernel 4.2 and
xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-wily), system boots up fine, but screen is
laggy; although DRI3 is now enabled (according to Xorg.0.log), 2D
acceleration seems to be gone.

System is an older Pentium laptop (Packard Bell EasyNote) with a Radeon
Xpress 200M chip (r300 driver). Video acceleration was working with DRI2
under the Vivid stack (kernel 3.19-64-lowlatency + xserver-xorg-video-
radeon-lts-vivid).

I'm using a 14.04 LTS-based distro, ElementaryOS, with vanilla HWS stacks.
(Testing with Oibaf's PPA or Xorg-edgers repo did not solve the problem either, 
so I purged the PPAs and reverted to official Ubuntu sources)

Here's Xorg.0.log: (with /etc/X11/xorg.conf; removing it did not solve
the problem)
