[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 359245] Re: Jaunty X highly unstable
This has been frustrating. Mostly happens when opening a new window especially when it's a pop-up notification. I can't change the font for my gnome-terminal without this happening. There seems to be something with X. I have an XFX 750a board, amd phenom 9500, nvidia on-board 8200 video and used every driver known to man... even the official nvidia drivers and all with the same outcome. Some updates have made it less frequent but still persists.

Interesting, I also had this X-Disconnect Bug two days ago about 3 times with Enlightenment DR17. I switched to the latest stable KDE and now I get only sporadic restarts of X. NVidia Driver is 185.18.36 from NVidia, kernel 2.6.28-15. System is Dell XPS M1330. There was a time when everything was rock solid, even with Suspend and stuff.

I view Jaunty as unstable and unreliable; I would like for that to change. I've been running 2.6.28-15 and 185.18.36 for the past three days without a reboot (or crash). So far so good, which would be nice.

What I saw today was that the X session somehow got disconnected from input devices. The mouse would move, but clicks and keyboard events were ignored.

Timo, I finally had time to replace the 320GB drive in my laptop with a 500GB drive, and have reinstated Jaunty into the list of available distros in the boot menu. I'm up to date with the kernel (2.6.28-15.48) and nvidia driver (190.18.03), so we'll see if this works better. -- Jaunty X highly unstable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359245 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server 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
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 359245] Re: Jaunty X highly unstable
Timo, What makes you think that it is an nvidia driver problem? Every version of the nvidia driver has failed under Jaunty, and every one of them works fine with Intrepid and Karmic. At present I view Jaunty as unstable and unreliable and to be skipped.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 359245] Re: Jaunty X highly unstable
That's not going to happen, jaunty shipped already. If it works for you in karmic, then this bug should be closed. Lockups are due to the driver, so my guess is that it doesn't work too well with the kernel in jaunty. Has been solid for me though (180.44, 8600GT/9600GT). -- Jaunty X highly unstable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359245 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server 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
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 359245] Re: Jaunty X highly unstable
That's not going to happen, jaunty shipped already I believe that you must have misunderstood my comment. I don't mean that Canonical should have skipped it, I mean that I (and probably other users) should unless Jaunty is fixed, which is what I meant about wanting change. Jaunty had been stable, and then there was an update that caused the instability. Oh well, sounds as if this bug may be fixed by EOLing the release. No, I don't see the problem with Karmic. -- Jaunty X highly unstable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359245 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server 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

Adding that appears to make things less stable on Jaunty, but not Intrepid. Okay thanks, that may be sufficient testing.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 359245] Re: Jaunty X highly unstable
I have been having the exact same problem. My system was rock solid in Intrepid (running for weeks at a time), but now it doesn't even survive for 12 hours of uptime. My system is an Aspire 6930 with an Intel CPU and an NVIDIA graphics card. I am using the same major release of the video card driver (180). There are no other binary drivers in use. The problem is getting so bad that it has corrupted my hard drive twice (one partition, then two partitions the second time). I started using Jaunty in the Beta stage and noticed a known-bug was the unstable X server on intel graphics chips, so when I started having problems I simply assumed it was also affecting some Nvidia chips as well. But now that it's near the end of May, I'm starting to think this is a bit bigger of a problem than I had originally throught. -- Jaunty X highly unstable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359245 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server 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
