Bug#884829: Still present in Debian 11
A small update: I managed to rebuild the xserver-xorg-core package with the patch applied, but the leak persists. So while it manifests the same way and can be triggered by the same application, my problem seems to have a different cause. On a second thought, it makes sense: if I understand it correctly, XAA, EXA, UXA etc. were replaced by Glamor in recent years. And from the Xorg log it seems that that's what my laptop uses (Intel HD 5500), so I should not experience any issues coming from the EXA code, right? I'm not very experienced with Valgrind, but I'll send an update if I manage to set it up and find anything of interest. Martin P.S. I had no clue about this transition to Glamor; Debian now generally works well out of the box, so I'm not learning about new stuff by constantly fixing stuff. :))
Bug#884829: Still present in Debian 11
Hi, I can confirm this bug still exists in xserver-xorg-core 2:1.20.11-1+deb11u1; I have been suffering from it ever since I upgraded from Debian 10 to Debian 11 a few months ago. The memory usage of Xorg process keeps growing until eventually the laptop becomes unresponsive and OOM killer starts reaping random processes and everything comes crashing down. In my case, I tracked the problem mainly to xfdesktop4 and xfce4-panel (leaking about 5 MB per hour when the machine is idle). Only when I kill both of them the increase in memory consumption stops, although the already consumed memory is not released. Using the machine makes the rate of leaking worse, so clearly there are many other sources that can trigger the leak. I can also confirm that if I install audacious and play it with the visualization on, the leak increases to about 57 MB per hour, so the problem I experience is very likely the same one as reported here. I'm really happy to finally learn I'm not crazy and someone else noticed the issue as well (although I did not expect it to go all the way back to 2017). Is there anything I can do to help move this along? Should I try testing the patch? Or open a bug report upstream? Thanks, Martin
Bug#778355: linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64: Unable to mount SD card with ext4 after suspend
Package: src:linux Version: 3.16.7-ckt2-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainers, I ran into a problem with an SD card using the ext4 filesystem; it seems, that after suspending my laptop and removing the card, it cannot be mounted again unless I reboot the whole system, since ext4 vacated the mountpoint, but some internal kernel structures still see the card as mounted (if I understand it correctly). The mount attempt fails with message mount: mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 on /mnt/virtual failed: File exists and in dmesg, I can see 3 Call Traces and some references to already existing /proc/fs/ext4/mmcblk0p2 and /proc/fs/jbd2/mmcblk0p2-8 (that are still stuck there even after I physically disconnect the card). It seems that the issue was first discovered 3 years ago by Stefan Bader, but he was not able to do anything about it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+bug/913860 Has the situation described in comment #4 improved? I do not understand the details, but I assume this patch may have something to do with it: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-fsdevel/msg71295.html It seems that the patch was not accepted, though, the issue is likely more complex than ext4 forgets to clean up its stuff after forced unmount.

Bug#773112: pm-utils: Enabling wireless power saving by default may severely harm network performance
Package: pm-utils Version: 1.4.1-15 Severity: important Hello everyone, three days ago I upgraded my ~2 months old Jessie system to the current state and around the same time I started experiencing severe problems with my wireless connectivity. First I blamed the poor-quality UPC wireless router and mediocre signal quality, but all other devices worked perfectly so I looked deeper into that and I noticed that somehow my wireless card got into power saving mode. Disabling it instantly solved all problems and the network is usable again. E.g. ping -c 100 google.com: power save enabled: 100 packets transmitted, 94 received, 6% packet loss, time 103229ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 21.034/84.491/232.543/36.534 ms power save disabled: 100 packets transmitted, 100 received, 0% packet loss, time 103188ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 19.154/25.336/136.978/16.462 ms This example, however, does not reflect the full scale of the problem: anything that needs a little more bandwidth basically stops working altogether. It is likely to be strongly hardware dependent (I'm using Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 wireless card on an Asus UX31A laptop), but enabling power saving by default for everything seems to me as a very poor choice, since not everyone has the skill to track down the issue and make the necessary adjustments to prevent the power saving mode being automatically set. I'm not sure whether the change was introduced in this package or somewhere else, but I figured pm-utils is the one responsible for turning it on (in /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/wireless) so it should decide whether or not it is the default setting. Could you point me (or reassign the bug) to the right place if I'm mistaken? I'm labeling it only as important since I don't even know for sure who or what broke it, but I assume the priority should be bigger since it potentially breaks the wireless networking for many people (at least those with the same wireless card).

