[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 404331] Re: X locks up when scrolling on Radeon Mobility M6 LY

2010-07-28 Thread Cedders
A little more information in case it gives any clues:

As well as the 3 scenarios above (triggering under identical conditions as far 
as I can see), there is a fourth after all:
 
d) As a) but the screen blanks.  That is, there is a momentary pause, the 
screen goes entirely black, but I am able to (say) Ctrl+Alt+F1, llogin and sudo 
reboot.

So the screen blanking is a random event happening in about 25% of
cases.  Type a) is probably more common than the others.

I'm attaching a drawing of what the might happen to the scrollbar in the
application window when the freeze happens.  There are black horizonal
bars across the scrollbar, with a further few white pixels immediately
below, and sometimes the status line is corrupted.  As I mention, any
screenshot I can produce is corrupted.

If I restart gdm (and/or X) from the console after the freeze, I get the
fade into the greeter background (the brown ubuntu spotlight) but the
login dialogue is not drawn (usually that space is occupied by a faded
version of whatever was on the screen before the gdm restart).  So it's
similar to the situation after the freeze in a) before restarting gdm:
the background is drawn correctly, but any other windows cannot be
written.  I'm pretty sure that if I could change the video mode (to
text, say, and back again), gdm would display correctly.  Is there any
way to do this - resizecons or xvidtune don't seem to help?

If I comment the Option DRI false workaround (which seemed to work
for lucid), and enable Compiz, visual effects seem to work correctly
until the freeze.  It's fairly easy now to reproduce a freeze: turn
visual effects no normal or high, visit a page like this in Epiphany and
scroll down - I can scroll down a page or two before the freeze.  Also,
when this happens it seems Compiz crashes because the title bars
disappear.

Very little is logged about the problem in Xorg.0.log (I've just added 
-logverbose to 
/etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc in case that helps.)

Once it's got into this state (a), switching with Ctrl+Alt and back
again to the frozen Xorg gives:

(II) AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch
[dix] couldn't enable device 9
[dix] couldn't enable device 9
[dix] couldn't enable device 9
[dix] couldn't enable device 9
[dix] couldn't enable device 9
(II) Open ACPI successful (/var/run/acpid.socket)
(II) AIGLX: Resuming AIGLX clients after VT switch

but of course I'm still in the state of having X frozen with only the
cursor working.

2010-07-19 Thread Cedders
Unfortunately, I think this was never resolved.  On upgrading karmic to
lucid, the problem re-emerged, even though I was using the  Option DRI
false workaround.

I've been suffering lockups/crashes at about the same frequency, every
2-3 hours say, for several months (except when I use Windows, which is
very tempting - there's a additional and probably separate problem that
lucid never resumes successfully from hibernate or suspend.)

Again, the lockups are most common when scrolling in Firefox or
switching between windows (as if it's a DMA/timing thing?).  Again,
there's often a corruption of the scroll bar visible either side of the
slider, and the bottom 10% of the window hasn't scrolled.  However, what
happens next differs from the problem as in hardy-jaunty with DRI true.
At approximately equal frequency it may be one of:

a) The cursor is still moving but the screen not updating (eg I have
system monitor in the top panel and it stops).  CPU usage is not
particularly high.  The only thing I can do in Gnome is click on the
buttons on the taskbar to minimise applications, and Gnome will redraw
the desktop background correctly.  I can use Ctrl+Alt+F1 to switch to a
text console and reboot cleanly.  I've tried taking a screenshot of this
state, but it has been saved as a distorted PNG.

b) There is a complete freeze: the corruption in the Firefox window may
be visible, but the cursor won't move.  Even Alt+SysRq+E keys won't work
and I have to manually power-cycle.

c) As b, but the screen blanks after a fraction of a second, and remains
blank.  I know in this situation Alt+SysRq won't do anything.

