[Bug 421048] Re: Black dots appear on screen

2013-07-15 Thread Evan Bullock-Morales
I am having the same issue on 13.04 running on a Sony VAIO S Series core
i7, Intel HD 4000 Graphics.

Periodically I get a screen full of small square dots scattered over the entire 
screen.  They appear randomly, for about a
second, then are gone.  Its not hardware; I dual boot windows 8, and I have no 
similar issue there.

I had exactly the same problem constantly since several years with
different Ubuntu versions and different nvidia drivers.

After adding agp=off to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in the grub
config the strange black dots problem is completely gone! :-)

...maybe this helps someone too.

[Bug 421048] Re: Black dots appear on screen

2011-04-29 Thread Joseph Coffland
Thank you for the concerned response.  I have a good idea of what it's
like to be on your end because I am on other projects.  I don't mean to
be a whiner.

I had a number of bugs related to an Nvidia card and multiple displays
stemming back to Hardy.  Most of the reports I filed or was involved
with were eventually closed with out really being resolved as Ubuntu
versions progressed.  I guess in this case the main issue was probably a
faulty Nvidia card/driver pair.  The issues went away when I abandoned a
particular machine with on board Nvidia.  I should probably be yelling
at Nivida for not owning up to and fixing the problems.  I have an
expensive laptop now paperweight due to these problems.  I guess it's a
bit of a sore spot for me.

Keep up the great work.  Ubuntu is getting better and more reliable all
the time.

[Bug 421048] Re: Black dots appear on screen

2011-04-28 Thread Joseph Coffland
It is discouraging that the policy for many bugs is to simply wait until
a newer version comes along so they can be downgraded and then closed
with out any real investigation.  I understand that developer resources
are limited but shouldn't the bug remain 'Confirmed' until proven
otherwise?  This bug has been downgraded to 'Incomplete' with no
evidence that the bug has been fixed other than a lack of recent
reports.

I think the process should be to first ask if the bug still occurs.
Then if there are no updates for some time or people can confirm that
the bug no longer exists in the newer version then the status can be
changed.  Otherwise, it puts too much burden on the bug reporters to
fight for a bug's status only to be repeatedly smacked down.
Particularly the original reporter should have a chance to comment
before the status is changed.

--- End rant ---

I haven't seen this bug in awhile because I stopped using the machine it
occurred on.  I believe it is related to faulty Nvidia hardware and/or
drivers.

[Bug 421048] Re: Black dots appear on screen

2011-04-28 Thread Bryce Harrington
I understand that developer resources are limited but shouldn't the bug
remain 'Confirmed' until proven otherwise?

Indeed, that is exactly what happened, the bug remained in confirmed
state for a year and a half.

You have to understand that there are 400 bug reports against Ubuntu's X
components, with around 200 bugs filed each month.  It is very
challenging to stay atop the new bugs, let alone the old ones.
Fortunately, for natty we did in fact manage to stay more or less atop
the bug flood this go around.  You can see this from this graph:

http://www.bryceharrington.org/Arsenal/Reports/ubuntu-x-swat/totals.svg

Truly investigating bugs takes a considerable amount of time.  Deep
analysis of a bug can take days of time, and you can see from the
numbers (and like you mention in your post) we get way more requests
from people to analyze their problems than we have manpower to do.  So
we focus effort on where we can provide the best bang for the buck.
That usually translates to bugs that are confirmed as still issues with
the current version (i.e. oneiric), that either we can reproduce
ourselves or that have an active reporter who can do testing for us (and
is willing to fight for the correct status for a bug), that are severe
issues affecting a lot of people, and that we are likely going to be
able to fix.  (This latter point is why -nvidia and -fglrx bugs like
this one tend to get less priority - because they're proprietary
codebases, we fundamentally simply cannot legally or technically fix
many problems, because the car's hood is welded closed to us.)

I think the process should be to first ask if the bug still occurs.
Then if there are no updates for some time or people can confirm that
the bug no longer exists in the newer version then the status can be
changed.

Well, basically what you describe is the process we're following here.
Maybe it feels like a smackdown to have it marked 'Incomplete', but
launchpad has special tracking features relating to Incomplete status,
which is why I use it - this state (and only this state) has a flag to
show when someone has replied to a bug after we've asked a question.
Sorry you feel it to be a smackdown, however as you can see, the
process worked here - your rant got flagged as an answer and here I
am.  :-)  Unfortunately Launchpad doesn't differentiate between answers
from the original reporter vs. any random commenter (I _really_ wish it
did...) but this process works.

Anyway, this is probably all TMI, but one rant deserves another I guess.
;-)  I don't want you thinking we all just sit around on our thumbs all
release and then spam everyone to retest, although I'm sure you must
think that!

[Bug 421048] Re: Black dots appear on screen

2011-04-28 Thread Bryce Harrington
Regarding the bug itself...  This does sound like either a driver
problem or a problem with the hardware itself.  If the latter, then the
issue would show up in windows as well, which no one has mentioned so
maybe we can assume it isn't.

From the spacing and pattern of the dots it looks like graphics memory
writing failure.  Like, the driver wasn't able to keep up with the data
stream and skipped writing a pixel.  This type of problem often will
just go away after updating to a better performing software stack
(either kernel or -nvidia or both).  Thus, in this case having it re-
tested against natty really is necessary as a first step.

If it does occur with the nvidia in natty, then this bug should be moved
from 'nvidia-graphics-drivers-180' to 'nvidia-graphics-drivers' and
tagged 'nvidia'.  If you run apport-collect 421048 on natty I think
that should do the trick, but am not sure.  From there, Canonical can
flag the issue for NVIDIA to investigate.

This bug report was filed against an old version of Ubuntu.
Can you confirm whether this is still an issue in natty?

If you don't mind, it would be very helpful if you could update the bug
report in launchpad to 'Fix Released' if it is no longer an issue for
you, or if it is still occurring under natty, please tag the bug 'natty'
so it's easier for us to track.

[Bug 421048] Re: Black dots appear on screen

2009-10-09 Thread Bryce Harrington
** Description changed:

  On logging in to Ubuntu, sometimes there are randomly placed black dots
  on the screen. I have seen this problem on an old Hardy install on a PPC
  and on my current Intrepid install running on an Intel Q9550. Another
  machine with Intrepid on an Athlon has never exhibited this problem. All
  were 64-bit installs.
  
  The dots are black pixels and not window or virtual desktop dependent
  (they remain in the same place regardless of what the OS draws on
  screen). Occasionally some may appear or disappear and sometimes they
  all go away and return at random times.
  
  I have discovered that simply logging out of the session and logging
  back in to X clears this problem (I have had many weeks of uptime after
  this, so am certain that it is a permanent fix).
  
  The dots do not affect any function of the OS, and can be fixed (for me)
  by restarting X (as above), but they are an unnecessary ugliness for
  those users that are affected.
  
  My guess is that the issue is with the X server - but I am not sure how
  to verify this.
  
  There is a thread (784045) about this on the Ubuntu forums (http
  ://ubuntu-ky.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=784045)

This bug also showed up recently on my Intrepid desktop install with
nvidia-glx-180.

I would also like to note that if I mouse click on the dots they blink.
This may be due to a screen redraw at the X layer.  Moving a window over
the dots will also make them blink.  It seems that X firsts draws the
correct content then a moment later the dots reappear, thereby causing
the blinking.

The attached files were generated after restarting (dots are present - as 
always). Attached screenshot shows how the dots are larger than a single pixel 
and are not restricted to desktop/panel/window. 
They are also present on the login screen in the same pattern.

I hope all this info helps...