Bug#680514: xserver-xorg-video-intel: freezes also occuring in Jessie
Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel Version: 2:2.21.15-2+b2 Followup-For: Bug #680514 Hi there, I'm experiencing this issue over one month now and I'm running an up to date jessie system (kernel 3.16.0-4-amd64, xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.21.15-2+b2, xserver-xorg-core 2:1.16.1.901-1). I'm not able to find any trigger for the lock-up, the bug just randomly appears out of the blue. Once I also found my laptop frozen this way in the morning; the system was idle for at least several hours when the lock-up occured. As reported earlier, it is still possible to SSH into the machine; what I think was not reported is that it is _sometimes_ possible to revive the system by executing pm-suspend via SSH - the screen goes off for a while, turns immediately back on and everything works perfectly again. Sometimes, however, the pm-suspend succeeds and xserver remains frozen even after waking up, no matter how many times I try executing pm-suspend. In the latter case I also noticed that it takes more time than usual to finish suspending. Any idea what should I look for when it happens again? I'm running into this bug few times a week so I could try to learn more, but the logs do not seem to reveal anything useful.. -- Package-specific info: X server symlink status: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Oct 4 2013 /etc/X11/X - /usr/bin/Xorg -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2397280 Nov 3 22:52 /usr/bin/Xorg VGA-compatible devices on PCI bus: -- 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller [8086:0166] (rev 09) Xorg X server configuration file status: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 152 May 22 2014 /etc/X11/xorg.conf Contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf: --- Section Device Identifier Intel Graphics Driver intel Option AccelMethod sna Option TearFree true EndSection /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d does not exist.

Bug#595189: xserver-xorg-input-all: no support for WALTOP tablets
Package: xserver-xorg-input-all Version: 1:7.5+6 Severity: normal After xorg has switched to direct udev-based hardware detection instead of using HAL, I've been unable to get my tablet working. I've been using patched waltop driver and since I don't really understand the udev rules system, I can't prevent evdev driver (which is not working) from taking it over. Anyway, this doesn't change the fact, that WALTOP tablets don't work in Debian without self-help and good knowledge about udev etc. (virtually every how-to found on the web still refers to getting it working using HAL). There are three possible ways, how to get it working: 1) Patched version of xserver-xorg-input-wacom driver with disabled vendor-ID check. linuxacom driver was working well with WALTOP tablets until the vendor- ID check blocked any devices other than Wacom. More information for example at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xf86 -input-wacom/+bug/392825 2) There are several reports in Ubuntu bug tracking system, that some people succeeded by installing the wizardpen driver (now available from https://launchpad.net/~doctormo/+archive/xorg-wizardpen, it was dead project for several years). 3) Fixing the xserver-xorg-input-evdev driver. At this moment, when I plug in the tablet (Genius G-pen F350), evdev is loaded to handle it. It appears to be working at first, but as soon as I click at the surface (or push any button at the pen) the cursor stops moving. It moves only when i hold some button, the tip is in contact with the tablet, or if the pen is taken out of range and back again. By loading a evbug module I've found out, that even though the cursor doesn't move anymore, the events are generated as usual, so the problem is most likely somewhere in the xorg evdev driver, not in the kernel support. ( 4) there's also the official driver from Wacom, but it doesn't work with new kernel and xorg and as far as I know, it's probably based on the linuxwacom driver) The best solution would be using the Wacom driver because it includes tools for testing and setting some advanced options. The same goes for wizardpen, but one can't be sure, if the development won't stop again... -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.36-rc3 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=cs_CZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
