2020-04-28 Thread Paul Collinsworth
I replaced the Nvidia video card in my system and the problem seems to 
have gone with it.

I had seen an improvement with the Nvidia card after switching from the 
digital video output to the on-card VGA output, but over a period of a 
couple of weeks or so, the video degraded again.

The new card is a VisionTek Radeon 5450.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1860483] Re: screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-02-19 Thread Paul Collinsworth
The problem started at opening. Log-in to Ubuntu and there it is. Return 
from terminal or application, where the screen is normal, and there it 
is, or rather, there it was.

The "red scan type artifact", which covered the entire screen, has 
changed. The video problem now presents differently. I had sent in a 
screen shot of the artifact earlier, but that isn't the video artifact 
that shows up when I log in on my (now) secondary drive (drive "sdb").

I went into the system chassis yesterday and pulled the Nvidia 
GeForce7300 video card out completely and connected my monitor to the 
motherboard VGA connector. The video artifacts that I was seeing when I 
logged into my primary drive, drive "sda", haven't changed, but the 
artifacts as displayed when logging into sdb have. I've attached 
screenshots of the "new" artifacts.

I've not looked at the open source to see what might differentiate the 
video data flow when there's a video card installed versus what happens 
with the mb video circuit.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1860483] Re: [nouveau, GeForce 7300 LE] screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-02-03 Thread Paul Collinsworth
Thanks. I'm still working on my (sda) install of 18.04.3; haven't 
completely restored what I had on (sdb).

Fewer issues with either the operating system or applications failing to 
respond, and very few events where I/O handlers have seemingly disappeared.

Still have minor issues with screen presentation; none of the 
raster-type overlay in the desktop area though.

I'm going to try a re-install on the sdb drive after completing system 
restoration on sda. May be able to rule drive corruption in or out at 
that point.

Also considering replacing the Nvidia GeForce 7300 graphics card with 
something a bit less on the obsolete side.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1860483] Re: [nouveau, GeForce 7300 LE] screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-01-27 Thread Paul Collinsworth
Could be. Bug 1860178's write-up seems similar to 1860483.

I have been able to use "Settings" in the sda1 install, and switched the 
background to "black", at which point the raster type corruption in the 
desktop went away. Now there's occasionally an odd speckled background 
in the top tool bar, which blanks out to black around the top tool bar 
icons and text, leaving something that looks like video noise between 
the leftmost text/dropdown and the day/time text at the middle, and 
between that middle item and the rightmost icon set. At the same time, 
there's a little noise speckling on the left tool bar, and a bright 
narrow vertical line between the tool bar and the desktop region; all 
that blanks out to black too. The blanking-to-black occurs as the screen 
cursor is traversed over the tool bars.

I am occasionally getting a non-response for item icons associated with 
sda1 installs, just as I have been with items in sdb1. That kind of 
looks to me like the system is losing or overwriting the pointer to the 
app/item associated with the icon. For instance, I still can't get to 
sdb1's "Settings"; I can click on any one of the "Settings" icons, the 
activity indicator runs for a short period, stops, and nothing happens. 
I've waited for a few minutes, up to around 5 or so, just to see if it's 
a matter of timing, but nothing happens. And frequently, after that 
happens, other items become non-responsive as well, up to the point 
where the keyboard and mouse push-button handlers quit responding.

[Kernel-packages] Revoked ... Re: Oop! Re: [Bug 1860483] Re: [nouveau, GeForce 7300 LE] screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-01-26 Thread Paul Collinsworth
Spoke (wrote) too soon. The artifact is there, in the screen of the new 
install.

After the intitial install and restart, it wasn't there, while the 
system was running the intitial image from sda1. I then powered down and 
booted into sdb1, and, of course, the artifact was still present (well, 
why wouldn't it be? I hadn't changed anything.). I did some stuff there, 
since that's where my registered e-mail and 'net accounts are. Then I 
restarted again, booting up in sda1.

And the artifact was there.

BTW, the linux generics for sda1 are the version of 5.3 that was being 
loaded with the system installs yesterday. The sdb1 linux image set is 
still 5.5...

The artifact as displayed when sda1 is up seems to be slightly different 
from that of sdb1, but that may just be perceptual, due to the way the 
two desktops are populated.

Disregard the 1/25 12:37 AM message.

I reinstalled v18.04.3 and there's no problem with the system on that 
drive (sda1). There's a clear sharp "Bionic Beaver" line drawing.

I had managed to complete the install last night on the drive I'd been 
using, sdb2, and that still has the display problem.

A mixup happened at the mid-install restart; the bios was still queued 
up for boot on sdb2.

Another result. When I tried the v18.04.3 system preview from the USB 
FD, the background was "normal". I just finished installing the system, 
and the background now has the transparent red raster overlay. I could 
get to "Settings" though without locking up the system, so there was at 
least a marginal improvement there; haven't tried to reproduce any other 
the other "no response"/lockup failures.

