To those still commenting on this bug, please note that it's marked 'Fix Released'. No one is tracking this bug report any longer, so any comments you make here will not be read. Please follow Martin Pitt's directions in comment #114 and file a new bug. One of the problems with this bug report is that its title describes a generic symptom, that can result from a wide array of different completely unrelated bugs. So everyone thinks they have this same bug when really they just have a similar symptom. This is why we always ask people to file bugs separately, and not me too onto another bug, since you may not have the same bug, and when it gets fixed your issue will not get investigated. -- Intrepid Compiz hangs on login for i830MG, i845, and i945GM video cards https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259385 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to yelp in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

It sounds like you may be experiencing a different issue. On Ubuntu 8.10, at least, the intel driver works fine for all chipsets EXCEPT the three mentioned above. On those three, once compiz is disabled, the intel driver works fine again.

First of all, thanks for the great work everyone, for getting this issue to a workable state. It really is a beautiful thing in the open source world when bug reporting and developer insight work together to bring about betterment for all. This weekend, I tried to install 8.10 on my brother-in-law's computer, and we ran into this issue. This page helped me through the problem, and so I'm very grateful. My question is, I'd like to keep an eye on the i845/compiz issue, so when things are sorted out, and Visual Effects are working again, we can reinstall compiz on his system and enjoy the eye-candy. Is this where I should be watching for updates on the issue, or is there another bug report I should be following?

So in regards to the question as to where the bug originates: I just installed Arch to the affected system, and when installing, could only get X running with i810 driver. xf86-video-intel wouldn't do it. Didn't install compiz or any 3D effects at all. My interpretation is that this implies that somehow it is a bug in the changes to X and the driver, though it makes mysterious the reason why disabling compiz is a successful workaround.

I find it a tad annoying that although this bug is widely confirmed the importance is still marked as undecided and it has not been assigned to anyone to repair. I am referring to the bug in the intel drivers, which is still marked as confirmed but not fixed. A workaround was been implemented in compiz, and then this was forgotten.

Compiz Intel setup work fine on Hardy. Compiz changed. No longer works on many pc's as indicated in the Bug. It's Compiz's fault, since Compiz changed, and it's Compiz's responsibility to fix it. Example use a codepath that works.

[Bug 259385] Re: Intrepid Compiz hangs on login for i830MG, i845, and i945GM video cards
jerrylamos, why do you keep insisting that this is a compiz issue when all evidence points to the intel driver. It is silly to start dropping words like codepath that you don't understand to argue your point. It is not that compiz uses codepaths that don't work, it is that compiz uses driver paths that are not working properly. The driver paths are the problem. It is the responsibility of the driver to make the paths to the hardware properly available. The fact that these paths are not working is a problem in the driver not compiz. There are other software applications that use these paths, although not very many at this point. For example the Avant Window Navigator developers are undergoing a rewrite to see if they can start using them. These paths make it possible to achieve accelerated graphics without the overhead of cpu use by accessing the video cards hardware directly. Now enough with the talk about compiz being at fault. -- Intrepid Compiz hangs on login for i830MG, i845, and i945GM video cards https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259385 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to yelp in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 259385] Re: Intrepid Compiz hangs on login for i830MG, i845, and i945GM video cards
I'm the originator of this bug - 1. I'm not a developer, it appears to be a tough bug compiz using a code path not likely used by any other code plus significant changes in X. As a user I spent countless hours trying to find out how to get running - always keeping a usable install in dual boot, and even doing things like installing xfce on Ubuntu and wondering why it worked - doesn't use compiz, of course!. The other users of the Ubuntu forums finally tipped me onto a relatively simple workaround. Thank you Ubuntu for a great forum setup! 2. Compiz is about nice visual effects using fancy graphics which may be pretty to some but do in fact insert main line code. I've a main frame performance background so I do like to minimize extra code which does not add function. Intrepid with compiz removed makes this 1 gHz Celeron laptop nicely usable, even You Tube BBC videos. If you have lots of gHz and fancy video hardware a bit more overhead wouldn't be seen. I imagine that's what the developers use. 3. What with developing code and fixing other bugs this one fell under the radar and wasn't dealt with in the release code. On one hand Ubuntu wants to widen the base on the other they didn't realize how many in the base are running Intel graphics hardware. (Intel - have you heard of that company?) Ubuntu puts out Alpha's and Beta's to get early exposure there were such a potful of bugs to deal with they didn't focus on this one. 3, I'm using early early Jaunty here with compiz removed. It's running O.K. - which means they haven't tweaked Jaunty enough, here comes Alpha 1 soon, hang onto your hat.

@manzur: What we see in your screenshot is precisely what SHOULD happen, since the fix (or fix) just prevents using the visual effects. Disabling Compiz visual effects enables you to use the desktop without Compiz, that's all. This has already been explained above. Quoting Martin Pitt: I hope that we'll get an actual fixed driver into intrepid-updates soon. Until then you need to live without desktop effects, or go back to 8.04 LTS. So I think we shall have to be patient and try to live without the eye candy for a while if we want to stick with Intrepid. That is, until the actual driver bug gets fixed.
