[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 541492] Re: MASTER: [i845] GPU lockup (apport-crash) (Should KMS be blacklisted?)
Hi Tim, unfortunately I do not have your hardware, so I have to imagine what I would do. First I would blacklist all (!!!) drivers found in the /lib/modules/xxx/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00 directories of Brian Rogers kernels, where xxx is e.g. 2.6.35rc5-nopatch1-generic for one of his latest build. I.e. you make a file /etc/modprobe.d/rt2870.conf containing blacklist rt2x00lib blacklist rt2x00pci ... and so on, including the rt2800usb and reboot. If one of these steps works you are done and do not have to continue. If your wlan stick is not recognized, unplug it and plug it in again. If that has not worked load the module by hand, i.e. sudo modprobe rt2870sta (the module's name is rt2870sta also usb_core claims to have loaded the rt2870 driver) If that has worked you may add rt2870sta to /etc/modules if not I don't know.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 541492] Re: MASTER: [i845] GPU lockup (apport-crash) (Should KMS be blacklisted?)
Folow up to comment #173 Yesterday evening I had a GPU hang after 24h of squeezing the i845. First symptom was that totem player was shutting down without comment after it had opened an video which I had already watched before. Then I logged out and instead of showing the login screen the computer became unresponsive. I still could shutdown via ACPI. Unfortunately had no ssh installed so I could not draw an i915_error_state. I try to attach the critical part of syslog. I have one freze at a total uptime of 69h on two i845 based computers now with the 2.6.35rc4-131+ge467e10+nopatch-generic or 2.6.35rc5-nopatch1-generic kernels and updated drivers. This is certainly much better than what I got with the 2.6.34-v9patch-generic kernel and standard lucid drivers Michael ** Attachment added: "syslog of i845 GPU freeze" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/52205780/hang1.txt.gz -- MASTER: [i845] GPU lockup (apport-crash) (Should KMS be blacklisted?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. ___ 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

Hi Tim, kernel 2.6.35-rc5 is just a week old. Maverick will use 2.6.35 and after its release, I guess, we can expect support for lucid as well, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1498079 . For the meantime, the module you wish for your wlan is presumably rt2860sta.ko or rt2870sta.ko, and they are in the 2.6.35rc4-131+ge467e10+xxpatch-generic kernels from Brian Rogers. So either they do not work yet or other modules are loaded instead, see http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1485772.html . Try to blacklist them if they show up in lsmod, see http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1485772.html .

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 541492] Re: MASTER: [i845] GPU lockup (apport-crash) (Should KMS be blacklisted?)
Stimulated by the previous posts I tested one of our Dell Optiplex GX60 desktops with 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01) again. I found a combination which is almost perfect for this kind of machine without fancy hardware. linux-image-2.6.35rc4-131+ge467e10+nopatch-generic (!! nopatch from Brian Rogers' repository) xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.12.0+git20100716~glasen~ppa1 libdrm-intel1 2.4.21~glasen~ppa5 libdrm2 2.4.21~glasen~ppa5 plus the gpufix2 mesa packages from Brian Rogers, otherwise up to date lucid. So it is similar to what has been recommended here lately, except of the kernel. What I did for testing, frequently switching VTs, logging in as a second user (slow but safe), atlantis xscreensaver, voluntarily reboot, normal openoffice work, watching 2h xvid video with totem player, visiting heavily flash overloaden web sites with firefox and chromium. The machine is up now for more than a day and the only flaw I could detect was in dmesg during system startup, [ 34.782896] render error detected, EIR: 0x0010 [ 34.782909] [drm:i915_report_and_clear_eir] *ERROR* EIR stuck: 0x0010, masking [ 34.782941] render error detected, EIR: 0x0010 which apparently is harmless. I am writing this from a second of these i845 computer on which I just have installed above fixes. It really feels more responsive than with the 2.6.34-v9patch kernel. Would the "nopatch" in the name of the kernel which I use mean, that I do not need the V8/V9 patch on my i845 hardware any longer with recent xserver-xorg-video-intel and libdrm ?

On one of ours Dell Optiplex GX60 with 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01) I just tested the recommended fix from https://launchpad.net/~brian-rogers/+archive/graphics-fixes the "2.6.34-v9patch-generic #2-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 9" kernel and the mesa fix. All the other libs I have reverted to the standard lucid ones making shure that KMS was used. It really feels solid, congratulations and thanks. I really tried hard to crash it. The only flaw I could detect was a crash when visiting http://www.ardmediathek.de/ with firefox as already reported upstream in http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27187 #179 and following. Admittedly the i845 is old and slow but I wish to use the machines as LTSP thin clients.

In Brian Rogers' ppa two knew kernels have been build, linux- image-2.6.34-drm-generic and linux-image-2.6.34-v9patch-generic. Unfortunately those too freeze my Dell Optiplex GX60 with 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE (rev 01) the same way as the 2.6.34-52 kernel did, i.e. at the first mode switch. As I lost my patience a bit I started bisecting drm-intel-next. The culprit for my i845 specific freezes is commit 7fff400 Tue, 20 Apr 2010 03:16:04 Merge branch 'drm- fbdev-cleanup' into drm-core-next. I will have a look at the commits in that branch. -- MASTER: [i845] GPU lockup (apport-crash) (Should KMS be blacklisted?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. ___ 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

A follow up to what I posted about the fix-proposed 2.6.34-52.1 kernel in comment #188. I had a single crash since then while using firefox on a page ( www.bahn.de , German railways) which seems to fragment bitmaps not only in the ff window but eventually also the panels. The fragmentation is rather reproducible the crash not. -- MASTER: [i855] GPU lockup (apport-crash) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541511 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. ___ 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

My favourite kernel on this system is a drm-intel-next one from the Ubuntu Kernel Team 2.6.34-997.201004191525, i.e. without the V9 patch. The later drm-intel- next kernels from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm- intel-next also freeze the system at the first mode switch. The 201004191525 kernel shows an i915 error at about the same time when its successors freeze but it continues: dmesg: ..

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 541511] Re: MASTER: [i855] GPU lockup (apport-crash)
On an FSC Amilo M7400 with Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) the fix-proposed kernel runs really well whereas the standard lucid kernel was a disaster. Now xv-overlay works. I have to close the lid twice for the notebook to suspend, On opening it gracefully recovers. glxgears' frame rate has risen by 75% as compared to Stefan Glasenhardt's fix. The only glitch I could discover on my system is that a gl-screensaver would not show up and prevent Xorg to recover though the mouse cursor adapted perfectly to the underlying invisible screen. I guess that this bug is independant from V9. I also think that the lid closure of Stenten in #187 is a problem independent from V9. Stefan Glasenhardt's fix contains a patch in addition to V9 to fix the xv-overlay trouble he had (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/554432 comment #15). On my hardware Daniel Baumann's kernel freezes when I watch video.

Yesterday I installed Ubuntu 10.04 on an elderly Dell desktop equipped with 82845G on board graphics and was hit by the stuck zebra crash reported here about every 5 min. The xserver-xorg-video-intel was disabling DRI when it recognized the chipset. The i915.modeset=0 workaround really worked for me - I sucessfully tested for more than one hour. Then I tried reverting the driver by installing http://ppa.launchpad.net/brian-rogers/graphics-testing/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video-intel/xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.8.0-27-g926c7e7+lucid_i386.deb . This driver works with KMS for more than 3 hours now and the OpenGL performance is more than twice of the DRI disabled one. So for me there are two workarounds possible.
