Re: nvidia-driver rebooting machine on X startup

2007-09-25 Thread falz
 Maybe someone can build a WITNESS/DDB kernel, since dumping seems to be
 failing?

I compiled these options in last night, but I'm afraid I'm not quite
sure what special steps I need to do to utilize those options, if any.
I built that kernel, booted into it, started xorg with the nvidia
driver, it immediately reboots just as it did before.

Something else that's odd that just started happening that's similar
to the original poster- their xorg.conf was being truncated to zero
bytes. Mine somehow gets changed to what appears to be a different
version. The bottom line in it is about 20 Us, and the 'Driver
nvidia' lines I added were gone. I have several xorg.conf files
named other things, but none have these characteristics.

I fear it's a hard reboot then, if DDB doesn't catch anything. DDB is a kernel 
debugger, even if dump isn't on, it will catch panic stages.

Stray bytes and truncated files are another sign of hard reboot. I'm afraid 
only nvidia can catch this one. Try downgrading to Xorg 7.2 and use the 97xx 
series of the driver, then freeze it until you see some solution posted :p

In some situations that will not work... for example 7.2 completely
fails on a P35 chipset... see my update post for some ideas.

nvidia-driver rebooting machine on X startup

2007-09-24 Thread falz
I came across this thread on freebsd-questions after some searching on
google. I have the exact same issue as others here- if xorg is started
with 'nvidia' as the driver, instant reboot. However, my machine is a
100% fresh install with things compiled from source this weekend.
However, I did have to install some binary vncserver packages, but
they have since been removed.

I did the 'xorg' meta port which got me the current xorg-7.3_1. The
machine I did the install on was running Debian Unstable for about a
year without issue with the same hardware (two cards for 3 monitors):

Sep 24 13:41:24 falz kernel: nvidia0: GeForce 7100 GS mem
0xdd00-0xddff,0xb000-0xbfff,0xde00-0xdeff irq
16 at device 0.0 on pci1
Sep 24 13:41:24 falz kernel: nvidia0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
Sep 24 13:41:24 falz kernel: nvidia1: GeForce FX 5200 mem
0xdb00-0xdbff,0xc000-0xcfff irq 18 at device 2.0 on
pci3
Sep 24 13:41:24 falz kernel: nvidia1: [GIANT-LOCKED]

I went through many of the steps people spoke of earlier in this
thread, which were some AGP workarounds that are mentioned in Chapter
9:

/usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver/work/NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86-100.14.11/doc/README

No matter what is done, always an instant reboot if I use the nvidia
driver in the xorg.conf. Out of curiosity, is anyone actively using
xorg-7.3_1 with nvidia-driver-100.14.11 and having it work?

I too am not quite sure what to look for in the output of 'ldconfig
-r', but I can see that there is nothing linked against any pre-xorg
7.x stuff there:

# ldconfig -R | grep X11 | wc -l
   0

Also, the person who had things linked that were stale appears to have
been having a different problem that does NOT cause a reboot:

I forgot, but was there one person in the thread that has only 1 monitor

Ironically, we have one system with CRT + TV-OUT through one card, with no 
issues whatsoever (500GB HDD, DVDRW, rock on!). However I turned off Xinerama 
support from the get go and use TwinView.

With all the Xorg 7.3 issues, I have not gone that road nor plan to anytime 
soon.

I also think we've had all the different cards by now, a quatro, GeForce 5k, 
7k, 6k...

I was the single monitor issue, on the single monitor it does not
reboot unless you set probe_all_gpu's *BUT* it does fail to reconize
all nVidia cards (so does nv)... as far I can tell neither drive
understands 64bit io space and PCI/AGP... the clue is the addr
conflicts that everyone seems to get... btw I think it might of fried
my 8k but at least gives me vesa with no weird video probs on the 5200
GT I have now (1024x768 ;-()).

On 9/18/07, Eric Ekong [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

The update alone hasn't done anything for me, but I'm thinking I'm
suffering from an issue not directly related to the driver itself;
stale libraries like Mel suggested, or something.

I just completed an update to xorg-7.3_1 following the procedure in
UPDATING 20070519. Now running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p7 and
nvidia-driver-100.14.11 and the reboot still occurs when starting X.

Something else I noticed is that my xorg.conf gets truncated to 0
bytes when I 'startx' and hit a reboot. I can't figure what would
cause this, and it's intermittent (post reboot I'll sometimes see the
file whole whole, sometimes truncated). Must be connected somehow to
the reboot?

