[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1442428] Re: Headphones not detected after fresh boot or suspend/resume cycle, until unplugged and plugged back in

[Furkan Alaca]

Thanks Raymond. I think I got some interesting results.

I ran hdajacksensetest and amixer -c0 contents after a fresh boot (when
my headphones were not detected) and ran them again after unplugging and
plugging my headphones back in.

hdajacksensetest gave the same result for both tests:

Pin 0x24 (Green Line Out, Rear side): present = Yes
Pin 0x25 (Black Line Out, Rear side): present = No
Pin 0x26 (Orange Line Out, Rear side): present = No
Pin 0x27 (Grey Line Out, Rear side): present = No
Pin 0x28 (Green Headphone, Front side): present = Yes
Pin 0x29 (Pink Mic, Front side): present = No
Pin 0x2a (Blue Line In, Rear side): present = No
Pin 0x2b (Pink Mic, Rear side): present = No

The amixer output changed after unplugging and plugging the headphones
back in. I've attached text files showing the before/after output.

** Attachment added: Output of amixer -c0 contents after (1) a fresh boot, 
and (2) unplugging and plugging headphones back in

Title:
  Headphones not detected after fresh boot or suspend/resume cycle,
  until unplugged and plugged back in

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This is a regression from Ubuntu 14.04 (I have not tested 14.10).

  Headphones which were already plugged in prior to a suspend/resume
  cycle or a shutdown/reboot are not detected after a power-on (i.e.,
  Headphones: Built-in Audio is absent from the Output tab in the
  Sound Settings). Unplugging the headphones and plugging them back in
  results in the headphones being detected and automatically selected.

  I used the ubuntu-bug tool to submit this bug report after a fresh
  boot, and after going through the troubleshooting steps (which
  unsuccessfully attempted to play some tones through the headphone
  jack), Headphones showed up in the Output tab (without me having to
  unplug them and plug them in again), but was not automatically
  selected (Line Out is selected by default). Manually selecting
  Headphones succeeded in enabling sound on the headphones. So it
  appears that perhaps pulseaudio does not automatically check for the
  presence of headphones upon boot or resume from suspend (or maybe it
  does, but the hardware isn't ready to respond at the time).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1440602] Re: Graphics corruption after suspend/resume cycle

[Furkan Alaca]

Again, for the record: I was able to reproduce this bug w/ Fedora 22
Alpha (4.0 kernel, XOrg 1.17, Gnome 3). It isn't as obvious as it is in
Unity, but it's there. Here is a 10-second video of repeatedly
maximizing and restoring a window, where you can see the checkerboarding
along the top of the screen:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/85n2iq27zm00dlo/VID_20150410_033406.mp4?dl=0

Also, I'm not able to reproduce the corruption with fglrx, so I think
this means it is most likely an upstream problem with the radeon driver
(so I'll file another bug report there).

I booted up into the latest Kubuntu 15.04 daily build, and while the

Just some further testing: The checkerboarding doesn't occur when the

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1440602] [NEW] Graphics corruption after suspend/resume cycle

[Furkan Alaca]

Public bug reported:

I have observed two forms of graphics corruption after a suspend/resume
cycle:

1) Checkerboard artifacts in approximately the top 1/8 to 1/4 of the
screen. This can be observed from the following video, where I am
highlighting global menu entries with the mouse:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ez2v03oetppecgx/VID_20150324_020612.mp4?dl=0

A similar effect can also be observed while dragging windows around near
the top of the screen.

2) The virtual terminals no longer take up the full screen area, and are
surrounded by a pattern which appears similar to noise or snow on old
TVs. Here's how it appears on my screen:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7hj8qi3w3qc35jb/IMG_20150405_155434.jpg?dl=0

While these two issues seem quite unrelated, they both seem to happen
_only_ after a suspend/resume cycle, so the underlying issue might be
related between them.

Relevant hardware details:
-Video card: Radeon R7 260X (w/ the radeonsi driver)
-Main display resolution: 2560x1440 
-Secondary display resolution: 1200x1920 (portrait mode)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1337749] Re: High CPU usage after resizing a window

[Furkan Alaca]

Cristopher,

After upgrading to xserver-xorg-lts-utopic (Xorg 1.16), the CPU usage
for desktop animations is down by about half - presumably due to the new
GLAMOR optimizations. I suspect it may be reduced even further with the
improvements in Xorg 1.17.

