2015-02-17 Thread Erick Brunzell
No surprise but since the 14.04.2 20150217 images still have 3.16.0-30
generic they are affected.

Since it's a hardware specific corner issue I don't know if it's worth
mentioning in the release notes or not.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1412602] Re: No live DE in Vivid using nouveau w/GeForce 7025/nForce 630a

2015-02-16 Thread Erick Brunzell
** Description changed:

  I've been testing the Ubuntu GNOME Vivid daily images in anticipation of
  Alpha 2 and I noticed that with this specific hardware I get no graphics
  at all other than a blank screen (see attached photo):
  
  AMD Sempron Processor LE-1250 @ 2.2 GHz
  nVidia C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a] (rev a2)
  nVidia MCP61 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
  nVidia MCP61 Ethernet (rev a2)
  2GB DDR2 RAM
  
  In fact I never even get as far as the screen offering to Try or
  Install, but I can enter the Advanced Boot Options screen and select
  either Try or Install from there, but with both options I still get the
  same blank screen.
  
  Further testing reveals the same results with Ubuntu and Ubuntu GNOME
  but I found that both the Xubuntu and Lubuntu images will boot properly
  on this box so I installed Lubuntu and then installed the ubuntu-
  desktop, ubuntu-gnome-desktop, and gnome-session-flashback meta-packages
  just to try some things.
  
  After doing so I found that the Unity, GNOME Shell, Gnome Classic, and
  Flashback w/Compiz sessions produce broken graphics just as the Ubuntu
  GNOME and Ubuntu live images do. So basically Compiz and Mutter both
  fail to display any usable UI. OTOH both the Lubuntu and Flashback
  w/Metacity sessions work just fine.
  
  I next opened the Additional drivers UI and chose nvidia-304.125
  (current) and all DE's perform quite well with the proprietary drivers
  so I deduced that nouveau might be the culprit.
  
  The last known working Ubuntu and Ubuntu GNOME live images are 14.04.1.
  I hadn't tried Utopic on this box yet but it's also a fail. I'll try the
  proposed 14.04.2 images ASAP (probably after Vivid Alpha 2 is released).
  
  But I see no point in trying to fix this for Utopic (or even 14.04.2 if
  it's effected) because of the 9 month life-cycle for Utopic and the
  continued availability of the 14.04.1 images. In fact I'd be cool with
  this not being fixed until 16.04 as long as it's documented so people
  know what versions will and will not work.
  
  I'm probably forgetting something but that's all I can think of ATM.
  Sorry in advance if I did this totally wrong.
  
+ ##Additional workaround and debug info:
+ 
+ The focus of this bug report is limited to screen corruption and
+ X-freezes that either prevent the installation of Ubuntu (or other
+ flavors) and/or booting the installed system even long enough to enable
+ the third party nvidia driver. There are almost certainly other
+ instances of screen corruption and hard (or soft) lockups that may also
+ be related to the nouveau driver but those are beyond the scope of this
+ specific bug report.
+ 
+ To workaround this bug, or to see if you're affected by it you can boot
+ using this boot parameter:
+ 
+ nouveau.config=NvMSI=0
+ 
+ You'll find general instructions for using custom boot parameters at
+ these links:
+ 
+ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
+ 
+ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters
+ 
+ In addition to what's said at the latter link about temporarily adding a
+ kernel boot parameter to an installed system; after using the arrow keys
+ to navigate to the line beginning with linux /boot you'll notice that
+ line ends with quiet splash $vt_handoff. The boot parameter belongs
+ between the quiet splash and $vt_handoff like this:
+ 
+ quiet splash nouveau.config=NvMSI=0 $vt_handoff

2015-02-15 Thread Erick Brunzell
OK I did some more testing last night and this AM, so here's a quick
recap to reduce any confusion (both for others and myself):

Vivid: This is fixed in 3.18.0-13 generic. I verified that this AM by
testing the Ubuntu GNOME Vivid 20150215 amd64 iso.

Utopic: This is fixed in 3.16.0-31 generic which is in utopic-proposed.
No additional problems were encountered.

Trusty with the Utopic HWE: This is fixed in 3.16.0-31 generic which is
in trusty-proposed. The bug I mentioned in comment #19 was observed and
I think it may be bug #1291574. I'll follow up on that separate issue
appropriately ASAP.

Trusty with the OEM 3.13 series kernel: This remains under
investigation. I know that both the 14.04 and 14.04.1 images are
affected as well as 3.13.0-45-generic. I'll also follow up on this ASAP.

