[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 735126] Re: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS
Closing the userspace driver task, as this needs to be fixed on the kernel side. Regarding the milestone, I thought the kernel was now frozen for natty?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 735126] Re: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS
And even if it does not block the installation for some reason, the installed system would not boot because of freezing on boot with KMS enabled. Though I only tried this with maverick-natty upgrade, but I guess it does not count at all, if it's an upgraded system, live system, etc, if it's kernel 2.6.38 it will freeze on radeon module, since afaik KMS is enabled by default in all cases and upstream only fixes this problem later, and it's not in natty's kernel yet. So I guess is affects every possible of usage/installation/upgrade method of natty on hardwares where it's issue - according to bug reports (including mine) it's at least Toshiba Satellite notebooks -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/735126 Title: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS ___ 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 735126] Re: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS
Maybe I've missed something: I've tried to blacklist radeon module, so I've created /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-radeon.conf with blacklist radeon on it, then I did depmod -a then dpkg-reconfigure linux- image-`uname -r` (I used the freshest natty kernel booted with radeon.modeset=0 before to allow me to use the system).

Yes, that disables kms. I am still wondering about this kms thing: if kernel mode setting is not in the kernel but done by the X Server or so, what's the deal? Why make it acceleration disappear? I would be happy to say bye-bye to KMS (and boot loge), let leave X to change video mode (instead of kernel) but I want acceleration which should be not related to setting video mode up. Or I miss something :) Surely, the best would be to do by kernel at once etc, but if it does not work for me, I can live without it, but it does not work that way it seems [no acceleration] :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/735126 Title: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS ___ 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 735126] Re: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS
Hi LGB, thanks for persisting with the additional testing, and figuring out how to work around the network issue. Looking at netconkern.log, I agree with your assessment that the failure occurs well before X starts up. The log is a bit confusing as to what exactly is failing, however it appears that drm initializes (successfully apparently), at 19 sec, and then failures begin to occur when networking is set up: [ 79.112037] ieee80211 phy0: Failed to initialize wep: -110 [ 243.716037] INFO: task jbd2/sda1-8:263 blocked for more than 120 seconds. Then various parts of the kernel start failing with errors relating to I guess memory errors? It is quite interesting that toggling KMS on or off changes the behavior. This makes me wonder if perhaps the issue is that the drm module is leaving the kernel in an inconsistent state, such that subsequent modules fail. I've added a task for the kernel, since this appears to be a kernel drm bug of some sort. ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #36007 http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36007 ** Also affects: xserver-xorg-driver-ati via http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36007 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/735126 Title: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS ___ 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 735126] Re: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS
No, and even no MAC address can be found in the ARP table, so I guess networking is not on yet before the freeze, or so? Now there was an update for kernel 2.6.38-7 (instead of -6) but the same problem. Btw, it's nice to mention that magic sysreq keys seems to work (at least alt- sysreq-b reboots the system) but I can't see any message (because of the video mode on the console?) so it's not so useful, I've tried to sync, unmount and reboot with the corresponding magic sysreq combos, but still, after I boot with maverick's kernel, still there is no sign of _any_ log message of the natty's kernel, or xorg logs at all what I would be able to send you. So I have no idea how this problem can be reported with more info, maybe network console can be useful, but I've only read about that, I haven't ever tried to use it yet ...

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 735126] Re: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS
Ok, I've booted with the old (maverick's kernel) and I hacked a new script as the first one in /etc/rcS.d which modprobes the network console module and also brings up the network and setting the log level of the console.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 735126] Re: [natty] system freezes on boot without disabling KMS
Just adding the radeon.modeset=0 to the natty's kernel's parameters causes the system to be able to boot (into a usable state, with X etc, of course not the same 3D performance etc), and not messages like the previous one with KMS not disabled.

If you plug in an ethernet cable and then boot, are you able to ssh in? If so, you can gather the log files that way. If not, then you may have a deeper kernel bug at work.