With Catalyst, upgrading from Xorg 1.15 to 1.16 made no difference. But
considering all the other problems I've had with Catalyst, I suspect
that the poor 2D desktop performance is probably due to Catalyst itself,
and not Xorg. So I would say that this bug report could be closed.

Title:
  High CPU usage after resizing a window

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Background:

  Symptoms are 50-120% CPU usage when scrolling (especially Firefox),
  dragging around a window, resizing windows, basically any 2D graphics
  rendering on the desktop. This happens both in fglrx and the open
  source radeon driver. I started my debugging process by changing
  various settings, restarting, running top in a terminal, launching a
  Nautilus window, and quickly dragging it around with the mouse in
  circles while watching the CPU usage rise to around 50%. Resizing the
  window makes it jump to 100%+. Xorg and compiz are the culprits, with
  the CPU usage being split around 50/50 between them.

  Reproducing the issue:

  After a lot of searching I found some tips in the Arch Wiki article
  for the open source radeon driver, and I put together the following
  xorg.conf:

  Section Module
Load dri2
Load glamoregl 
  EndSection

  Section Device
  Identifier Radeon 6670
  Driver radeon
  Option  MigrationHeuristic  greedy
   Option AccelMethod   glamor
  EndSection

  After applying these settings, launching Nautilus and dragging it
  around only resulted in about 4% CPU usage each for xorg and compiz.
  Then, resizing the window (click and hold a side, and just keep moving
  the mouse left and right) made Xorg jump to 70% and compiz 50%. After
  that, when I start dragging the window around, CPU usage is back to
  around what it was originally: About 25% for compiz and 15% for Xorg.
  This exact behaviour happens after each reboot: The CPU usage is
  initially low when dragging the window around, but resizing it somehow
  messes things up and it never goes back to normal after that.

  I'm using a Radeon 6670 right now. I'll be receiving an R7 260X in
  about a week or so, so I won't be able to test with the exact same
  hardware, but I'm expecting at least similar behaviour since I also
  swapped in an R7 250 and was having the same issues.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1168705] Re: Multiple monitors with different orientation leads to stretched wallpaper when waking up.

[Furkan Alaca]

I've confirmed that this bug is due to nautilus, but haven't been
successful in fixing it (except for a workaround, described at the end
of this post). The steps to reproduce the issue are:

1) Set the wallpaper using either the system settings dialog, or gsettings from 
the terminal (either method will display the wallpaper correctly)
2) Shut down nautilus by typing nautilus -q in a terminal
3) Launch nautilus again, and the wallpaper proportions will now be incorrect 
(the picture will be overly magnified on the larger monitor)

In upstream, gnome shell is now responsible for rendering the background, and 
nautilus simply renders an invisible background over it and places the icons on 
top, as per these 5 commits on Feb. 20th, 2013:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=f0f36c876e4810b190a82e3a953d9263c106447f
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=9f99ba3506d5cf1584d9afa952e11aed17deac2f
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=8b4a83ea80bf657cd8be754786e5f9daf7d5cc52
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=07d2ca86237fac8b5bddc4e619e43dfc813bc5e7
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=372c60d3f8590280df23f457a67652adec369697

Applying the above patches to Ubuntu's nautilus gives strange results
(severe flickering). So for now, I just made myself a simple workaround.
I wrote the bash script below and added it to my startup applications:

#!/bin/bash
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-options stretched
sleep 5 # give a few seconds for the wallpaper to change
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-options zoom

Basically you need to change the wallpaper mode, and then change it back
to what you had originally (in my case zoom), and the wallpaper will
be redrawn corretly. I hope that helps whoever else might be
experiencing this bug.

  I have three monitors all hooked up to a Radeon 6950, using fglrx.
  One of the monitors is in portrait orientation and is a 1680x1050
  monitor while the two monitors in landscape are 1920x1200 monitors.

  When I first select a wallpaper (say a wallpaper that is 1920x1200),
  it does the Right Thing.  That is, the two landscape monitors show the
  wallpaper as you'd expect to see a 1920x1200 image on a 1920x1200
  image display.  The portrait monitor shows a slightly scaled portrait
  aspect rectangle out of the center of that wallpaper.

  When I leave my computer for some amount of time the wallpaper on the
  two landscape monitors is zoomed by what I assume to be the same
  percentage as the wallpaper on the portrait monitor.

  I say for some amount of time because if I set Turn screen off when
  inactive for: to 1 minute and Lock screen after: to 1 minute and
  then wake them up and unlock after a few minutes the problem hasn't
  manifested itself, but _every_ time I'm away from the computer for
  longer periods of time the issue has manifested.

