Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
This might be a duplicate of bug #151044 which reports similar problems on an 'onboard intel 82845g/gl video' on gutsy. Please refer for logs and trace files to my bug reports. This bug is for intel i830M (not i845). Probably related upstrem bugs: Corrupt display on i845/i830M: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14066 is related to the intel i845 and http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14065 to the i830M. I had some severe problems getting the driver to work with DRI (see https://launchpad.net/bugs/114331). The problems with corrupt display are gone and I thought, it works. But after rebooting the machine the next day, X freezes the system. Only using "Option" "noaccel" "true" in 'xorg.conf', or using using a special "boot procedure" described below gives me a working X. I already have the splash screen disabled, because this could cause trouble. - hardy alpha 4 (fresh harddisk installation) && apt-get upgrade - Chipset: Onboard Intel Corporation 82830 CGC (i830M) - xserver-xorg-video-intel Version: 2:2.2.0.90-2ubuntu2 - linux-image-generic Version: 2.6.24.7.7 Only with the following PROCEDURE I can get X up and running - once it runs, it is stable: 1. Boot into SuSE 10.3 on the same machine (DRI/3D enabled), start a video inside of this xsession. 2. Reboot warm into Hardy. EVERY "Cold" boot (e.g. after the machine was completely shut down for a while) results in a total system freeze upon X start (screen keeps black). This is for hardy AND gutsy (the latter after system upgrades in january). Using gdb for debugging is impossible in this case because I cannot get a PID for X: it crashes upon startup. Using the "run" command results in an empty "gdb.txt". So I attach strace/ltrace (one is always empty due to crash). The logs for a "warm" start with a previously SuSE 10.3 X session running DRI and a video have the endings ".success". For "cold" start they have the endings ".crash". I killed the xserver via "Ctrl+Alt+Backspace". It seams to be an initialization problem with DRI, because once it runs - "warm" boot supported and "pre initialized" by another X - it runs fine. 'julianlubenov' (initial posting) got this effect by booting into windows. 2. It affects both 8.04/hardy/alpha4 and 7.10/gutsy (with the actual updates). 3. Actual i810 driver shows the same behaviour. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [hardy] X freezes system after cold boot on i830M using DRI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192088 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
