[This comment goes to freeze bugs on intel 855GM] At bug 456902 (similar freezes on 845G) there is currently an effort to find where xserver-xorg-video-intel and/or libdrm changed and so that the freezes were triggered. Brian Rogers has a PPA that he is updating libdrm and -intel until they catch a version which freezes (they first found that a standard Karmic kernel with Jaunty libdrm and -intel did not freeze). It is possible that the same is true for 855GM and this is a chance to catch a free ride from the 845G testing effort. In order to test, use the standard Karmic kernel and add Brian's PPA: https://launchpad.net/~brian-rogers/+archive/graphics-testing . See the bug 456902 comment #29 and after for more details. Apologies if someone already reported that Jaunty with Karmic kernel also freezes. In that case, testing older -intel and libdrm in Karmic is probably pointless. I'm loosing the overview as there are many similar bug reports on 845G, 855GM and 945G/945GM, and I forget exactly what is already tested for each chipset. -- [i855] Karmic / i855GM / Fujistu Siemens Amilo M7400 : Freeze shortly after X startup on Intel i855 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477972 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

Pierre, at bug 447892 we have identified the commit to the kernel that triggered the freezes for many people on 855GM chipsets. Could you also test the before (599) and after (600) kernels to check if this is the bad commit for you as well?

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 477972] Re: [i855] Karmic / i855GM / Fujistu Siemens Amilo M7400 : Freeze shortly after X startup on Intel i855
I have a theory as for why acpi=off works, but not nomodeset or DRI off. As far as I remember, the xorg.conf option DRI off is ignored when KMS is used (cf. comment # 6, DRI is responsible for KMS, so it does not make sense to turn it off). So what acpi=off does is probably to disable DRI, and therefore also disable KMS. If this theory is right, using the kernel option nomodeset AND having Option DRI off in xorg.conf will stop the freezes. Could you check if this is the case? To understand better what is happening with acpi=off, it would be nice to have /var/log/Xorg.0.log for both the case acpi=off (without xorg.conf) and the case nomodeset with Option DRI off in xorg.conf. i don't try because ignoreby drivers version 2.8 : Option AccelMethod xxx - Try XAA, EXA (ignored on -intel 2.8.0) Option Accel Off - turns off the 2D acceleration (ignored on -intel except for i810 and i815 chipsets) Yes, I added those comments recently so that people with intel wouldn't try those options to no avail. I guess I should also add that the DRI option is ignored when KMS is used once we have verified that. -- [i855] Karmic / i855GM / Fujistu Siemens Amilo M7400 : Freeze shortly after X startup on Intel i855 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477972 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

Actually, I'm not quite sure when the DRI option is taken into account and when it's not. On my computer (965GM) it is not ignored, Xorg.0.log says (**) intel(0): Option DRI off but glxinfo says direct rendering: Yes and yet my OpenGL screensaver (Busy Spheres) is down to about 1 fps as opposed to something reasonable without the option, so something must have been turned off. The comment # 6 I referred to in the previous comment was in bug 447892 and not this one. In that case the DRI option is clearly ignored. Maybe it depends on the chipset. It would therefore be nice to have your Xorg.0.log with KMS (i.e. no kernel option) and Option DRI off in xorg.conf in addition to the ones mentioned in the previous comment. -- [i855] Karmic / i855GM / Fujistu Siemens Amilo M7400 : Freeze shortly after X startup on Intel i855 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477972 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

Dan, we (and more importantly, upstream) have a policy of only one reporter per bug report. This is because xorg-bugs that look exactly the same can have different causes. It soon gets confusing when we have files from different reporters in the same bug report, especially if it turns out that the logs are incompatible. We appreciate your information, but we would prefer it in a separate bug report. If the issues turn out to be the same, it can be marked as a duplicate, which means that we have two linked bug reports of the same issue, but it is easy to keep track of which files come from where. There are already quite a few bug reports on 855GM freezes (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bugs?field.tag=855gm%20freezefield.tags_combinator=ALL), but since you are providing high quality input (in a place where it is not very useful), it would be nice if we could have one from you as well. Please take a look at the other 855GM freeze bugs and take a look at the different tests that are useful and include that in your report (and the comments you made here). Make sure to make it a complete report with /var/log/Xorg.0.log, full dmesg output and output of `lspci -vvnn` as separate attachments. If you get all the information in there right away, we avoid a few rounds of back-and-forth communication and can put your information to use right away. -- [i855] Karmic / i855GM / Fujistu Siemens Amilo M7400 : Freeze shortly after X startup on Intel i855 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477972 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

Pierre, on some other ubuntu freeze bugs on 855GM it is reported that booting with the kernel parameter acpi=off works around the problem (Esc at boot to show the Grub menu, 'e' to edit the default entry, add acpi=off after quiet splash, Ctrl+C to boot IIRC). Could you check if this is the case for you also? Another tests I would like you to do: - Check whether it occurs without KMS, that is, instead of acpi=off, use the option nomodeset There are a couple of more options that you can try in xorg.conf at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/Freeze#Narrow%20Subsystem%20it%20Occurs%20in . If any of them stop the freezes or reduce the frequency of them that is also a useful data point, since it may tell us which part of the driver is responsible. Finally, there's a chance that a newer kernel might have some fixes that resolves this. You may get newer mainline builds at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and there is some more information about those builds at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/MainlineBuilds . Even if none of the mentioned tests changes anything, that is a very useful thing to know. -- [i855] Karmic / i855GM / Fujistu Siemens Amilo M7400 : Freeze shortly after X startup on Intel i855 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477972 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
