[Bug 512387] Re: [gm45] System Hangs on Connecting External Monitor
Ok, this issue has come back with the latest kernel in lucid. I was able to notice the difference because I did try displaying immediately after upgrading kernel to 2.6.32-30. Since I had the previous kernel installed as well, I booted back to 2.6.32-29 and don't see the problem. With the new kernel, the same symptoms are back (i.e. laptop completely hangs as soon as you connect the external display, irrespective of whether the display is on or off). I don't know what are all the changes with the new kernel, but this seems to have gone back.. I also checked if the previous work around (booting with additional kernel parameter acpi_osi =!Windows 2006) works but unfortunately that didnt work with 2.6.32-30 kernel. I think this needs to be addressed soon since lucid is a LTS release (I plan to use lucid since I use this laptop extensively everyday). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512387 Title: [gm45] System Hangs on Connecting External Monitor -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have to add that this bug seems fixed for me. I am running lucid with the latest kernel updates. The fix happened sometime in the last few weeks.

Hi balak, If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

[Bug 512387] Re: [gm45] System Hangs on Connecting External Monitor
Thanks for reconfirming it's still an issue for you for lucid. It sounds like this is an issue with the kernel drm code, which is not handing the video output correctly. Since 319717 has been closed, I'm assuming your issue is somewhat different from that one so rather than reopening it, we'll move *this* bug to the kernel team to look into. One thing you could try as a possible workaround is to turn off KMS (i915.modeset=0 in grub). ** Package changed: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) = linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = High ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New ** Tags added: lucid xorg-needs-kernel-fix -- [gm45] System Hangs on Connecting External Monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512387 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 512387] Re: [GM45] System Hangs on Connecting External Monitor
** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel My laptop hangs when I just connect an external monitor to it. This is even before I configure any type of mirror screen or extended desktop. The instant VGA connector touches the port, the system is lost. The only way out is by hard reboot. I have tried 'Ctl-Alt-Backspace' (after enabling it), ssh-ing into the laptop but nothing works. This did not happen in jaunty. I use my laptop to display presentations regularly so this is a very big loss of usage at work. This is a very bad regression. People can inadvertently loose all unsaved data just in the course of trying to display externally. Enabling/Disabling Compiz does not seem to make any difference. I looked at Bug:438000 which seems to be compiz related and happens AFTER somebody tries to configure the screen for external monitor. Please let me know what other debug information may be needed for this.

[Bug 512387] Re: [GM45] System Hangs on Connecting External Monitor
Thanks Geir for the pointers to the other bugs. The freeze happens instantly. I tried the following: started in recovery mode without X and the freeze/hang happened even then. So it seemed like a kernel issue and more like bug 319717. I looked over the other bug and found a possible work-around - adding 'acpi_osi=!Windows 2006 to the kernel boot parameters. This seems to have done the trick - after booting into the kernel with this parameter, I don't see the freeze/hang issue anymore. However 319717 reports that the issue was fixed in v2.6.31-rc1 which is the ubuntu 2.6.31-1.13 kernel. I am currently running 2.6.31-17. I have attached dmesg and kernel logs while booting with acpi_osi parameter. ** Attachment added: dmesg with acpi_osi set to '!Windows 2006' http://launchpadlibrarian.net/38426503/dmesg.txt.acpi_osi -- [GM45] System Hangs on Connecting External Monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512387 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
