2009-09-24 Thread siknasa9
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. Anything I can do to help?

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. 
Not that is gone.

 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.  For
comment 26, I wonder if I am seeing a variation on the theme of Bug
296167 (and similar) bugs.

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.  CTRL-ALT-F1 got to me a virtual terminal, where I could
restart GDM, and all has been fine since.

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.

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.
I would like for that to change.

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).

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.

 Bryce, do you want us to update anything else from there, or just the
 driver?

Just the driver.
 
 FWIW, I've been running with 185.18.14 since it came out.  I still see
 instability issues, although not as badly as before.  And it *appears*
 to change depending whether I hook up a 2nd display.  Adding that
 appears to make things less stable on Jaunty, but not Intrepid.

Okay thanks, that may be sufficient testing.  The package I posted is
pretty much just the same 185 that you already have installed.

I've posted a new version of the -nvidia driver to our xorg-edgers PPA,
would you mind testing it either on Jaunty or Karmic and see if it
resolves this bug?

Get nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 - 185.18.14 here:

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 359245] Re: Jaunty X highly unstable

2009-05-15 Thread Darwin Survivor
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.
