Title:
GL games cause GPU softreset, xorg-edgers and oibaf graphics-drivers.
Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Following the instructions:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/Freeze
The most annoying bug/issue is that after the soft reset the mouse
cursor is invisible. If this were fixed I would be most pleased.
As for the overall issue this happens whenever a game is running and
can happen while on another workspace from the game. There is no
particular game spot that triggers this bug, however there is a
separate bug where rendering stops for a few seconds after picking up
gold for the first time after a long pause, watching videos, in Diablo
III/wine. This separate bug is not a reset, just a frame that takes a
long time to draw.
The window manager is xfwm4 and the videos are playing in Flash(Hulu)
and AFAIK that's not accelerated until recently that is I'm sure Hulu
is not accelerated even though the Flash player now supports hardware
acceleration.
I'd like to point out that the above page does not indicate what
package to file a bug against. As for packages for user-space I've
only ever used xorg-edgers combined with oibaf graphics-drivers.
However I did try the 3.8.0-996-generic kernel and I must say it was a
pain to undo all of my overlay filesystems, please consider including
the overlay filesystem in future builds!
The results are the same with the current kernel. This had started
after an upgrade about a week ago so I'll attach my dpkg logs for you
to review.
Cheers!
> Have you experienced just one lockup, or have you had a series of these
lockups?
> If you've had several, how often does it occur? Every few hours? Once
or twice a day? Couple times a week?
Several, can happen multiple times in a row or can happen about once
every five minutes. As indecated it can happen even when the GL
application is on another work space.
"Shortly after upgrading"
> Under what conditions does it seem most likely to reproduce?
D. None of the Above, I've previously explained so please accept this
answer.
I'm sure you want more information, please consider beefing up the above
URL... At the vary least indicate what package these bugs should be files
against.
