[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 413296] Re: Nvidia binary driver won't build with 2.6.31-rt kernel
In my system, tho, I'm experiencing complete instability with the 185.18.36 on the 2.6.31-9-rt kernel from Ubuntu Studio 9.10. I'm experiencing this running a Nvidia Go 7700 with compiz turned on with 'Extra' effects. Changing to 'None' appears to solve some issues, at least so far I've noticed in 2 days running the box. Also, on the default instalation there were problems with artifacts rendering the system unusable to a complete mess on screen with windows shaped like triangles flying around. Turned off powermizer with the PerfLevelSrc=0x fix and problems remained only on instability like blinking, compiz changing automaticly to None setting and random freezes that eventually turn into a system crash once I used a scroll bar for too long. I'll gladly welcome any advice.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 413296] Re: Nvidia binary driver won't build with 2.6.31-rt kernel
@Iain, I had nvidia-glx-185 installed and working. I had manually patched it. I also had removed the fall_back patch as I suspected it of causing trouble. So I went from a working driver, upgraded using the ppa, and the system locked, with a blank screen. I used REISUB, attempted booting again, and this time had a quickly flashing login screen. Halfway through REISUB, before I got to B, the flickering stopped and I was able to log in to a TTY. That's when I removed, then reinstated, the fall_back patch, as I said above. Before all that, I had installed the 190 drivers but was unable to boot on the RT kernel. So I guess it is possible that I still had some residual stuff from that. -- Nvidia binary driver won't build with 2.6.31-rt kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413296 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-173 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 413296] Re: Nvidia binary driver won't build with 2.6.31-rt kernel
I upgraded the drivers using Iain's ppa. On first reboot, X failed to start (Xsplash never showed up, screen stayed blank for several minutes.) The keyboard was responsive, and I was able to get to a tty. I removed the dkms module, and edited dkms.conf to disable fall_back_on_mtrr_if_no_pat.patch. Built the dkms module, rebooted, and all was well. Then, I removed the dkms module again, re-enabled fall_back_on_mtrr_if_no_pat.patch, rebuilt the dkms module, and rebooted. It is now working. So I guess fall_back_on_mtrr_if_no_pat.patch can be ruled out as the cause of the problem. -- Nvidia binary driver won't build with 2.6.31-rt kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413296 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 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 413296] Re: Nvidia binary driver won't build with 2.6.31-rt kernel
@Trulan, how was NViDIA installed before hand? The first time you tried and failed was probably because you had residual pieces of a previous NViDIA installation still present (ie: from manual installation from the nv site), and so it was more likely an X11 failure rather than a driver failure. As your keyboard was still responsive, that further rules out an issue with the driver. (The real issue here is that after the change from init_MUTEX to semaphore_init, the system goes into a deadlock, and only a REISUB or Hard shutdown will get you out of it).

Alberto, that is what I have been using when compiling the drivers manually for the past 2 months.

Bryce, sorry, but I was very quick to remove it after it became evident that it affected something else in the driver when going into screensaver. The idea was: #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT #define spin_lock_init(lock)atomic_spin_lock_init(lock) /* etc */ #endif Removing the need for a separate nv_spin_lock_init() Evidently, this called spin_lock_init() where it wasn't supposed to be called.

I was running a vanilla 2.6.31 kernel with rt11 patches though, I haven't looked into the current state of what the RT patches are like in Ubuntu. Can someone confirm that they can start X alright please? -- Nvidia binary driver won't build with 2.6.31-rt kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413296 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 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 413296] Re: Nvidia binary driver won't build with 2.6.31-rt kernel
I can confirm the error @Iain Buclaw above, with the 2.6.31-5-rt kernel in the repositories. The patch is the same as the initial fix, and leads to a failure to boot. The failure can take the form of: - kernel panic - computer reset - blank screen and system halt (occasionally so hard that removing power is the only way to unlock) At no point do I get a working X or console. -- Nvidia binary driver won't build with 2.6.31-rt kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413296 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 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

it is not as easy, according to this posting [1] , the spinlock type has to be changed ... would be great to have an updated ubuntu package, soon ...

I ran into this issue, and wrote a patch, and posted here: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=2087519#post2087519 It is based on the patch in the previous post, but rather than a separate patch for all NV driver versions, this should work across the board. At least, I hope.
