[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1634802] Re: Could not insert module

[Scott Cowles Jacobs]

A week or two ago, Software Updater started offering me version
304.134-0ubuntu0.16.10.1

It had never offered me the "fixed" version 304.132-0ubuntu2, but only
the original version 304.132-0ubuntu1, which did not load into the
kernel (with the mtrr_add and mtrr_del errors).

I tried the 304.134-0ubuntu0.16.10.1 version offered, and it fails just
like 304.132-0ubuntu1.

Somehow, the fix never made it into my distribution repositories, and
was not incorporated into the new 304.134-0ubuntu0.16.10.1 version.

I still am forced to use an older version ( 304.131-0ubuntu5 ) in order
to have an nvidia driver that both loads into the kernel, and allows
Hugin to run correctly...

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1634802] Re: Could not insert module

[Scott Cowles Jacobs]

Well, I ended up with the nvidia-304  304.131-0ubuntu5 version, which
loads into the kernel just fine, and also allows Hugin to function...

I am curious - since the fixed 304.132-0ubuntu2 version loads into the kernel, 
why has it not yet made it into Yakkety?  
Since I cannot use it (see comment #22), it doesn't make much difference to me, 
but it probably would help other people. I see it is not yet available, because 
every day, I have to dismiss the Software Updater, which is constantly offering 
me the 304.132-0ubuntu1 version, with which it wants to replace my 
304.131-0ubuntu5...

At https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-

Apparently, there was a nvidia-304-304.134 release in the past week.  I
still had to uncomment the "#PATCH[1]="buildfix_kernel_4.3.patch" line
in dkms.conf and run 'dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-304' to get rid of the
mtrr-add and mtrr-del references so it would load, but the speed problem
that others have noted appears to have been dealt with.   At least
watching Netflix on this particular machine is back to where it was on
16.04.

Installed the 301.132-ubuntu2 release from Zesty on Mom's computer.

That does indeed allow the module to load, but puts you right back at
the GLX error.

Removed the nvidia-304 package and thankfully, nouveau seems to have
improved somewhat and now works for her.

Have enclosed error log, although it should probably go in another bug.

I also have this problem (on the computer of my dear old mother, 250
miles away, so remote support through SSH.) so I'll be happy to lend
a hand if I can...

Upgraded her to 16.10 remotely via the command line because her 16.04
install developed the infinite login loop with a GLX error on starting X
as mentioned in #20

Now getting the mtrr_add problem instead.


She had no complaints with  304.131-0ubuntu3  (Xenial release version), so 
whatever it is arrived in the 304.132 release, I think.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1634802] Re: Could not insert module

[Scott Cowles Jacobs]

I installed the fix from zesty, and it loads into the kernal fine, and I
can set the resolution that I want.

However...

Since before now I could not get nvidia-304 to work, I had been using nouveau.
I had been able to start the panorama program Hugin, but when I tried to open 
the images to stitch together, the graphics driver nouveau crashed and I had to 
do a hard-shutdown.

Now that I have a working nvidia-304, Hugin crashes with some sort of a
x-window error when it tries to start up.

"
The program 'hugin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 541 error_code 2 request_code 154 minor_code 24)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
"

I don't know if it is the mere presence of nvidia-304, or THIS PARTICULAR
nvidia-304.  I don't know if it is the FIX that caused it, or something else.
I can see that the version of nvidia-304 that I had been using under Lubuntu
16.04 (and which I used with Hugin with no problem) was 304.131xxx instead of
.132.

>From this output, can anyone say if it is a bug in nvidia-304, or Hugin that 
>is 
the problem?

Say...

I see that there is a .131 for Xenial Xerus. at the same site I got the fixed 
.132 ...
Does anyone think there is likely to be a problem if I try to load that version 
of nvidia-304?
I am inclined to try it...

[kary]

Also I tested nvidia-304, version 304.132-0ubuntu2. I did it from zesty
archive.

It seems to me, that THIS bug is fixed. The module got loaded into
kernel, there are no longer unsatisfied global references.

But like others have have commented, something else seems to be wrong.
In my case (I am running kubuntu) I get a black screen after boot. The
greeter login window does not appear.

Right now I don't have time to debug THAT problem. I hope to be able to
do that later this week and probably file another bug. (My current guess
is, that it may have something to do with the lack of another patch,
that has been dropped between 304.131-0ubuntu5 and 304.132-0ubuntu1...)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1634802] Re: Could not insert module

[Konrad]

I've found a hack that will enable nvidia module to insert into kernel:

Uncomment this line:
#PATCH[1]="buildfix_kernel_4.3.patch"

in file /usr/src/nvidia-304-304.132/dkms.conf
then sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-304

In Ubuntu 16.04 it was uncommented, because there were some mtrr changes
in 4.3.0 kernel. This patch works for 4.8.0 kernel also.