On the off chance it had anything to do with stale libraries, how
would I determine which those were and how to right what is wrong? I
don't see anything notable in the output of ldconfig -r, but I'm not
certain I know what to look for. I'll include the ldconfig* related
configurations from rc.conf and ldconfig -r output below. Any other
ideas?

Just tried it and:

1. It is just a ABI upgrade so it doesn't get rejected by 7.3 (same
version as the old driver)

2. Doesn't fix any issues with my P35 chipset and a 5400 GS

 I've had the same issue, but I think I solved it since its working for
 me.  If I had to guess, this was Jul 27, 2007 that I went through this.

 I did something similar or harder in May 2007, but the driver versions
 were older then and so was the ports tree -- it was also on 6.2-release-p2.

I setup to save dumpcrash, nothing was saved so I think it is just a
reboot.

I believe I deleted all the patch files here other then you see listed

I also edited the source code to remove a #ifdef around FreeBSD 7.x so
that it used the 6.x version even though its on 7.x. (argument list to
the function was wrong) This might be fixed by now.  This was a hard
compile error though, not the coredumps and reboots

I do know this drove me f'ing bonkers when I tried to set this and was
going to file a PR but $work never game me time.

  Running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4 SMP i386.

  I installed nvidia-driver-100.14.11 from ports (Sep. 5 snapshot),
  Linux compatibility enabled. After loading modules 'linux' and
  'nvidia', I do:

  # X -configure
  # X -config /root/xorg.conf.new

  At this point the system spontaneously reboots. 'X -configure' runs
  fine and produces a configuration without issue, but the reboot
  occcurs when launching X. Nothing is output to screen (it flickers
 as if starting X), and nothing is written to /var/log/Xorg.0.log. I
 do get the same behavior if running 'xorgcfg'.

  Card info:

  NV41 [Quadro FX 3450/4000 SDI] rev 162

  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:0:0: class=0x03 card=0x029b10de chip=0x00cd10de
  rev=0xa2 hdr=0x00
  vendor   = 'NVIDIA Corporation'
  class= display
  subclass = VGA

  I've tried an alternate version of the binary driver
  (nvidia-driver-96xx) to see if there was any change, and it also
  reboots on X startup.


  --
  Check your AGP settings and consult the readme, chapter 9, for the
 latest driver.  You should be running the latest driver with your
 card.

  Make sure you have the correct AGP settings, either letting FreeBSD
 do it in the kernel or disable the kernel and let the Nvidia driver
 manage it.
   
So, I'm not having terrific luck with any combination of settings I
try.
   
The latest FreeBSD driver release from Nvidia is the same as the
version in the ports tree. This is what I've installed.
   
Attempting the AGPGART route (building the driver with
WITH_FREEBSD_AGP=yes and disabling NvAgp support in xorg.conf) still
results in a reboot.
   
Going the NvAGP route (Building without support for AGPGART, setting
NvAgp to 1 in the xorg.conf, and setting hint.agp.0.disabled=1 in
/boot/device.hints) also results in a reboot when X starts. One thing
I notice here; when I specify hint.agp.0.disabled=1, and check the
output of 'kldstat -v' after booting, I still see several agp drivers
loaded:
   
$ kldstat -v |grep -i agp
387 pci/agp_ali
388 pci/agp_amd
389 pci/agp_amd64
390 pci/agp_ati
391 pci/agp_i810
392 pci/agp_intel
393 pci/agp_nvidia
394 pci/agp_sis
395 pci/agp_via
   
Is this a problem?
   
I suspect a couple of problems with what I'm doing

  Running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4 SMP i386.

  I installed nvidia-driver-100.14.11 from ports (Sep. 5 snapshot),
  Linux compatibility enabled. After loading modules 'linux' and
  'nvidia', I do:

  # X -configure
  # X -config /root/xorg.conf.new

  At this point the system spontaneously reboots. 'X -configure' runs
  fine and produces a configuration without issue, but the reboot
  occcurs when launching X. Nothing is output to screen (it flickers
 as if starting X), and nothing is written to /var/log/Xorg.0.log. I
 do get the same behavior if running 'xorgcfg'.

  I've tried an alternate version of the binary driver

  Check your AGP settings and consult the readme, chapter 9, for the
 latest driver.  You should be running the latest driver with your
 card.

