[Bug 282081] Re: [i965] X hangs and not recoverable after screen saving or logout/login with intel 965gm
This just hit me again, but this time I was able to recover. Logging in remotely I found nothing obviously wrong. System was almost entirely idle. So I went back to the system keyboard and tried again. Initially I could not get Ctrl-Alt-F# to give me a tty, but eventually I got one after trying several times. Looking around there I still saw nothing abnormal. Finally I hit Ctrl-Alt-F2 and was back at the screen saver password entry dialog. I entered the password and everything worked fine. I'm not convinced this is the same bug that is being discussed above because I don't see X (or any other processes) chewing up CPU. However, the overall failure mode - sporadic inability to exit the screen saver properly - sure seems related. If there are things I can provide to help debug this please let me know. -- [i965] X hangs and not recoverable after screen saving or logout/login with intel 965gm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282081 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sorry. Forgot to mention one thing. The old system that showed this bug was running 32 bit 8.10. The new system is running 64 bit 8.10 (amd64 architecture). Given the above discussion it probably doesn't matter, but I should have said it in my original comments. -- [i965] X hangs and not recoverable after screen saving or logout/login with intel 965gm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282081 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 282081] Re: [i965] X hangs and not recoverable after screen saving or logout/login with intel 965gm
I, too, am seeing what may or may not be this problem. I've seen it on two different systems running 8.10. The first was an ancient p3-800MHz that is now retired. The current is a Dell Optiplex 330. I'll attach output pf lspci --vvnn for those who know more than me about these things. In my case, I see two related failures: The screen saver need not have been running for hours. Sometimes just a few minutes will do the trick, but it can be hours. I've seen it with a blank screen and with other screen savers selected. The initial thing is that the system hangs on trying to exit from the screen saver. Where the two failure modes differ is that on occasion (with the old system) I was able to use Ctrl-Alt-F# to switch to a tty. However, having just seen this problem on the new Dell, that was not possible. Sadly I had no access to the system from any other place at the time, so I don't know what was going on. As I could get nothing to work, I forced a hard reboot. I've setup now with a second system that I can ssh in with to see what I can learn when I next see it. This is a significant problem. I hope someone can resolve it. ** Attachment added: "output of lspci -vvnn" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20956283/lspci.out -- [i965] X hangs and not recoverable after screen saving or logout/login with intel 965gm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282081 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Tom: No, I'm fairly certain you're experiencing a different issue. I only experienced it when coming out of sleep mode, not just after several hours of use. The mouse moves, but nothing else works.

[Bug 282081] Re: [i965] X hangs and not recoverable after screen saving or logout/login with intel 965gm
I think this is a regression from Hardy, provided it's the same bug that I am experiencing: I have an intel 82G33/G31 on a lenovo desktop. X hangs after several hours (unable to even move mouse pointer, change VT or do ctrl-alt-bksp etc). It's not related to the screensaver, but haven't tried without compiz yet. When X has hung, there is no process that's using 100% cpu and a kill -9 of X itself is the only thing that will unlock things. -- [i965] X hangs and not recoverable after screen saving or logout/login with intel 965gm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282081 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for testing; this should go upstream.

Hi Bryce, I tried the new driver on Intrepid (option 1 in your proposals) and I am still seeing the problem. It seems this bug can be sent upstream. thanks for your help! fred On Sat, 2008-12-20 at 02:26 +, Bryce Harrington wrote: > [This is an automatic notice.] > > We'd like to forward your bug upstream, however upstream requires > that you first test it against their newer driver code. > > To save you the effort of building the driver from source, we've built > packages for the driver and its new dependencies. > > So you have a couple options: > > 1.

[This is an automatic notice.] We'd like to forward your bug upstream, however upstream requires that you first test it against their newer driver code. To save you the effort of building the driver from source, we've built packages for the driver and its new dependencies. So you have a couple options: 1. Download and test .debs for intrepid, from: https://edge.launchpad.net/~intel-gfx-testing/+archive -or- 2. Download and test the Jaunty alpha-2 (or newer) Live CD, (which includes a beta of the new xserver 1.6 as well). See http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/9.04/ for ISOs Thanks ahead of time! You can simply reply to this email to report your findings. P.S., if you wish to forward your bug upstream yourself, please follow these directions to do so: http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- [i965] X hangs and not recoverable after screen saving or logout/login with intel 965gm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282081 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