Module works, but something is wrong with acceleration, because Unity is
not working. This should throw some light on it:

$ glxgears
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for 
operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  155 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  3 (X_GLXCreateContext)
  Value in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  30
  Current serial number in output stream:  31

but running as sudo works

$ sudo glxgears
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh.  The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
303 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.420 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.928 FPS

I'm currently using gnome-session-flashback with metacity.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1634802] Re: Could not insert module

[kary]

I did a little bit of more triaging:

Staying on my
Linux acer07 4.8.0-21-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 4 18:27:25 UTC 2016 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
and only upgrading from "nvidia-304 304.131-0ubuntu5" to "nvidia-304 
304.132-0ubuntu1"
brings up this problem.

On the other hand, staying on "nvidia-304 304.131-0ubuntu5" and doing a
complete "apt-get dist-upgrade" otherwise, results in a completely
functioning system.

So looks like this problem is more connected with nvidia-304 versions
than kernel versions.

My workaround is (thanks to BTRFS allowing me to boot into various
snapshots and having the earlier driver version available):

$ cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/nvidia-304_mtrr-prob.pref 
Package: nvidia-304
Pin: version 304.132-0ubuntu1
Pin-Priority: -1

[Ricardo Almeida]

Just to add to my experience, adding #undef CONFIG_MTRR doesn't seem to
be enough :( Besides the issues with cinnamon, I tried kodi, and it also
crashes

21:12:29 T:139627963873664   ERROR: GLX Error: Could not create context

and even glxgears fails to start

  Major opcode of failed request:  155 (GLX)

To wrap up my previous couple of comments and hopefully bisect the
problem, I can state the following (thanks to BTRFS):

This problem didn't / does not exist with:

This problem exists with:

Sorry, I don't have any more intermediary points.

Thanks Mario, but for me, that doesn't help:

model: C61 [GeForce 6100 nForce 405]
vendor   : NVIDIA Corporation
driver   : nvidia-304 - distro non-free recommended
driver   : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin

nvidia-304 is the problem and I've tried Nouveau earlier with no
success.

Not a solution to the bug, but a solution to the problem... 
I have found that the driver for my graphics card (GeForce 210) has been 
updated from nvidia-304 to nvidia-340, both drivers being listed in Ubuntu 
16.10 as available for my card.
Anyone else with the problem as reported can check this by running the 
following command:

$ ubuntu-drivers devices

This will tell you which drivers are available for your installed
graphics card, I suggest picking the one marked 'recommended' for your
card.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1634802] Re: Could not insert module

[Ricardo Almeida]

I changed /usr/src/nvidia-304-304.132/nv-linux.h and added just before
the #endif in the end of the file the line:

#undef CONFIG_MTRR

then I did sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-304

rebooted and at least X now is at proper resolution, but cinnamon fails
to load. running cinnamon --replace on the terminal I get

libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Not sure if related with this bug or if it could be something else :(

  Could not insert module

Bug description:
  Ubuntu release: 16.10 Yakkety Yak
  Kernel version: 4.8.0-22-generic x86_64
  Package version: 304.132-0ubuntu1

  The nvidia module cannot be loaded. The following errors are reported:
  Could not insert module Unknown symbol in module

  and:

  nvidia: Unknown symbol mtrr_del (err 0)
  nvidia: Unknown symbol mtrr_add (err 0)

  It looks like the buildfix_kernel_4.3.patch, which is supposed to be
  dealing with those calls, is not applied in this release of the
  package.

  The package was working fine with the previous fully updated Ubuntu
  version 16.04 prior to the upgrade to 16.10.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1634802] Re: Could not insert module

[Mario Caves]

this bug appeared on upgrading from Ubuntu 16.04 to 16.10 on an amd64
system and breaks Nvidia making my PC  unable to log into the desktop.
I have an older graphics card which requires the Nvidia 304 driver.

This patch appears to fix the bug by providing the missing symbols,
could it be included into the kernel for Ubuntu 16.10?

[Daiwai]

I agree with Ricardo, that this bug is critical. For the video card of
one of my systems, the nouveau driver doesn't work so it is practically
unusable without the proprietary NVIDIA driver.

[Ricardo Almeida]

This was working in 16.04, now since the upgrade to 16.10 it's broken.
Should be marked as Critical. If fix was already released by Debian team
should be easy and fast to get this corrected. Please, someone look into
this!

Not working for me either :(

Is this the same issue that got fixed in Debian (https://bugs.debian.org
/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=809324)? How can we get this to be patched in
Ubuntu? My machine is not very usable at the moment :(

I can confirm: the driver was working in 16.04, but stopped working in
16.10, with the same messages about mtrr_del/mtrr_add.
