I am pretty sure this bug (or something related) has been reborn in recent days. I have a up to date Karmic computer and after installing the 185 driver in hardware drivers the system boots to a black screen. I.e. X doesn't start.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 429003] Re: [karmic] Xorg (and anything GLX) crashes on startup
@Jack, there are millions of reasons why X might not start. The one that produced the bug in this case related to an update of libc6 that caused a problem, that was fixed in a later version. This bug affected all hardware that used the nvidia driver version 185. As I am using this driver in an up to date karmic, I am mostly sure this bug hasn't regressed. You should look if your bug has been reported by someone else, and if it hasn't, then report one yourself.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 429003] Re: [karmic] Xorg (and anything GLX) crashes on startup
Brave as I am, after a release upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 am experiencing the exact same as post #53 even after downgrade of libc6 as suggested earlier in this thread. Using 'Trident Microsystems XGI Volari XP5 (rev 02) on pci 01:00.0 It IS an x-driver issue. I can say that much. Other unusual things happened like some messed up log files in /var/log and the .viminfo of the root account. Also the Xorg.0.log contained total garbage on occasion. All happening on an ECS 532 notebook with transmeta TM8600. Everything, including wireless, worked fine under Kubuntu 9.04(jaunty). Any hints are much appreciated. Any way to revert to 9.04 short of a re-install? What's a good way to go about to trace that bugger?

@Johannes This bug is closed, and your bug is different, so you don't have to comment in this one.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 429003] Re: [karmic] Xorg (and anything GLX) crashes on startup
There definitely needs to be a rollback feature, but not one specific to synaptic (it's not even installed by default in Kubuntu, no?). It should probably be an option from the recovery menu: roll back packages since [time|last-successful-boot]. This probably won't happen much to non-alpha/beta (average) users, but would be a nice feature just in case someone hoses their production system with a 3rd party package. Oh well, hopefully the Ubuntu gurus are working out the problems and we either get new libc6 or nvidia-glx-* packages soon.

Locking them in Synaptic will only effect upgrades done through Synaptic. Pinning the versions will prevent any of the utilities from seeing the updates.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 429003] Re: [karmic] Xorg (and anything GLX) crashes on startup
@Matthias Klose:
I think it is well possible to test this without any Nvidia hardware:
you probably can just do
$ dpkg-deb -x nvidia-glx-185_185.18.36-0ubuntu2_i386.deb xxx
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/xxx/usr/lib glxinfo
and observe the crash -- it occurs on shared library load, very likely
before Nvidia's GL library even tries to access the HW. Consider also:
$ cat test.c
int main() { return 0; }
$ gcc -o test test.c -lGL
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/xxx/usr/lib ./test
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
It crashes before reaching main(). Also, something strange is going on
here:
$ LD_DEBUG=all LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/xxx/usr/lib ./test
[clip]
6922: symbol=pthread_key_create; lookup in
file=/usr/lib/libXdmcp.so.6 [0]
6922: ./test: error: symbol lookup error: undefined symbol:
pthread_key_create (fatal)
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
I don't know (as of now) how to debug the .init section code of a shared
library, so I'll have to stop here.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 429003] Re: [karmic] Xorg (and anything GLX) crashes on startup
The latest eglibc upload is believed to fix this bug. Changelog: eglibc (2.10.1-0ubuntu12) karmic; urgency=low [ Steve Langasek ] * Restore missing depends/conflicts/replaces handling for findutils and belocs-locales-bin, lost in the latest merge. * Move ldconfig trigger handling to libc-bin postinst, since that's where ldconfig and the trigger are actually located. * Drop debian/local/etc_init.d from the source, which is no longer shipped in the package having been dropped in Debian * debian/rules.d/debhelper.mk: revert breakage from Debian experimental; pulling in file substitutions from script.in has to happen before substituting other tokens, since script.in/nohwcap.sh contains other tokens that have to be replaced. LP: #427288. [ Matthias Klose ] * Don't apply hppa patches, don't apply any/local-linuxthreads-kill_other.diff.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 429003] Re: [karmic] Xorg (and anything GLX) crashes on startup
Also, as expected, downgrading libc6 and libc6-i686 to 2.10.1-0ubuntu9 made glxinfo not crash when nvidia-glx-185 is installed. Upgrading the two packages to 2.10.1-0ubuntu11 made the crash reappear, and removing nvidia-glx-185 to disappear again. So, this is some kind of mismatch between the new libc packages and Nvidia's drivers. -- [karmic] Xorg (and anything GLX) crashes on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/429003 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 429003] Re: [karmic] Xorg (and anything GLX) crashes on startup
If you're stuck with a black screen on boot because of this and can't seem to CTRL_ALT+F1 press ALT+PRINTSCREEN+R to release the keyboard from the Xserver. You can then hit CTRL+ALT+F1 to get a TTY If you just want to get around the issue you can use the NV driver by editing xorg.conf sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf Then edit the part that reads: Section Device Driver nvidia to: Section Device Driver nv Save the file and then reboot (or in Kubuntu /etc/init.d/kdm restart or in Ubuntu /etc/init.d/gdm restart). That should get your desktop up and running, minus any extra video effects requiring compositing At least some people reported that that works, however, although I could see the KDM login screen, X would crash when I tried getting in, so I had to remove nvidia altogether. Again at the terminal (and assuming you are using v185): sudo apt-get purge nvidia-glx-185 nvidia-185-kernel-source and then after a /etc/init.d/kdm restart I was good to go For those interested in downgrading the troublesome packages temporarily so they can keep using compositing, but aren't sure how: If you've been on Karmic for a bit, you probably already have the packages needed in /var/cache/apt/archives/ sudo dpkg -i --force-downgrade /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.10.1-0ubuntu9_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i --force-downgrade /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6-i686_2.10.1-0ubuntu9_i386.deb If not you can grab them from http://archive.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/pool/main/e/eglibc/ I also had the dev package installed, so I needed to downgrade that due to dependencies: sudo dpkg -i --force-downgrade /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6-dev_2.10.1-0ubuntu9_i386.deb Keep in mind, that unless you pin these they will be updated back to the broken ones if you apply an update (and it will be reported as there being an update available as soon as you do this), so either pin them or wait for this bug to be reported as resolved before doing another update. Lastly, I heard a couple of people say that manually installing the NVidia driver from NVidia's website fixed their troubles, however I can't confirm this personally and it would really only be a last resort solution for an end user anyways. So since the point of Alpha 5 is to work out the bugs, going this route means you aren't at all interested in helping to fix the issue or identify others down the road and really shouldn't be on Karmic in the first place... let alone complaining about things getting broken in an ALPHA DEVELOPMENT release. -- [karmic] Xorg (and anything GLX) crashes on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/429003 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
