[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782] Re: [rs690m] [Gateway] Graphics corruption with ati x1200

2014-12-30 Thread ShinobiTeno
This bug was NOT ressolved even in Kernel 3.17!

Even with latest Enlighment (E19), I experience text corruption when enabling 
hardware acceleration in Compositing window.
When switching to Software rendering, there is no issue.

KDE freezes simply after certain period of work if hardware acceleration
is used.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782]

2013-11-27 Thread ShinobiTeno
Dear Mr. Deutcher, thank you for will and readiness to help in this
problem!!

I am using radeon.gart=1024, it does not help.
Then I upgraded to Tumbleweed (3.11)
Glxinfo reports:

OpenGL vendor string: X.Org R300 Project
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on ATI RS600
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 9.2.2
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20

Then I added radeon.dpm=1, there are no information about dpm or
powermanagement what so ever in dmesg (unlike 5850 card that I have). I
suggest dpm is not supported on this chip. Not great deal, but for
example, 5850 is unstable withOUT dpm in 3.11.

Lastly, of course I read all patches and responses from people in these
two bugs, and tested first switching from 256 VGA memory to 128 via BIOS
(only two options), it didn't help.

Then I appended radeon.vramlimit=64 to grub2 kernel line, updated
grub, rebooted. Nothing changed. I attach the screenshot showing the
issue with gnome-shell corruption and the login triangle issue, that is
even more agressive when system comes out of hibernation.

dmesg | grep -i radeon says:

Bug description:
  [Edit]
  This bug has been around for a bit over a year now, and has gotten rather 
long, so this is a brief summary.
  There is a memory corruption issue that affects users of the rs690m, to 
varying degrees.
  For many most people, it makes the desktop unusable.

  Workaround:   *Note: This is a workaround, not a fix.  It will give you a 
usable system.
  [Natty]: Regression: This workaround now only provides 2d/software rendering, 
and one must either:
 * Choose choose the Ubuntu Classic session from the GDM Login screen
 or
 * Install the unity-2d package.  

  [code]
  sudo su
  echo options radeon modeset=0  /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf
  exit
  [/code]
  Note that this doesn't totally fix the issue, but brings your desktop to a 
workable state.

  Freedesktop.org has dealt with one bug having to do with graphics corruption 
on the rs690m.  That bug has been fixed, but the issue of graphics corruption 
in general has not been resolved.  A new bug has been opened with 
freedesktop.org to continue pushing through the resolution of this issue.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782]

2013-11-26 Thread Brian Visel
 It works just fine a quite a few RS690 boards.

ah.  ..well, it also doesn't work for quite a few RS690 boards.

I guess it's academic for me, at this point, though -- I've long since
moved on, since I had to keep working and current, and the old driver
was dropped.

If you're reading this bug and have this issue, it's been open for
nearly three years, and isn't likely to be fixed, as far as I can tell.
If 3d acceleration is important to you, it's almost definitely worth it
to get some hardware that is better supported.  I went with Intel
graphics -- there's a lot less likelihood that support will be dropped
for that, since Intel's more helpful than ATI regarding open-source
drivers for their graphics hardware.

Well, Brian, its true regarding older hardware, lets not be blind about
all the post x1*** - 6*** cards, they are actually okay.

Also, 3D is important is a bit exaggerated, because 3D pipeline and
*everything* except this bug work really fine. There are many factors in
play on modern desktop for it to just work, but this only one bug
really damages it.

On the other hand, its so damn shame that no one wants to give a look,
even if offered full remote access to affected machine, in do what you
want, ask what you wish, mode. :(

  This bug has been around for a bit over a year now, and has gotten rather

  There is a memory corruption issue that affects users of the rs690m, to

  For many most people, it makes the desktop unusable.

  Workaround:   *Note: This is a workaround, not a fix.  It will give you a

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782]

2013-11-26 Thread ShinobiTeno
(In reply to comment #64)
 (In reply to comment #63)
  ..agreed, this really shouldn't be marked as a supported card since it's
  not actually functional.
 
 It works just fine a quite a few RS690 boards.

Hello Mr Deucher, could you please be a bit more specific which mobile
xpress x1250 are not affected? Right now I have R60 and R20, both of
which show same issues...

Can you please suggest any patch to clear the texture memory when asked
prior to submitting it for writing (within the OpenGL-specific context)?

Right now, the more one works, the more triangle surface is flawless.

Only freshly booted or freshly hibernated under go it and as time passes
these surfaces are eventually clear, except for those that never get a
chance of rewrite, like fonts textures in gnome-shell.

Also, switching TTYs is still an issue as system can simply become
unable to switch back to Xorg TTY, with screen constantly
flashing/pulsating in black. But this is not a huge blocker.

Thank you!

 You are receiving this mail because: 
   * You reported the bug.

