Public bug reported:
Since a while I have stange issues with X. As it happens with multiple
applications, I guess it's not application related but some xserver
related issue. The issue itself is about having odd horizonal stripes
sometimes, or sometimed unreadable fonts, etc. Sometimes they disappear
after a while or after switching windows/workspaces, but not always. At
least gnome-terminal, google-chrome and pidgin are all affected, it
seems.
I use 32 bit ubuntu precise, and ubuntu-2D (with compositor turned on in
metacity though, through gconf) session.
I even had a "GPU lockup" problem once, when only magic-sysreq helped to
kill Xserver because it was frozen
[452138.919043] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed...
GPU hung
[452138.919055] [drm] capturing error event; look for more information in
/debug/dri/0/i915_error_state
But the problem I've described happed before (and since then) this hung
too.
I've tried what kernel msg suggested (after guessing to mount debugfs
...), but:
root@vega:~# cat /debug/dri/0/i915_error_state
cat: /debug/dri/0/i915_error_state: Cannot allocate memory
And then systems slowed down a lot ... Also producing:
