[Bug 1942616] Re: Settings Power says high hardware temperature

2022-01-27 Thread Olivier Robert
That's obviously a bug, since it makes the interface inconsistent.
However, it would be interesting to know if setting performance on the
interface actually changes anything, i.e. sets EPP to high performance.

[Bug 1942616] Re: Settings Power says high hardware temperature

2021-11-19 Thread Olivier Robert
I confirm the problem on Impish (21.10), and didn't have it on 21.04.
While I have indeed Turbo Boost turned off, it shouldn't behave like
that for two reasons :

- The message is false, there is no temperature problem.
- On CPUs with hardware-driven P-states (HWP) on, the performance mode of the 
control panel sets the Energy Performance Preference (EPP) of the CPU to high 
performance. While maybe not very useful, it's still possible technically to 
have Turbo Boost off and EPP set to high performance, and I don't see why it 
shouldn't be possible through Gnome.

I suspect Gnome checks the "no turbo" flag as a thermal trip indicator,
which it is not.

[Bug 1848746] Re: Refresh rate change requests to 40Hz are "adjusted" back to 60Hz

2021-08-05 Thread Olivier Robert
Hi Cameron,

I didn't go upstream yet. I suppose upstream bugs should be filed to the
Intel Open Source Technology Center (https://01.org/), but I'm not sure.
Or maybe to the Linux kernel since it's an in-tree module after all...

From what I understand, the Intel module fails to switch to anything
else than the refreshing rate that's on the preferred (i.e. first
mentioned on EDID) DTD.

However, it seems to me the first DTD usually has the highest refresh
rate, which makes your problem strange. Could that mean the 60 Hz DTD is
the preferred one on your laptop's panel, despite it being able to go up
to 135 Hz ?

Also, are you sure you're using true Xorg, not Xorg on Wayland ? Bcos on
any readings on the latter would be mostly irrelevant as they don't
necessary reflect the reality (Xorg on Wayland being only a
compatibility layer). From what I've seen, when asking for a reduced
refresh rate, even if it fails, Wayland seems to try to near the target
refresh rate by syncing frames to a factor of the effective refresh
rate. That's why on a previous post, when trying to get 60Hz on my
144Hz-capable monitor, I was getting 72 fps with glxgears... But in your
case of trying to get 135 from an effective 60, Wayland surely can't do
this trick.

Anyway, you can get the EDID from sysfs easily. On my current config,
mine is in /sys/class/drm/card0-eDP-1/edid. You should have something
similar. To quicky decode the EDID, you can use edid-decode (from the
edid-decode package), most basically like this :

edid-decode /sys/class/drm/card0-eDP-1/edid

Then you can create a modified, hex-edited EDID file, with the two DTDs 
swapped, put it somewhere under the /lib/firmware directory and add the 
following in a file inside /etc/modprobe.d :
options drm edid_firmware=eDP-1:mydir/myedid.bin

eDP-1 is your connector name, for me it's eDP-1 but for you it can be
something else. You can also omit "eDP-1:", in which case the EDID will
apply to all connectors. While I didn't check myself, I suppose it will
be a problem if you plug your laptop on an external monitor.

Also, if the module is loaded while the system is still on the initramfs, it 
won't work since your modified EDID won't be there, hence you will have to add 
it with an initramfs hook in /etc/initramfs-tools/hooks. The file should look 
like this :
--- File starts after this line -
#!/bin/sh

PREREQ=""

prereqs () {
echo "$PREREQ"
}

case "$1" in
prereqs)
prereqs
exit 0
;;
esac

. /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions

copy_file edid /lib/firmware/mydir/myedid.bin
- File ends before this line -

Make the file belong to root:root and mode 555 (readable/executable by
all). You should then update your initramfs with update-initramfs -u (to
update the initramfs for the current running kernel) or update-initramfs
-u -k all (to update for all installed kernels, or you can specify a
kernel). And reboot...

Hope this helps !

[Bug 1896250] Re: SDL support is missing while virglrenderer has problems with GTK

2021-07-04 Thread Olivier Robert
Nice, thanks !

I've got a new laptop in the meantime, where I will likely use Intel's
GVT-g GPU virtualisation feature (my old hardware couldn't), hence no
need for virglrenderer, but of course that's only me. Moreover,
virglrenderer still has the advantage of being hardware-independent.

Additionally, SDL has the advantage of completely grabbing the keyboard,
as I remember having the problem that a Ctrl-Alt-Del wasn't caught using
GTK (but maybe I don't remember correctly, because that sounds odd),
while it clearly works fine with SDL.

