Stilor, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc6 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Tags added: needs-kernel-logs needs-upstream-testing regression- potential -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1091964 Title: Screen corrupted, "[TTM] Out of kernel memory" Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Release: 12.10 After upgrading from Precise to Quantal Kubuntu, some applications cause the screen to become corrupted. If I switch to text console by Ctrl-Alt-F1, there's lots of the following messages running on the screen: [ 1260.017979] [TTM] Out of kernel memory One such application is 'easytag', it is typically causing such misbehavior within 2-3 minutes after startup. Killing the offending application makes everything go back to normal. The following is a report on kernel.org's bugzilla which seems relevant: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43751 I also use nouveau driver (GeForce 8600M GS). Precise Pangolin's kernel (3.2.0-34) did not exhibit this problem; the Quantal's kernel (3.5.0-19) does.
