[Bug 1890436] Re: VGA signal is ghosted and stretched (IntelĀ® HD Graphics 2500)

2020-08-06 Thread Ioannis Barkas
Well this is a PC with onboard intel graphics. A memory issue would mean
RAM problem which is not the case here. I can see a visual corruption.
If you can't see it then there is nothing more to say here.

You are welcomed to see the dmesg and figure out what happens. There is
no hardware damage on my PC. This occurs with a specific BIOS setting as
I described above and it affects only ubuntu. Windows 10 2004 work fine
on my "damaged" PC. If you wish to get a screenshot from windows working
fine, I can upload it here.

I might test wayland at the evening but linux kernel detects the problem
and shouts about underrun error in FIFO A as the first attached image
with dmesg shows. So if you have anything usefull to write that is
related to this bug report, please do so. If you just continue to say
that my hardware is damaged you are free to close this bug right away. I
will try another distro and open another bug there...

2020-08-06 Thread Ioannis Barkas
Hello, thank you for your early reply! I am afraid that you haven't got
the big picture here. On my side, there is no doubt that I am getting a
visual corruption. Just take a look at the attached images.

The video signal is good since the monitor works normal when I enable
CSM setting in BIOS. As you have suggested, I used a different VGA cable
having double thickness than the initial one and I am still getting the
same behaviour. If it was a signalling issue the kernel would probably
not print any warning messages.

Since I have another VGA monitor on my desk, I went a step ahead and
connected this VGA monitor instead since I hadn't tested this case with
that monitor. As expected, I got exactly the same behaviour. That is
smooth display on VGA monitor when CSM is enabled and corruption when
CSM is disabled. As a proof of it, I am uploading images from the third
monitor. Take a closer look at the cursor as it has blank lines after
each horizontal line. As you can see, the same applies to fonts when
switching to console view. I am also uploading the X log with that
monitor.

[Bug 1890436] [NEW] Screen corruption with multi monitor setup

2020-08-05 Thread Ioannis Barkas
Public bug reported:


Hello, last week I was digging in the BIOS of my PC at work since I tried to 
see if there is a way to update the dbx for secure boot. Since there was no 
option to perform this task, I modified some settings. In detail, I disabled 
CSM in BIOS and that's when hell broke loose!

To get an idea about the hardware, the Lenovo machine isn't running the
latest BIOS as its updater is broken and won't update it within win or
its ISO image. It uses the previous version released by its
manufacturer.

The machine has an XGA VGA monitor and a WQHD DP monitor. When CSM is enabled 
the DP monitor is lit first and then the VGA one prior OS loading. When CSM is 
disabled it goes the other way around. The VGA monitor is lit and the DP one 
opens up during OS load. With CSM disabled the VGA monitor is the primary one 
and it is corrupted as you can see on the pictures I have attached.
Interestingly printing screens within Ubuntu does not capture the corruption 
problem I am getting as you can see on the pictures I have also attached. 
Neither X log contains anything useful. The issue is repeatable on every boot.

As I have seen on other bug reports, I have enabled DRM debug, captured
the dmesg using a huge buffer to get it and have uploaded it as well. I
hope that it will help you track this issue down and fix it soon. Since
I will be away some days for vacation, I will have physical access to it
till this Friday and will get back to work at the 24th of August. In the
mean time, I hope that someone will pinpoint the root cause of it and
prepare a patch.

Since this machine is running w10 2004, it should be noted that in win I
do not get any corruption at all either in CSM mode or UEFI mode.
