Yes, dmesg output when X fails to start with that kernel is in comment #18 #19 is when it starts fine
But when X failed to start it never even got to your debug code cause it failed in drm_ioctl with EACCESS as can be seen from drm debug output. This is where it tries to call drm_set_version and fails with EACCESS Apr 21 02:25:36 kujoniq kernel: [ 3.134782] [drm:drm_ioctl], pid=1207, cmd=0xc0106407, nr=0x07, dev 0xe200, auth=1 Apr 21 02:25:36 kujoniq kernel: [ 3.134784] [drm:drm_ioctl], ret = fffffff3 Apr 21 02:25:36 kujoniq kernel: [ 3.134790] [drm:drm_ioctl], pid=1207, cmd=0xc0106407, nr=0x07, dev 0xe200, auth=1 Apr 21 02:25:36 kujoniq kernel: [ 3.134792] [drm:drm_ioctl], ret = fffffff3 So it's not really a drm problem. Xorg tries to start too soon while plymouth-splash is still doing stuff with drm. After i disabled plymouth-splash i never reproduced this again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982889 Title: X trying to start faster than drm driver is ready To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdrm/+bug/982889/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