  To fix, I merely change the wallpaper to another wallpaper and then
  back again.  At this point the wallpaper displays correctly.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1168705] Re: Multiple monitors with different orientation leads to stretched wallpaper when waking up.

[Furkan Alaca]

I did some preliminary examination of the nautilus source code from the
Trusty repo. There is a helper object which is used to change the
desktop background, in libnautilus-private/nautilus-desktop-backround.c
(this file was actually removed in upstream:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=372c60d3f8590280df23f457a67652adec369697)

The actual scaling and drawing of the desktop background is done in
gnome-bg.c in the libgnome-desktop package. If/when I get the chance,
I'll try to play around with it and see if I figure it out.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1168705] Re: Multiple monitors with different orientation leads to stretched wallpaper when waking up.

[Furkan Alaca]

I am experiencing the same bug in Ubuntu 14.04. My main monitor is
landscape 2560x1440, and secondary monitor (on the left of the main
monitor) is portrait 1920x1200.

Is there any fix in sight? And is this confirmed to be a bug in
nautilus? The Ubuntu lock screen always follows the correct behaviour,
but the desktop is what gets distorted after a reboot.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1293384] Re: Compiz CPU usage dramatically increased in Ubuntu 14.04

[Furkan Alaca]

OK I think the problem is much worse than I originally thought. Even
moving around the mouse causes massive CPU usage.

For example, launch Nautilus, and move the mouse around inside it for
15-20 seconds or so. CPU usage jumps to 25% each for Xorg and nautilus,
and 15% for compiz. Similar results occur for any other program like say
Firefox.

I'm really getting horrible all-around lagginess out of Ubuntu 14.04
because of this out-of-control CPU usage. I don't understand why there
aren't widespread complaints about this? Is it only affecting a small
portion of users?

Bug description:
  It appears that the workload of low-level graphical operations used by
  compiz when, for example, moving windows has increased dramatically
  between Ubuntu 12.04 and Ubuntu 14.04.

  This might not be that visible when using high-end gpus, but should be
  clearly visible when using compiz on llvmpipe and to some-extent
  invalidates the approach of using compiz on top of llvmpipe as a
  fallback when no GPU is available:

  How to reproduce:
  1) Use the unity-3d desktop in Ubuntu 14.04 on top of a non-accelerating Xorg 
driver like modesetting. Move windows around. Note peak and average cpu-usage.

  How to verify compiz is the culprit:
  1) copy /usr/bin/compiz from a Ubuntu 12.04 installation. Drop it in as 
/usr/bin/compiz on 14.04. Reboot. Perform the same window movement. CPU-usage 
should be substantially lower.

  This problem also affects VMs running on VMware ESX with a software-
  rendering GPU. Window movement becomes sluggish, which suggests that
  even with GPUs, compiz has increased the number of operations required
  to move windows.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1337749] Re: High CPU usage after resizing a window

[Furkan Alaca]

A further comment: I noticed this bug report here which seems to report
a similar issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1293384

I also figured out that even moving the mouse around causes high CPU
usage. For example, launch Nautilus and move the mouse around inside it
for 15-20 seconds or so. My CPU usage jumps to 25% for Xorg, 25% for
nautilus, and 15% for compiz. Same thing happens with other programs
like Firefox. So I searched around some more and found this bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1250277

It seems that there's a chance all of these bug reports might be
related. I will test on my office PC soon, which has an nvidia card, and
report back.

  High CPU usage after resizing a window

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Background:

  Symptoms are 50-120% CPU usage when scrolling (especially Firefox),
  dragging around a window, resizing windows, basically any 2D graphics
  rendering on the desktop. This happens both in fglrx and the open
  source radeon driver. I started my debugging process by changing
  various settings, restarting, running top in a terminal, launching a
  Nautilus window, and quickly dragging it around with the mouse in
  circles while watching the CPU usage rise to around 50%. Resizing the
  window makes it jump to 100%+. Xorg and compiz are the culprits, with
  the CPU usage being split around 50/50 between them.

  Reproducing the issue:

  After a lot of searching I found some tips in the Arch Wiki article
  for the open source radeon driver, and I put together the following
  xorg.conf:

  Section Module
Load dri2
Load glamoregl 
  EndSection

  Section Device
  Identifier Radeon 6670
  Driver radeon
  Option  MigrationHeuristic  greedy
   Option AccelMethod   glamor
  EndSection

  After applying these settings, launching Nautilus and dragging it
  around only resulted in about 4% CPU usage each for xorg and compiz.
  Then, resizing the window (click and hold a side, and just keep moving
  the mouse left and right) made Xorg jump to 70% and compiz 50%. After
  that, when I start dragging the window around, CPU usage is back to
  around what it was originally: About 25% for compiz and 15% for Xorg.
  This exact behaviour happens after each reboot: The CPU usage is
  initially low when dragging the window around, but resizing it somehow
  messes things up and it never goes back to normal after that.