There seems to be some sort of problem with nouveau, too. Or it may just 
be a hardware issue.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1860483] Re: [nouveau, GeForce 7300 LE] screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-01-24 Thread Paul Collinsworth
Perhaps I should just get a new GPU card. Or a new system.

In the meantime, at boot this morning, the first thing I tried to do 
after log-in was to access "Settings"; no response. After a few minutes 
of 'nothing happening', I clicked the e-mail ("Thunderbird") icon; no 
response there, as well. Went to the shutdown/restart panel (the 
pull-down at the upper right), clicked "Restart", the system reported 
that there was no response from "Thunderbird", switched to an 
unpopulated version (no desktop icons or tool bars) of my screen 
background image (with none of the corrupting artifact) and stalled.

Pushed the "big red reset" button (power), let it sit for a minute or 
two, booted, and after log-in, went straight to e-mail, which behaved 
more-or-less normally, accessed the 'net (no particular loss of browser 
functionality), and here I am.

Nvidia 304 is a familiar number. I had to re-install that thing several 
years ago; seems to me that it was pre-16.04, in fact. Took more than 
one iteration of the install process to get it functioning properly; 
recollection is that there was some issue with the digital video output. 
I did have to switch to the VGA output on the board a couple of years 
ago. Something finally got permanently hosed on the digital interface 
side, and that may be the root cause now - some sort of problem in the 
VGA interface.

Yes. Re-installed. uname reports 5.5.0. and the screen is back to 
the red raster diagonal mess.

Doesn't look like it - uname returned 4.16.0-74-generic #84-Ubuntu SMP.

May have overlaid the new generic by running APT upgrade. I'll try 
re-installing.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1860483] Re: [nouveau] screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-01-23 Thread Paul Collinsworth
OTOH, I tried APT update and upgrade after the installation didn't 
change things and I did get a screen change. Attached is a post-restart 
screenshot.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1860483] Re: [nouveau] screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-01-23 Thread Paul Collinsworth
I thought that might be the case, and looked in a couple of the /var 
subdirectories and didn't see dkms. I may run a more exhaustive search 
before trying the new linux install. I'll be doing that within an hour 
or so; had to be out most of the day on other business.

At the moment the system with the fault is backing up a bunch of work 
files. I have another drive on the system and may install 18.04.3 if the 
issue doesn't resolve with the new linux install (that alternate drive 
is just sitting there with 16.04 and hasn't been in use).

2020-01-23 Thread Paul Collinsworth
If dkms is installed, where is it in the filesystem? I checked /var and 
it isn't there - and I run a (more-or-less) standard system, with regard 
to file organization; don't know that I have any modules that require dkms.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1860483] Re: [nouveau] screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-01-22 Thread Paul Collinsworth
Should I try all the amd64 packages, i.e. headers, images, and modules 
in both generic and low latency flavors, or is there a specific package? 
I've pulled down the entire amd64 set, and the headers-all as well.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1860483] Re: [nouveau] screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-01-22 Thread Paul Collinsworth
I tried "Ubuntu on Wayland". Crash. Logged in. Screen loaded improperly 
and keyboard and mouse froze; handlers blocked and who knows what else. 
The screen didn't have the red artifact though; it had a cluster of 
diagonal black and white scan lines covering about the middle third of 
the screen, an incomplete population of the left hand tool bar icons I 
use and none of the desktop icons. The top tool bar seemed complete, but 
was non-functional.

Tried "Unity" while I was at it, and that was a complete flop 
post-log-in. Blank screen, except for an oversized audio slider icon at 
the top right and the cursor arrow, and the cursor was frozen; once 
again, no handlers.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1860483] Re: [nouveau] screen background overlaid with scan type artifact in red

2020-01-22 Thread Paul Collinsworth
I encountered an issue after advising you that 18.04.3 works. Perhaps it 
sheds some light on the problem.

It occurred to me that perhaps there is a graphics issue and that part 
of what I was seeing is contamination of the background image I was 
using. So I tried to open "Settings" in order to revert to the default 
image. Didn't work; that is, "Settings" doesn't work. No response. I can 
click on "Settings" on either toolbar or try to access it through "Show 
Applications" and no response.

What's more, after getting no response there, other stuff is locked out 
and doesn't respond. I have to reboot to get functionality back. In 
getting to reboot, the shutdown process does report that anything I've 
tried to open or start, after trying to reach "Settings", isn't 
responding, and then it hangs. If I click on "Power down" again at that 
point, it doesn't, it just puts up an image and stalls (the image it 
displays is the background image I've been using, without the toolbars 
and the contaminant artifact!). At that point, I've just hit the power 
switch.

I've not tried "Ubuntu on Wayland" or the test kernel package. I'll see 
what happens there. I can boot into the prior Linux generic via grub; 
haven't tried to pull up any apps there, but the image issue was still 
there.

Loaded a USB with 18.04.3 and the problem wasn't there. The screen, 
apart from the tool bars, was the default Ubuntu screen with nothing 
unusual about it.

  My desktop has both it's usual items in place; toolbar on left and