[Bug 1628707] Re: Highlighting a region in emacs is invisible because region color equals window color

2021-06-07 Thread Olivier Robert
This problem has been around for a long time now...

It's probably compiled-in, and comes from the region face setup. By
default, the region face background is set to gtk_selection_bg_color,
which must correspond to light grey.

It's possible to change this from the X interface in Options =>
Customize Emacs => Top-level Customization Group, and from there going
to the following subgroups : Faces => Basic Faces. Scroll down to the
region face, and choose the background of your choice. Then, go back up
in the buffer, click Apply and save and you're done.

You could also choose another theme instead : Options => Customize Emacs
=> Custom Themes. Choose your theme and click Save Theme Settings.

2021-06-07 Thread Olivier Robert
Some more information.

It seems the problem comes from the fact that the concept of a
background color has been deprecated in recent versions of GTK, and no
replacement has been made in the Emacs code :
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2017-09/msg01099.html

Emacs fails to load an appropriate bg color and seems to default to this
almost invisible light grey.

2021-05-23 Thread Olivier Robert
Got a new laptop w/144Hz and 60Hz display frequencies available,

Same problem, this time when trying to switch to 60Hz :

As a side note, on Wayland sessions, it seems it tries to behave like it
did switch to 60Hz, with glxgears vsyncing at around 70Hz. Strange...

I suppose I should go upstream for this bug, since it doesn't seem it
will be addressed any time soon here. I didn't mod my EDID yet, but the
workaround likely still works. I will come back if it doesn't.

Maybe old bug reports are incorrectly attached to newer packages.

Focal, Bionic and others also have "zombie updates" : update-notifier on
Focal, gnome-calculator and nautilus on Bionic. Those last two have been
zombified more than one year ago (moreover at the same time it seems).
Have a look here : https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/phased-

Considering all those first go through proposed, the phasing system is
an ultimate security system in case something slipped through, which

I wonder if it could be a bug related to the crash reporting software
instead. What looks strange (but maybe I'm not reading it correctly) is
that the publishing history indicates it was brought back to 0% even
before it was put at 10% : https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/groovy/amd64
/gnome-shell

It seems to me it should at least collect some data before phasing out,
so maybe the bug is somewhere else or it has been blocked manually...

The qemu package looks affected too, maybe it's not a coincidence that
it has been published only a few days before :

As a consequence, update-manager users won't get the update. Is it

2020-11-30 Thread Olivier Robert
While it seems to be a "virtual hardware" problem, I'm not sure the
problem comes from Qemu. Right now the problem doesn't change much for
me, as I have to patch Qemu for another bug that's not yet addressed, so
adding SDL in the process doesn't change anything timewise.

In fact we do have a crash, but it's an Android crash. Not sure to what
extent it could be used for diagnosis though... And honestly, I don't
think trying Qemu 5.1 will change anything !

You're right, I will have to report this to the mailing list (along with

I guess the next step would be to confirm that upgrading to Qemu 5.0

I'll wait until november when I will upgrade to Groovy.

However, I doubt it will really solve the problem, now I tend to stick

[Bug 1896250] Re: SDL support is missing while virglrenderer has problems with GTK

2020-10-07 Thread Olivier Robert
Hello Christian,

I should have pointed that the log is from the Android system, not Qemu
or my host system !

I got the failure message running the following command in an Android
shell :

logcat '*:F'

(which means display log entries from all facilities (*), with the Fatal
(F) severity)

It seems indeed that Fosshub has a hosting problem with the Android-x86
images, I'll have to report this to the project maintainer.

You seem to experience the same crash as I do. Bootloader OK, the GUI is
responsive at the beginning, and it crashes after a variable amount of
time.

You're right, the bug #1898490 looks like it could be related, I don't
see the virgl=on option, but I suppose it's on by default.

I normally have those messages on my Qemu instance :
gl_version 45 - core profile enabled
GLSL feature level 430
virtio_input_hid_handle_status: unknown type 20
virtio_input_hid_handle_status: unknown type 20

The virtio_input_hid messages don't seem to be a problem, and certainly
unrelated to the Android 9.0 crashing problem since at the time I tried
with other, non-virtio input devices, I didn't have that message but it
was still crashing the same way.

It happens that I have that "stale GL error" from time to time, that
almost always corresponds to an app not displaying properly in Android.
Generally, quitting and restarting the app solves the problem, but not
always, there are cases and Android apps that never worked correctly
with virglrenderer, such as Armello.

So, virglrenderer seems less stable with Android (or is it virtio-vga
?). In particular, switching from the surfaceflinger OpenGL display to a
VGA, non-OpenGL console display (Alt+F1) never worked correctly (Alt+F7
to go back to the surfaceflinger display).