With a different Xorg configuration (I may have changed AccelMethod,
plus there have been some xorg driver upgrades) I've also seen X/gdm
crash and restart after a):

(II) Sleep Button: Close
(II) UnloadModule: evdev
(II) Power Button: Close
(II) UnloadModule: evdev
 ddxSigGiveUp: Closing log

I got a backtrace from a) but never uploaded it, as it wasn't very
revealing:

2009-11-10 Thread Cedders
I think this is a duplicate of (parts 1 and 3 of) bug 421842 - your
notifications look just like the ones reported there, in Gnome and KDE.
What does System Monitor look like with effects off? Here's an example:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/31041978/Screenshot-System%20Monitor-
tartan2.png

Quote screen corruption with the system monitor, compiz, and
notifications but also with Gnometris. Don't those applications all use
Cairo or is it coincidental?  I found these problems are not present
with xf86-video-ati-6.12.4, but are in the HEAD version of xf86.
Someone else found a workaround (at the expense of performance) in
xorg.conf:

My problems 1-3 above still exist with

xserver-xorg-video-ati/unknown uptodate 1:6.12.99+git20090929.7968e1fb-0ubuntu1

(and also sometimes console switching with Ctrl+Alt+F1 still doesn't
change to text mode.)

As Luca says, problem 3 (tartan screen corruption and font problems with visual 
effects off) disappears with 
   Option AccelMethod EXA
and in fact so do problems 1-2 (crashing and general screen corruption which 
only occur with Compiz effects enabled). 

je - if you have time, could you try typing in Abiword with visual
effects off?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 421842] Re: screen corruption and segfaults with radeon m6 ly

2009-09-26 Thread Cedders
It looks like 2 or 3 separate bugs all introduced into radeon_drv.so
since Jaunty.  From latest karmic, if I do

  sudo dpkg -i --force-downgrade xserver-xorg-video-
radeon_6.12.1-0ubuntu2_i386.deb

everything is fine.  Compiz effects are a bit slow, but I don't get
segfaults or any screen corruption.  So I tracked through the git
versions...

1) A small amount of screen corruption around the window borders (with
DRI and compiz visual effects) seems to have been introduced between
xf86-video-ati-6.12.1 and xf86-video-ati-6.12.2.  (I think the
console/mode switching problems may have started during this period too,
but were later fixed.)

2) The segfault was introduced between xf86-video-ati-6.12.2 and 
xf86-video-ati-6.12.3 in commit 3c348091ae5d88ef3cb850889ca74674e0530b4e  (see 
attached) The conditions to produce this involve resizing a window or doing an 
operation larger than particular dimensions (with DRI and compiz visual 
effects), and it looks like the bad commit sets some dimension maxima too 
optimistically.  Changing a line to 
xf86CrtcSetSizeRange (pScrn, 320, 200, 2560, 1200);
stops the segfault, but I guess problems may go deeper than just that line, 
because it shouldn't segfault at all.  This bug is also associated with screen 
corruption over large areas when a window with focus is dragged over one 
without focus.

3) The tartan patterns and font rendering problems (which only occur
*without* DRI and compiz visual effects) are not present in xf86-video-
ati-6.12.4, but are in the master head.  I don't know how to locate
these to an exact commit because of a merge and some compilation
problems.

Please let me know if I should do anything else, like report these
upstream.  I'd suggest this bug (421842) concentrates on the segfault
(number 2 above), and I could open another ubuntu bug for number 3).
Hope this isn't too confusing.

Can reproduce all these bugs on latest updates and alpha-5 live CD, but
not alpha-4.  To reproduce 'tartan' effect with alpha-5, uninstall
compiz-gnome, logout, and run GNOME System Monitor (also seems to occur
when there is no window manager, so don't think it's a metacity
problem).

Compiz Segfault apparently depends on area of window, not height or
width.  Best workaround remains Option DRI false.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 404331] Re: X locks up when scrolling on Radeon Mobility M6 LY

2009-09-07 Thread Cedders
I've also just reproduced this problem (Firefox scrolling) on fresh
Jaunty 9.04 live CD, using a 3COM wireless card rather than ndisgtk.  I
think this means we can rule out anything to do with persistent
configuration errors or corrupted packages, or realplayer or ndiswrapper
(and probably nothing to do with IRQ conflict with the PCMCIA card).