Regarding Trusty with the OEM 3.13 series kernel: This is NOT fixed in
3.13.0-46-generic from trusty-proposed. That can be verified because
using the nouveau.config=NvMSI=0 boot parameter gets me past the screen
corruption/X freeze. So evidently the upstream fix has not yet trickled
down to the 3.13 series kernel.

2015-02-14 Thread Erick Brunzell
Sorry to take so long getting back to this. The affected PC is usually
used as my media center but I've now been able to move it into my
testing suite so hopefully once 14.04.2 milestone testing is out of the
way I'll be able to respond more quickly and efficiently.

Regarding the screen corruption in Utopic I've now found that it does
eventually occur even running GNOME Classic but just much less
frequently than in a GNOME Shell session. This includes both the stock
Utopic kernel as well as the 3.16.7-031607-generic kernel Joseph
Salisbury requested I try.

So, moving on to Vivid for the moment - last night I installed Ubuntu
GNOME Vivid Alpha 2 and this AM I booted it using the
nouveau.config=NvMSI=0 boot parameter, then applied all available
updates, and it seems to be running GNOME Shell just fine with the
latest Vivid kernel using the nouveau driver:

lance@lance-AMD-desktop:~$ uname -r
3.18.0-13-generic

lance@lance-AMD-desktop:~$ sudo lshw -c video
[sudo] password for lance: 
  *-display   
   description: VGA compatible controller
   product: C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a]
   vendor: NVIDIA Corporation
   physical id: d
   bus info: pci@:00:0d.0
   version: a2
   width: 64 bits
   clock: 66MHz
   capabilities: pm msi vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom
   configuration: driver=nouveau latency=0
   resources: irq:21 memory:fb00-fbff memory:e000-efff 
memory:fc00-fcff memory:8000-8001

So some recent kernel update in Vivid appears to have fixed this issue.
Is there still any point in trying the 3.18.5-031805-generic mainline
kernel?

For the next 5 or 6 days I'll be shifting my focus almost totally onto
14.04.2, in fact my next two tests on this hardware will be 14.04.1 with
the latest Trusty kernel and then 14.04.2 with the Utopic HWE.

2015-02-14 Thread Erick Brunzell
I was encountering some issues installing 14.04.1 which I'll get into
later, but for now I moved on to testing 14.04.2, this one installed w
/Ubuntu-GNOME 14.04.2 LTS Trusty Tahr - Release amd64 (20150203), and
while 3.16.0-30-generic was affected I pulled 3.16.0-31-generic from
trusty-proposed and it appeared to be OK for a while, at least I was not
getting the same screen corruption.

In fact I began a forum post from that Trusty install but before I was
done the screen became unresponsive, but not entirely frozen because I
could move the mouse pointer, then after a minute or two the screen
displayed the error in the attached pic.

@ Tim Lunn,

This is totally unrelated, but to be certain that Vivid is working
properly w/3.18.0-13-generic I've been using it to post all of these
messages and on the last boot apport presented me with a gdm error so I
accepted the automated reporting which is bug #1421991. Poorly written
for sure, but I really had no idea what was going on.

2015-02-14 Thread Erick Brunzell
It turns out that both 14.04 and 14.04.1 are affected by this bug. I had
to look in the installer log to see what version I'd begun with (and
have been running on that box as my stable OS) = Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Trusty Tahr - Alpha i386 (20140129). So I was undoubtedly able to
install Trusty at that point but hadn't noticed a problem because I was
already using the third-party nvidia driver after that date.

Lance, this is getting a little confusing to follow, can you file separate bugs 
for the corruption and lockups above.
The original nouveau.config=NvMSI=0 bug should be fixed in vivid now? is it 
fixed in trusty 14.04.2?

2015-02-14 Thread Erick Brunzell
Hi Tim,

As far as I can tell ATM the only difference in most of these
crashes/freezes/screen-corruptions is the frequency with which they
occur and the screen color depending on what point during boot and/or
operation the freeze occurs.

Like this is the pic I included with original bug report:

https://launchpadlibrarian.net/195348138/IMG_4796.JPG

And this is a pic from Ubuntu GNOME Utopic with the amd64 version of
3.16.7-031607-generic (mainline kernel):

https://launchpadlibrarian.net/196872607/IMG_4817.JPG

The frequency of crashes/freezes (or the point at which they occur) is
sometimes random with the exact same images. Sometimes it may prevent me
from even getting to the live desktop or booting to the desktop of an
installed OS. Other times it may not happen until I'm performing some
random task on the desktop. Or it may occur at any random point during
installation.