However, as I said before, it seems to me it shouldn't behave
differently depending on which display, GTK or SDL, is used.

Concerning other frontends, I'm not familiar with those since my setup
isn't headless : I'm not a server guy, I run the emulator on my laptop,
so apart from GTK and SDL, it's not clear to me if I could run something
else that would give me 3D acceleration. Moreover, my hardware is more
than 6 years old now, and lacks some virtualisation capabilities that
could serve as an alternative to virglrenderer.

Anyway virglrenderer is still pre 1.0 so I guess it's the prime suspect
after all.

I will upgrade to Groovy next month, I'll keep you informed on that (I
may even try Qemu 5.0 before upgrading).

Hi Paride,

Sorry about that, they probably block direct linking.

Try that link instead : https://www.fosshub.com/Android-x86.html

Then, choose the "Android-x86 64-bit ISO file", version "9.0-r2". If it
still doesn't work, you could try the Android-x86 project web site :
https://www.android-x86.org/

You can choose Download from there, and you will be presented with two

You need to download the Android 9.0r2 ISO image from the Android-x86
project. Here's a link for the 64-bit image (I chose the non k49 one) :

https://www.fosshub.com/Android-x86.html?dwl=android-x86_64-9.0-r2.iso

Then boot the image in Qemu :
qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35,vmport=off -cpu host -accel kvm -smp 2 -m 4G 
-audiodev pa,id=pasound,timer-period=5000 -device ES1370,audiodev=pasound 
-device virtio-vga,virgl=on -device virtio-mouse -device virtio-keyboard -drive

-display gtk,gl=on -usb -nodefaults -monitor vc -nic

It shouldn't take long before the screen freezes. Here's the associated log

It seems the problem doesn't happen when using the Android 8.1-r3 image,
or I didn't try long enough. As I said, using SDL "solves" the problem.

One could argue the problem is with Android itself, but then why would
it react differently depending on which frontend, GTK or SDL, is used ?
Shouldn't it be transparent to the emulated system ?

I saw other people reporting the problem on a russian forum (don't
remember which one), not anywhere else (I searched only for Android
problems with virglrenderer). I had to translate since I'm not russian
myself (I'm french). Interestingly, shortly after reporting the bug
here, I was contacted by a Russian who confirmed he had the same
problem.

I switched to Focal in May and the bug is still there. The EDID
workaround still works.

I must be the only one switching to 40Hz sometimes, or it only affects
my GPU, which I doubt (Intel HD Graphics 4600, CPU Core i7-4710MQ).

[Bug 1896250] [NEW] SDL support is missing while virglrenderer has problems with GTK

2020-09-18 Thread Olivier Robert
Public bug reported:

Disabling SDL support may have its reasons, but I guess that means I may
be the only one using the virglrenderer library, because it has problems
running with the GTK frontend.

I've been emulating an Android 9.0 device since Eoan, and it took me
some time to understand Qemu's GTK frontend and virglrenderer were
interacting badly. That may very well be a problem with virglrenderer,
not Qemu, but still, using SDL is a good way around it.

Currently it doesn't change anything for me as I have to rebuild to
insert a personal patch anyway, but I thought it may be worth
mentioning, since people may experience problems with virglrenderer they
don't know how to solve.

[Bug 1851123] Re: Ubuntu 19.10 and focal live cloned create and mount casper-rw partition

2019-11-22 Thread Olivier Robert via ubuntu-bugs
@nio-wiklund, @mwhudson : Thanks for your replies.

@nio-wiklund : Your solution would probably do the trick, but has the
inconvenient of indiscriminately replacing a string with another in the
whole image, hence possibly in places where it's not desired.

I think I will rather do one of those two things :

1. Create a partition that occupies the remaining space on the USB
stick, hence preventing the live image from creating (and writing to)
one without my consent

2. Create a custom Grub config file on the EFI partition on the stick,
specifying my own parameters

The first solution is the most straightforward, has the advantage the
stick can be used for additional purposes, but the inconvenient that
it's hardware-dependent (not all sticks have the same size). To have the
integrity check work, I would have to rehash after modifying, and
maintain different hashes, one hash per stick.

The second solution requires more changes, but would work for all
sticks. It probably won't work if I boot the stick on a non-EFI BIOS
though. For integrity-checking purposes I would have to rehash too, but
would only require one hash for all sticks.

Concerning your change proposal, adding an additional entry to Grub
solves indeed the problem of risking a typo compared to having to type
"nopersistent" and/or "toram" at every boot, to avoid undesired writes.
However, it still requires to never forget interrupting the boot
process.