  I'm using a Radeon 6670 right now. I'll be receiving an R7 260X in
  about a week or so, so I won't be able to test with the exact same
  hardware, but I'm expecting at least similar behaviour since I also
  swapped in an R7 250 and was having the same issues.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1337749] Re: High CPU usage after resizing a window

[Furkan Alaca]

Abhijit, you're right scrolling in Chrome only uses around 40% or so.
I noticed it doesn't have smooth scrolling enabled. After disabling
smooth scrolling in Firefox (general.smoothScroll in about:config), CPU
usage dropped to about the same level as Chrome. Still extremely high
for just scrolling down a page, though.

I tested on the office computer today, which is a Core i7-920 w/ 6GB of
RAM and an Nvidia GT 9400 with the proprietary driver installed. I can
confirm that it suffers from the same problem (also running Ubuntu
14.04).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1293384] Re: Compiz CPU usage dramatically increased in Ubuntu 14.04

[Furkan Alaca]

Thomas, I'm also having Xorg/compiz CPU usage issues for which I
submitted bug report, and I was wondering if you could follow the steps
I outlined and see if you get similar results:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1337749

Basically on a fresh boot, launch top in a terminal to monitor CPU
usage. Then launch a Nautilus window and start moving it around, noting
CPU usage. Then resize the window, and try moving it around and see what
happens with the CPU usage.

For me, CPU usage jumps from 4% to around 30-40% (before/after the
resize) using the open source radeon driver. With fglrx it starts higher
at around 15-20%, and jumps to 60-70% after resizing. Even just
scrolling down a page in Firefox results in ~70% CPU usage.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1337749] Re: High CPU usage after resizing a window

[Furkan Alaca]

Update: I received my new card today (R7 260X). It isn't fully supported
under the 3.13 kernel, so I had to go back to fglrx. The same problem
still persists.

Title:
  High CPU usage after resizing a window

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Background:

  Symptoms are 50-120% CPU usage when scrolling (especially Firefox),
  dragging around a window, resizing windows, basically any 2D graphics
  rendering on the desktop. This happens both in fglrx and the open
  source radeon driver. I started my debugging process by changing
  various settings, restarting, running top in a terminal, launching a
  Nautilus window, and quickly dragging it around with the mouse in
  circles while watching the CPU usage rise to around 50%. Resizing the
  window makes it jump to 100%+. Xorg and compiz are the culprits, with
  the CPU usage being split around 50/50 between them.

  Reproducing the issue:

  After a lot of searching I found some tips in the Arch Wiki article
  for the open source radeon driver, and I put together the following
  xorg.conf:

  Section Module
Load dri2
Load glamoregl 
  EndSection

  Section Device
  Identifier Radeon 6670
  Driver radeon
  Option  MigrationHeuristic  greedy
   Option AccelMethod   glamor
  EndSection

  After applying these settings, launching Nautilus and dragging it
  around only resulted in about 4% CPU usage each for xorg and compiz.
  Then, resizing the window (click and hold a side, and just keep moving
  the mouse left and right) made Xorg jump to 70% and compiz 50%. After
  that, when I start dragging the window around, CPU usage is back to
  around what it was originally: About 25% for compiz and 15% for Xorg.
  This exact behaviour happens after each reboot: The CPU usage is
  initially low when dragging the window around, but resizing it somehow
  messes things up and it never goes back to normal after that.

  I'm using a Radeon 6670 right now. I'll be receiving an R7 260X in
  about a week or so, so I won't be able to test with the exact same
  hardware, but I'm expecting at least similar behaviour since I also
  swapped in an R7 250 and was having the same issues.

I started experiencing this after I switched from the mainline 3.11.6
kernel to the official Ubuntu-supported kernel.

  Confirmed

  After upgrading to 13.10 today, every time I unlock my computer after
  leaving it for a long time I get this prompt:

  --

  Power

  Automatic suspend

  Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity.

  However, the computer doesn't actually suspend.

  And even if I do this manually (which works) and then resume, the
  prompt is still there (and in that case, not true at all).

  This is ugly and seems broken!