I think we may be dealing with at least 3 separate bugs - this one
404331 has been present since HDD was formatted and Windows XP and Hardy
installed.  It only hangs when DRI is enabled, and then Xorg takes 99%
of CPU and cursor movement is jerky.  It was definitely present in
Jaunty, but I'm *not* 100% convinced it's in Karmic, because the other,
newer bugs mask it (including one in alpha-5 live CD which causes
distorted screen corruption a different freeze involving dd and rsyslogd
and stationary cursor; and the reproducible effect I've only seen on
latest karmic on the installed version with 'tartan' window corruption)
and also I have DRI turned off just in case on the HD installation.

I'll continue to test, but I'm not sure which bug to concentrate on
(about to try upgrading individual packages on live CD to alpha-5).
This one (404331) is annoyingly infrequent, because I usually have to
turn DRI and work for an hour or two before it happens, meaning losing
some work...

2009-09-07 Thread Cedders
Some more information from M6 LY world...

1) Starting from Karmic alpha-4 (LiveCD), which works, I can upgrade
xserver-xorg-video-radeon to the karmic repository version, and xserver-
xorg-core and all the -video packages, compiz, and hal/libhal, and
finally install libdrm-radeon1 to get DRI functionality back (otherwise
it tends to fall back on vesa).  I can't upgrade libgl1-mesa-dri because
of bug 420617.  After all this, everything still seems to work fine,
compiz effects and all.  This makes me suspect libgl1-mesa-dri (or maybe
the window-decorator?).

2) With the latest updates, the 'tartan' screen corruption still occurs if and 
only if DRI is off.  By latest, I mean
libgl1-mesa-dri/karmic uptodate 7.6.0~git20090817.7c422387-0ubuntu3
ubuntu-desktop/karmic uptodate 1.167

I'm not sure the best way to test this on the live CD - unload the drm
module?

3) With the latest updates and if and only if DRI is on, I still get
hangs/crashes where either (a) with NoTrapSignals left as false, I get
reams of error messages like the above 'radeon_cp_start called without
lock held', and a lockup where the cursor is stationary, and I can't
attach a gdb. (b) with NoTrapSignals false, a crash in Xorg as follows:

Sep  7 20:41:23 laptop23 kernel: [  213.306512] Xorg[3115]: segfault at 14 ip

Would a core dump be useful?

Also under the same conditions, I get the partial distortion of a window
as shown in the 517K PNG.  The easiest way to produce this is to drag a
window over a window that does not have the focus.

The segfault (or hang) is most easily produced by enlarging a window
that is about 600w x 400h until it is say 1100w x 700h, or starting an
application that would produce a larger window.

4) Ctrl-Alt-F1 isn't changing to text mode properly with the very latest
updates.

5) I won't be able to confirm bug 404331 is fixed for me until this one
is fixed, since if DRI is enabled, this bug happens more frequently.

I don't have enough memory (640M) to update Live CD to latest, but have
now tried with alpha-5.  There are reproducible screen problems with
alpha-5 (e.g. hang after resizing a window), where everything seems fine
in alpha-4.  I have not seen the screen corruption in alpha-4 either,
but attach an example from alpha-5.

* alpha-4 live CD - fine
* alpha-5 live CD - screen corruption and hangs (apparently doing something 
with dd and rsyslogd)
* current HD Karmic (with DRI off) - screen corruption
* current HD Karmic (with DRI on) - screen corruption and hangs

On the hard drive, in fact I had installed and uninstalled the fglrx
driver earlier on, under Hardy, as an attempt to fix the lockups in bug
404331, but not since upgrading to intrepid.  I followed instructions at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver
and there are no packages, but a few files related to fglrx.  I tried
both methods to reinstall with no effect on the 'tartan' corruption, and
in fact went further in purging libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri and
xserver-xorg-core, and then reinstalling ubuntu-desktop.  Anything other
packages it might be worth purging?  hald?  BTW on that wiki page, I
think

  sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx*

should be

  sudo apt-get remove --purge 'fglrx*'