@mwhudson : Imho, the current situation of the 19.10 live image can be
considered a bug, since it changes a default that has been there for
more than a decade, and that's in many minds, that a live OS image is
volatile.

That's not due to a coding error, like most bugs are, but rather in
comparison to usually expected behaviour, or "untold specification".

Moreover, your reasons for wanting it to become a default are unclear,
especially considering that the ones who want persistence could achieve
that by passing a one-time option at boot, and being OK for subsequent
boots, which obviously people who don't want persistence can't do,
precisely because they don't want persistence.

For these reasons it can be worth clarifying, outside of a bug process
why not. I just started a thread :

[Bug 1851123] Re: Ubuntu 19.10 and focal live cloned create and mount casper-rw partition

2019-11-13 Thread Olivier Robert via ubuntu-bugs
Imho, the default behaviour should be overall read-only, as it's more in
line with the general perception of a live system as an "I'm just
looking" thing. Straying away from this concept could make more than a
few people uncomfortable.

Moreover, having a default write behaviour can have adverse consequences
in the long term. May a bug arise, there is an increased probability
that it would behave destructively, especially considering that we're
facing scripted automatic partitioning, which isn't quite the least
potentially destructive operation.

On one hand, I understand there are use cases when people want to have
installer logs handy on their stick, and having to pass "persistent"
each and every time on the command line can be a problem. But On the
other hand, there are people who don't want their USB stick written to
for several reasons, one being to perform an integrity check before
booting (such an unattended write operation would make subsequent
integrity checks fail). The only option for these users is to remember
adding "nopersistent" each and every time, and with no typing mistake of
course, and not forgetting to interrupt the boot process, otherwise
there's a write, and it's too late.

It seems to me there should be a solution to make both worlds happy,
such as requiring people who want log persistence to pass "persistent"
or why not "persistent-log" once on the command line. The system would
then create the partition the way it's currently done by default, and
during further boots with the default parameters, the system would check
if a "casper-rw" volume exists on the live support, and if yes, mount it
rw.

Additionnally, to address @cscameron's remark, it could be indeed useful
to be able to limit the space automatically allotted to casper-rw on the
live medium, such as defining an additional parameter to specify its
size, either absolute or relative (as a percentage), but another
solution that's already working is to create and format the volume
manually (don't forget to label "casper-rw") and specify its size, which
is a one time operation, hence should not be too much of a burden.

[Bug 1852368] [NEW] 19.10 live image has persistence enabled by default

2019-11-12 Thread Olivier Robert via ubuntu-bugs
Public bug reported:

I'm not sure it's the correct place to report this...

When I boot from the 19.10 live image on a USB stick (at least my USB
stick, on my computer), the live system creates and formats an
additional partition on my stick, labeled "casper-rw" that's mounted
read-write on /var/crash and /var/log.

Passing the "nopersistent" parameter prevents that behaviour. I tried on
a specially crafted disk image on qemu comprising the unmodified live
image, followed by 1 GiB of zeroes, to simulate a USB stick with some
remaining space.

I didn't have that problem with the 19.04 live image, on the exact same
hardware.

Could it be that the system now interprets my USB stick as non-removable
media, hence assuming persistence as the default, or is everyone else
affected ?

Defaulting to persistence poses problems :
- integrity checks on the USB stick fail, since it the partition table has been 
modified
- Despite passing the "toram" parameter, the USB stick can't be ejected without 
performing additional operations

2019-11-10 Thread Olivier Robert via ubuntu-bugs
Interesting. Just my two (Euro) cents, could that be related to the
Nvidia drivers being loaded early in the boot process, and being in the
initramfs ?

Imho, the only things that should reside in the initramfs are the tools
needed for the kernel to get access to the root filesystem, period. No
need for fancy graphics before that, and I'm sure even people encrypting
their root fs could be happy with an "ugly" password prompt. I mean,
fancy graphics are nice, but that's worth nothing if the system is
unbootable, and playing with the early boot process shouldn't be done
lightly.

I too had problems with my system being unbootable after upgrade
(related to the Nvidia driver too), and among other things I removed
everything that was setting the FRAMEBUFFER initramfs option, because
that's what brings the Nvidia driver in the initramfs. I wasn't sure
that solved my problem though, but now that I read that removing the
splash option from the kernel command line solves a similar problem, I'm
thinking about it again...

On my laptop, two files were setting the FRAMEBUFFER option : /etc
/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash that was created upon installing the MATE
desktop environment, and a configuration hook script that was installed
by the crypsetup-initramfs package. I removed the first file and purged
the crypsetup-initramfs package, and got no more Nvidia GPU driver in
the initramfs !

