[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1249067] Re: nvidia prime causes freeze at start up
This morning (20140205 @ ~8am AEDST) accepted an update on my system (nvidia-prime amongst others). However, I was unable to login afterwards. After prowling my /var/log folder, I came across /var/log /nvidia-prime-upstart.log (attached) which suggested that nvidia-prime was the issue. I was then able to login to my desktop (degraded graphics mode - max res 1024x768) and do a Google search which brougt me here. Having never manually submitted (I believe my laptop automatically collects info about my laptop before it submits a bug when something crashes) a bug report on Launchpad, please bear with me: Laptop details: Manufacturer: Dell Precision M6700 CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3840QM CPU @ 2.80GHz Onboard Video: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) Discrete Video: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK104GLM [Quadro K3000M] (rev ff) OS: Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS Kernel: 3.9.0-030900-generic (from Saucy Salamanda to fix issues with slow Wifi performance on Ultimate-N 6300 built-in card) Work-around: I had to modify /etc/init/nvidia-prime.conf (add 'exit' statement near the top) and cat /dev/null to /etc/X11/xorg.conf in order to get back to full desktop mode.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1249067] Re: nvidia prime causes freeze at start up
This bug was fixed in the package nvidia-prime - 0.5 --- nvidia-prime (0.5) trusty; urgency=low * debian/control: - Depend on bbswitch-dkms and upstart. - Depend on lightdm (= 1.9.1). - Build only for i386 and amd64. * debian/install.in: - Install the new components. * debian/nvidia-prime.upstart: - Make sure that NVIDIA is always enabled on shutdown. This will avoid issues with the BIOS. - Make sure that bbswitch does not disable nvidia when loading. - Set up xorg.conf on boot. * debian/preinst.in: - Create a display-stopped-script entry in lightdm.conf. - Create /etc/lightdm/hybrid_default. * debian/postinst.in: - Remove it. * debian/postrm.in: - Remove /etc/lightdm/hybrid_default on package removal. - Remove the display-stopped-script entry from lightdm.conf. - Restore the non-prime related alternative on removal. * New upstream release: - Improved hardware detection. The package won't change anything if the hardware configuration is not supported. We only support laptops with NVIDIA optimus hardware and nvidia driver = 319 (LP: #1249067). - More robust system to deal with xorg.conf. Broken xorg.conf files will be automatically restored to a configuration that works with hybrid graphics. Whether on boot or on log out, we always try to make sure that the system is configured correctly. - Added prime-select switcher to switch between the integrated and the discrete GPU. This allows users to disable the discrete GPU to save power. Users' settings are now saved and applied on log out and on boot. - Added a quirk system to pass custom options to the bbswitch module (see /etc/prime-quirks). -- Alberto Milone alberto.mil...@canonical.com Wed, 04 Dec 2013 16:23:32 +0100 ** Changed in: nvidia-prime (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-prime in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249067 Title: nvidia prime causes freeze at start up Status in “nvidia-prime” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: I believe nvidia-prime modified my xorg.conf to use intel during boot.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1249067] Re: nvidia prime causes freeze at start up
Thank you for reporting the problem and sorry for the inconvenience. nvidia-prime 0.5 will solve this problem thanks to improved hardware detection, so that we enable hybrid graphics only on the systems that we actually support (i.e. laptops). The update will land soon in 12.04 and 14.04. ** Changed in: nvidia-prime (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Alberto Milone (albertomilone) ** Changed in: nvidia-prime (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = High ** Changed in: nvidia-prime (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-prime in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249067 Title: nvidia prime causes freeze at start up Status in “nvidia-prime” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I believe nvidia-prime modified my xorg.conf to use intel during boot.
