[Bug 1569383] Re: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode
Just to update: where I said 'turned off by default' I realized I don't actually know what I'm talking about. I never had a Optimus-laptop before, and I never worked with Bumblebee or the like. Therefore I don't know what the state is, and/or how this is supposed to work. Ideally, of course, the nvidia-card would power up and down based on graphic load or application profiles, just like in Windows, but I'm thinking that's not going to happen for a while. With the current situation where you need to switch in between login sessions, at least I'd expect that if I used prime-select or nvidia- settings to switch to IGP, it would actually turn off the nvidia card. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569383 Title: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1569383/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1569383] Re: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode
You're right, my nvidia card is not turned off. /rpco/acpi/bbswitch listed it as on. Battery usage was better than before, though. Maybe because when not actually using the GPU, it at least scales down to a lower frequency, conserving power (because an additional issue, most likely related to the nvidia drivers, is that the nvidia card always runs at max speed and never turns down. Maybe this is because I'm using a UHD display, not sure. No way to check when running in IGP-mode). Running the command rmmod nvidia_drm nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia gives me a notice that nvidia_uvm is not loaded but does unload the other modules. After that I am able to turn off the nvidia card using the command you provided. Battery usage then drops from around 32 Watts to around 19 Watts in idle, so that's a significant improvement. I can't reproduce your crashes when running lshw or lspci, though, they all run fine, even after turning off the nvidia card. Also running something like phoronix-test-suite is fine, the system remains stable. Maybe that's a difference in kernel and/or nvidia driver versions? I've tested using both linux kernel 4.6.0-040600-generic (4.6.0-040600.201605151930) and 4.4.0-23-generic (4.4.0-23.41), using nvidia-364 (364.19-0ubuntu0~gpu16.04.3). Would be very useful / good for battery performance if the nvidia card would be turned off by default. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569383 Title: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1569383/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1569383] Re: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode
Using Ubuntu 16.04, nVidia driver 364.19, Linux kernel 4.6.0. I have a P65_P67RGRERA and have been experiencing the same problems: 1. If I go in to the BIOS and set the graphics mode to "DISCRETE", then everything works. 2. If I go in to the BIOS and set the graphics mode to "MSHYBRID", then the nVidia card stays powered on. If I turn off the nVidia card, then certain commands will cause the kernel to freeze (such as lspci and lshw). How I'm turning off the nVidia card: rmmod nvidia_drm nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <

I just installed kernel 4.4.0-23.41 from xenial-proposed and it seems to include whatever alleviated this issue. My laptop isn't crashing anymore. There is the occasional glitch: sometimes when I enter my password at the login screen, the screen will actually not redraw at stay at the login screen while the contents seem to have changed. Moving my mouse cursor actually changes the cursor depending on what should be underneath. Switching to anther VT and back to X.org redraws the screen and fixes it. Also the title bar sometimes gets garbled. Moving or resizing the window fixes that. I did h experience these issues with 4.6 too, by the way. All in all, it's definitely usable this way! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569383 Title: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1569383/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1569383] Re: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode
FWIW: today I installed kernel 4.6.0-040600-generic from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-yakkety/ on my Kubuntu Xenial setup. On this kernel version the nvidia-drivers I was using, nvidia-361, didn't work anymore (it said that kernel 4.6.0 was not supported), so I upgraded to nvidia-464 from https://launchpad.net /~graphics-drivers After this I had one more glitch, that is that even though nouveau is listed in /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf as blacklist nouveau blacklist lbm-nouveau it would still be loaded, preventing the nvidia driver from working properly. By adding nouveau.blacklist=1 to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub I could prevent it from loading. Using this combination, I now have a fully working optimus setup. I can switch using nvidia-settings between nvidia and intel graphics and both run equally stable. It seems this issue was fixed in kernel 4.6.0 (possibly related to kernel bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109081). I'm fairly certain that the newer nvidia driver doesn't influence it as even without that, the intel driver would work fine on 4.6.0. I just couldn't switch to the nvidia GPU. Will kernel 4.6.x make it into Xenial at some point? It seems that it's might be required for Skylake laptops to work completely. ** Bug watch added: Linux Kernel Bug Tracker #109081 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109081 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569383 Title: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1569383/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1569383] Re: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode
Update: since it's quite hard to gather more information, I tried pinging the laptop from another machine. The moment I enter 'glxinfo' on the laptop it stops responding to the ping requests, so it seems not only the GUI freezes but the entire kernel. In addition, I have installed linux-crashdump but it doens't seem to do anything in this case, no linux-image-* is generated in /var/crash and no kexec console is opened at freeze. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569383 Title: Intel HD Graphics 530 crashes on glxinfo in MSHYBRID mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1569383/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