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 421842] [NEW] [karmic] screen corruption and segfaults with radeon m6 ly

2009-08-31 Thread Cedders
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

After an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 (which was interrupted as a result of
bug 404331), several new problems have appeared.  Font rendering in
Abiword shows a grid pattern which alters as each character is added to
text; certain applications and windows (reliably System Monitor and the
NetworkManager 'connected' pop-up) instead of ordinary contents display
a pattern that I can best describe as tartan (although the attached
images aren't in tartan colours); with DRI on, when a window goes out of
focus is it often corrupted; and (also only when DRI is disabled) when
creating a large window (e.g. for Thunderbird), Xorg segfaults, part of
the left hand of the screen appears on the right and I am returned to
the GDM greeter.

Nevertheless, this problem does not occur when running from Karmic live
CD alpha-4. (see 404331 for additional info). (Since these problems are
new in Karmic, and the upgrade was not at all smooth and required some
recovery, I suppose they could be the result of corrupt packages.)

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 404331] Re: X locks up when scrolling on Radeon Mobility M6 LY

2009-08-31 Thread Cedders
Thanks for that, but it looks like whatever improvements have been made
in the PPA, they don't affect this bug (or the new bug 421842).

I hadn't actually reinstalled the OS or run a live CD since reporting
this, just upgraded using Update Manager.  The Karmic live CD (alpha-4)
seems to cause none of these problems: the most likely differences I can
think of are that I have ndisgtk (with a Broadcom 43xx/Linksys PCI card)
on the version installed on the hard drive; I had installed and
uninstalled the proprietary RealPlayer; or the memory usage is different
(I've run memtest86+ for a few hours with no errors).  DRI and Compiz is
enabled when running the Live CD, there is no xorg.conf to edit that I
can see, but scrolling in Firefox is very slow. At least it rules out a
simple hardware fault; I can't see how this could be down to a corrupt
binary, since each package has probably been freshly downloaded since
first reporting this bug, and it must be something in the configuration.
I'll attach files from the Live and installed versions for comparison.

DRI-only issues mentioned in bug 421842 include segfaults and screen
corruption on the window losing focus.

2009-08-03 Thread Cedders
If intrepid was somewhat better, jaunty has been considerably worse,
often freezing up within an hour using Firefox (I think it's
particularly common scrolling immediately after switching into the
Firefox window).  I did have visual effects working for a while, and
there also seemed to be a reliable way to produce a lockup using compiz
'Paint fire on screen' with some high values for particle size and
number.  In the case of intrepid and jaunty, not only does the cursor
become jerky (longer timeout?), and I've not seen the screen corruption,
but the slowdown is gradual over a course of about 2 seconds, as if
whatever resource is getting locked is slowly approaching saturation.
Then a few seconds after that the laptop fan comes on as CPU usage hits
100%.  The difference in jaunty is it seems to happen more readily,
whereas I got the impression in intrepid it sometimes approached this
slowup and halt, but recovered.  There's nothing special in Xorg.log:
the last lines are about monitor detection.

xserver-xorg-video-radeon/jaunty uptodate 1:6.12.1-0ubuntu2
xserver-xorg-video-ati/jaunty uptodate 1:6.12.1-0ubuntu2
xserver-xorg-core/jaunty uptodate 2:1.6.0-0ubuntu14
libgl1-mesa-dri/jaunty-updates uptodate 7.4-0ubuntu3.1
libgl1-mesa-glx/jaunty-updates uptodate 7.4-0ubuntu3.1
libdrm2/jaunty uptodate 2.4.5-0ubuntu4

Nothing similar to this happens on the laptop under Windows XP (although 
occasionally there is a driver BSOD on boot), so if it's a hardware timing 
issue, it's one that could be worked around, as a last resort by resetting the 
card and driver.  Anyway, my current workaround is 
  Option DRI false

And that seems to be working.  Have I filed this against the wrong
package?

Backtrace for Intrepid attached - it looks like essentially the same
problem in the same function (RADEONCPGetBuffer).  It may be slightly
less frequent now, twice in three days.  Might as well upgrade to Jaunty
now...