[Bug 1848746] Re: Refresh rate change requests to 40Hz are "adjusted" back to 60Hz

2019-11-04 Thread Olivier Robert via ubuntu-bugs
I made the switch to 19.10 and the problem is the same in the logs.
There is a slight difference however, the screen doesn't flicker any
more upon the change request. I suppose it now detects the adjusted
modeline is the same as the current one, hence nothing to do.

Here's some output extracted from dmesg (ISO date format) :

2019-11-04T16:39:13,088276+01:00 [drm:intel_dump_pipe_config [i915]] requested

So it's the current 19.10 kernel (5.3.0-19-generic). I'm considering
trying v5.4-rc5. I will report back once (and if) it's done.

[Bug 1848746] [NEW] Refresh rate change requests to 40Hz are "adjusted" back to 60Hz

2019-10-18 Thread Olivier Robert via ubuntu-bugs
Public bug reported:

Dear Launchpad readers,

Changes to a 40Hz-based mode are adjusted back to a 60Hz display mode by
KMS, as can be seen in the logs with the drm.debug=4 option :

oct. 18 16:27:24 NovHak-P2 kernel: [drm:intel_dump_pipe_config [i915]] 
requested mode:
oct. 18 16:27:24 NovHak-P2 kernel: [drm:drm_mode_debug_printmodeline [drm]] 
Modeline 0:"" 0 92450 1920 1968 2000 2080 1080 1083 1088  0x0 0x9
oct. 18 16:27:24 NovHak-P2 kernel: [drm:intel_dump_pipe_config [i915]] adjusted 
mode:
oct. 18 16:27:24 NovHak-P2 kernel: [drm:drm_mode_debug_printmodeline [drm]] 
Modeline 0:"1920x1080" 60 140490 1920 1972 2007 2094 1080 1083 1089 1118 0x48 
0x9

I managed to have 40Hz through EDID modification, swapping the two DTDs
it contains, one being 60Hz, the other 40Hz, hence placing the 40Hz DTD
first, but then it remains sticked to 40Hz and unable to switch to a
60Hz mode.

I suppose the bug is i915-related rather than Xorg-related, since the
modelines seem correctly sent for KMS.

I can provide additional information if needed.

[Bug 873929] Re: X freezes after login on iMac8.1 after upgrade to oneiric

2012-03-26 Thread Olivier Robert
If you're using Oneiric, the only thing you need to do is remove the
nvidia_173 or nvidia_173_updates driver.

The command jockey-text -l will give you what supplementary drivers are 
installed, which you can remove with e.g. :
jockey-text -d xorg:nvidia_173

Remove all activated, xorg-prefixed drivers and the system should fall back to 
nouveau. IMHO nouveau is the best you can get if you don't have a proprietary 
driver supporting your GPU. If you're a perfectionist, you can even purge the 
remnants of the nvidia drivers, get a list with :
dpkg -l 'nvidia*'

You will notice some packages have the status flags rc which means
they're removed/scheduled for removal (r), and configuration files
remain (c). Then do an apt-get purge followed by the names of those
nvidia rc packages separated by spaces... But don't remove nvidia-
common !

[Bug 873929] Re: X freezes after login on iMac8.1 after upgrade to oneiric

2012-03-24 Thread Olivier Robert
nvidia-173 is a special legacy driver, which doesn't cover your 8800M
GTS card. Hence don't expect performance... Better try nouveau instead !

I have Oneiric x86_64 too and experience similar problems with my 8800M
GTX, i.e. systematic X freeze shortly after startup. Logging in doesn't
matter here, it freezes anyway after some time waiting at the login
screen. I have the same strange /proc/driver/nvidia/params too (I don't
think the value 4294967295 is anything like normal where it appears). A
few system BIOS/vBIOS flashes didn't change anything.

If you dare breaking your distribution's packaging system, you could try
an old version of the driver (but NOT the legacy 173 one) from nVidia's
website. Eventually it used to work in the past, with older drivers, it
started freezing with last summer's drivers if I remember correctly...
but those older drivers had problems anyway, most notably with flash
players.

I have been suspecting a buggy BIOS, especially the ACPI DSDT, since I got 
ACPI-related error messages. You share at least one with me :
[Firmware Bug]: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored

Booting with acpi=off doesn't solve it though, at least for me.

Anyway, can't help thinking our problems are related. The 8800M GTS and
8800M GTX are similar, both G92M, and released the same day by nVidia...
I will come back if I ever find a solution to this !