  Make sure you have the correct AGP settings, either letting FreeBSD
 do it in the kernel or disable the kernel and let the Nvidia driver
 manage it.
   
So, I'm not having terrific luck with any combination of settings I
try.
   
The latest FreeBSD driver release from Nvidia is the same as the
version in the ports tree. This is what I've installed.
   
Attempting the AGPGART route (building the driver with
WITH_FREEBSD_AGP=yes and disabling NvAgp support in xorg.conf) still
results in a reboot.
   
Going the NvAGP route (Building without support for AGPGART, setting
NvAgp to 1 in the xorg.conf, and setting hint.agp.0.disabled=1 in
/boot/device.hints) also results in a reboot when X starts. One thing
I notice here; when I specify hint.agp.0.disabled=1, and check the
output of 'kldstat -v' after booting, I still see several agp drivers
loaded:
   
$ kldstat -v |grep -i agp
387 pci/agp_ali
388 pci/agp_amd
389 pci/agp_amd64
390 pci/agp_ati

392 pci/agp_intel
393 pci/agp_nvidia
394 pci/agp_sis
395 pci/agp_via
   
Is this a problem?
   
I suspect a couple of problems with what I'm doing. Number one,
there's several knobs to turn (in the driver, in the OS, etc.) and
it's possible I'm not getting the correct combination. Other thing is,
I've been told by a technician that this is a PCI Express video card,
so would AGP even come into play?
  
   Probably not. I'm seeing the same thing on one machine, no AGP on MB, and
   agp kernel modules loaded, but nvidia-driver doesn't care about it.
   Let's kill all red herrings:
   - Is COMPAT5X in the kernel?
 
  COMPAT5X doesn't show up anywhere in /usr/src/; I do have 'options
  COMPAT_FREEBSD5'  defined, though (stock SMP kernel).
 
   - Does running `nvidia-xconfig --query-gpu-info' reboot the system?
   - If you do not load the nvidia kernel module, but use Xorg's nv driver
   does this reboot the system?
 
  No, doesn't reboot the system. Output attached below.

  have success with the two output displays and xinerama window sizing.

nvidia-driver rebooting machine on X startup

2007-09-06 Thread Darren Spruell
Wondering if this is a known issue, or if anyone has suggestions to
get it working...?

Running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4 SMP i386.

I installed nvidia-driver-100.14.11 from ports (Sep. 5 snapshot),
Linux compatibility enabled. After loading modules 'linux' and
'nvidia', I do:

# X -configure
# X -config /root/xorg.conf.new

At this point the system spontaneously reboots. 'X -configure' runs
fine and produces a configuration without issue, but the reboot
occcurs when launching X. Nothing is output to screen (it flickers as

get the same behavior if running 'xorgcfg'.

I've tried an alternate version of the binary driver
(nvidia-driver-96xx) to see if there was any change, and it also
reboots on X startup.

No, nothing gets to the log before reboot occurs.

Not using either of nvAgp or FreeBSD Agp, that I'm aware of. I did not
enable FREEBSD_AGP at build time.

 X actually overwrites libraries that nvidia-driver installs so you have
 to reinstall nvidia-driver every time you upgrade X.
 I remember having had some bad crashes some time ago because X overwrote
 nvidia GLX libraries.

 Best regards,

Nope - driver was the most recent thing installed.

I'm looking into AGP options as suggested earlier... didn't realize
that this _needed_ AGP support to function.

Cause I checked 3 working nvidia xorg configs for 3 different cards and none 
of them has Section Display in them, let alone 20 of them :p

 No, nothing gets to the log before reboot occurs.

 Not using either of nvAgp or FreeBSD Agp, that I'm aware of. I did not
 enable FREEBSD_AGP at build time.

Run nvidia-xconfig, it'll generate a much cleaner xorg.conf file, enable nvAgp 
and load a few less extensions. If that one works, you can start diffing and 
adding things again to figure out the cause (if you're interested :p).

Also check /boot/device.hints and disable Agp there. A GeForce 6200 for 
instance, insists on it, while other cards don't, but I never had one reboot 
the machine. I just get:

agp0: Intel 82845 host to AGP bridge mem 0xf800-0xfbff at device 0.0 
on pci0
NVRM: detected agp.ko, aborting NVIDIA AGP setup!

echo 'hint.agp.0.disabled=1' /boot/device.hints should do it.