It seems to affect Unity, GNOME Shell, and Flashback w/Compiz somewhat
more frequently that GNOME Classic and I've not been able to reproduce
this bug with the same versions of Lubuntu so I assume it's a load or
demand related issue???

The one exception is 14.04.2 with 3.16.0-31-generic from trusty-proposed
which may (or may not) fix this issue but results in an unrelated crash
(see comment #19) so I'll check the changelogs and see if there is a
tracking bug # to refer to. I'll then file a new bug report ASAP.

But yes, this does appear to be fixed in Vivid w/3.18.0-13-generic. I
will be glad to try the 3.18.5-031805-generic mainline kernel in Vivid
also if desired.

I should also probably test Utopic again and see if I can find the
equivalent of trusty-proposed 3.16.0-31-generic since it really is part
of the 14.04.2 LTS HWE for Trusty.

2015-02-06 Thread Erick Brunzell
I have been able to reproduce that a few times in a gnome-shell session
but it's not specific to any one task. It crashed/froze twice just
looking for logs and once again while launching Firefox. OTOH I can use
the classic session w/o a problem - in fact I'm streaming the nightly
news right now.

I know that X actually freezes when the screen tears because I'd set
Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to kill X and tested it in both sessions. When the
screen tears as shown in the attached pic the keyboard is just totally
unresponsive causing me to do a hard reset.

There are no .xsession-errors in Home and I don't see anything unusual
in /var/log/Xorg.0.log but there is also an /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old that
I can't read.

FYI sometime tomorrow I'll add some storage to that box so I can retain
4 or 5 installs at the same time. That way I can dig for logs and/or do
some retesting without having to reinstall and update each time.

That looks like video corruption, and it is possible that gnome-classic
has some of the animations disabled compared to gnome-shell, but I can't
think of any other difference.

.xsession-errors is obsolete, logs will by default be in
~/.cache/upstart/gnome-session-GNOME.log under upstart boot or
`journalctl -b /usr/bin/gnome-session` under systemd init.

But either way it seems likely that is a bug in Nouveau, so those logs
might not be too useful either.

2015-02-06 Thread Erick Brunzell
@ Joseph Salisbury,

There seemed to be some improvement in Ubuntu GNOME Utopic with the
amd64 version of 3.16.7-031607-generic, at least I was able to boot that
kernel w/o adding the nouveau.config=NvMSI=0 boot parameter, but then
after spending a couple of minutes fiddling around when I attempted to
open the System Settings UI the screen tore and X froze. So nouveau is
still a failure with that specific GPU.

I doubt it's arch specific so I'll move on to testing the Vivid mainline
kernel next.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1412602] Re: No live DE in Vivid using nouveau w/GeForce 7025/nForce 630a

2015-02-06 Thread Erick Brunzell
Perhaps oddly (perhaps not oddly at all) I decided to reboot and select
GNOME Classic rather than booting into the standard GNOME Shell and it
seems to work fine - no screen tearing or X-freezes under fairly heavy
use. So maybe nouveau itself is simply not capable of running GNOME
Shell.

I find that a bit odd as I'd assumed both use mutter but Tim could
probably provide some insight in that regard. I should probably try that
same kernel with Ubuntu in a Unity session to see what happens.

ATM I'm inclined to think that kernel fixes this specific issue, but
that other underlying issues exist in nouveau itself which may actually
be an Xorg issue beyond the scope of this bug  or is
it???

Lance, gnome-classic is gnome-shell with a bunch of extensions, so for
classic to work and Shell not does seem odd. Was the issue in gnome-
shell repeatable or a one of crash?

I'll be glad to do that but it'll be a couple of days due to prior
commitments.

2015-01-26 Thread Erick Brunzell
The latest two daily builds are failing for what must be a totally
unrelated issue because they're also failing with different hardware so
I went back to testing the Ubuntu GNOME Alpha 2 live image and it does
boot successfully with the boot parameter nouveau.config=NvMSI=0. So do
we need to edit the bug tags? I'm thinking we may want to add linux but
I'm not sure.

2015-01-26 Thread Erick Brunzell
I tried the 3.19.0-031900rc5-generic mainline kernel on that
installation and both mutter and compiz based DE's work OK with nouveau,
but the nvidia module fails to build properly against that kernel. I
haven't yet researched what kernel we intend to ship with Vivid.

I started some testing with Ubuntu GNOME 20150125 but it's been bumped
to 20150126 now so I'll wait until I've repeated those tests with the
latest build before commenting further.

Here's what Ubuntu GNOME Vivid 20150119 i386 boots to when it should
display Try or Install. I was able to enter the advanced boot menu and
run check disc for defects so I know it's not just a bad burn.