If setting the vramlimit does work (I'm unable to test it at this point
since I no longer have the hardware) than that's a reasonable option.
Up until the time I had to get something else, none of the proposed
solutions had worked for me -- but if a functional workaround is
present, that's often preferable to buying new hardware.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782]

2013-11-26 Thread Brian Visel
  If you're reading this bug and have this issue, it's been open for
  nearly three years, and isn't likely to be fixed, as far as I can tell.
  If 3d acceleration is important to you, it's almost definitely worth it
  to get some hardware that is better supported.  I went with Intel
  graphics -- there's a lot less likelihood that support will be dropped
  for that, since Intel's more helpful than ATI regarding open-source
  drivers for their graphics hardware.
 
 Well, Brian, its true regarding older hardware, lets not be blind about all 
 the
 post x1*** - 6*** cards, they are actually okay.

Regardless, the RS690M was listed as supported, I bought hardware that I
thought would be supported for that specific reason, and then that
changed, and that leaves me with no experience or reason to recommend
ATI or the radeon driver at this point, and plenty of reason to
recommend against it.  ..the stuff that is new now becomes old
later.  ..why should I think that my experience with any other ATI card
should be different?  ..at least on the Intel side, there's the blessing
(and support) of the chip maker.

 Also, 3D is important is a bit exaggerated, because 3D pipeline and
 *everything* except this bug work really fine.

No disagreement there.  I've got an Intel graphics card that works
superbly, and there are others out there with nVidia and ATI cards that
run great, too.  What I was said was saying was (indented, so that the
if statements and their subjective clauses are more apparent):

* If you're reading this and have this issue
 * This issue has been open for nearly three years
 * It isn't likely to be fixed, from what I can tell
 * If 3d is important to you
  * It is almost definitely worth it to get some hardware that is better
supported.

..I stand by that statement.

  There are many factors in play
 on modern desktop for it to just work, but this only one bug really damages
 it.

*nod* and a lot of them work fine, and this one doesn't.  ..a perfectly
functional car with a broken drive shaft that no one knows how to fix is
still valuable -- it's just not valuable to someone who wants to drive a
car, unless that person knows how to fix it, or can sell that car, and
get another car which many people know how to fix, and which appears
less likely to break.

..I'm not looking at this and thinking That's bad work they've done,
I'm looking at it and saying No one has had the time, know-how,  and
the access to the hardware to fix this, so if you are waiting for it to
get done, my opinion is that you're better off buying more compatible
hardware in this particular case.

..then again, all it takes is someone who does have the time, know-how,
and hardware to fix this, and who wishes to donate their work.  ..if
someone does do that -- thank you.  ..that specifically won't benefit me
at this point, but thank you just on the general principle of it, and
for the people that it will benefit.  ..and thank you to everyone else
who has contributed to Linux, X, and all the layers in between and on
top -- it's phenomenal work that provides a genuine alternative to the
proprietary operating systems that are out there.

(In reply to comment #70)
 If setting the vramlimit does work (I'm unable to test it at this point
 since I no longer have the hardware) than that's a reasonable option.
 Up until the time I had to get something else, none of the proposed
 solutions had worked for me -- but if a functional workaround is
 present, that's often preferable to buying new hardware.

It is reported as a valid workaround on this very bug report.  Has
anyone else tried it?

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782]

2013-11-25 Thread ShinobiTeno
I have observed the case a bit more.
When machine is coming out of hibernation - the opensuse boot screen 
experiences corruption: 1/4 of the screen is drawn correct - the rest contains 
garbage. The pattern is pretty same - the screen is cut by four triangles with 
basements along the sides.

Important thing I noticed - the screen recovers itself after some time.
Although font damage in gnome-shell is permanent, refreshing parts of
the screen with some content has some chance to make it work as it
should. THEN it stays correct.

Also,
I suspect that initial four triangle show right after login, is gnome 3 trying 
to blend-in, by applying a four-triangle surface filled with black and then 
increasing the alpha. The moment alpha is all way up, gnome removes them. With 
this bug - it looks like triangle flash which then suddenly correct.


To sum up,
I am totally sure this is about texture memory transfer within OpenGL context, 
I am nearly sure it happens because the texture memory IS NOT CLEARED when its 
asked or the content is overwritten when stored, or the memory is not protected 
from being overwritten by garbage. However, the system is fully stable even 
when I used it with 1GiB constantly swapping.

Please, help.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782]

2013-11-24 Thread ShinobiTeno
I have installed 2 GiB of SODIMM DDR2 today, replacing the old 1 GiB module.
At OpenSuse Tumbleweed (13.1; knel 3.11/Mesa 9.2) at login screen AFTER Xorg 
has started I have hexagon (8x8) colored squares, each of them made of two 
triangles.
Each time I move mouse or type something, the triangles in approximate area 
change colors.

After login, the screen is back to normal, sans gnome-shell specific
font corruption and some extra (below).

This defects are not present with 1GiB.

Also, the Gnome3 gnome-shell border right now has flightmode symbol,
which is completely white square and sound icon that is divided in four
pieces.


I suggest this is strictly bug of Xorg driver, this is strictly bug within Mesa 
texture transfer, the content of those triangles is NOT copied right, this bug 
does NOT appear outside of Xorg or outside of OpenGL (Grub2 boots perfectly 
with zero errors via VESA) this bug's effects repeat themselves unless memory 
configuration change. With different memory config other sorts pop up, but 
previous stay. This is not bug due to insufficient memory. This bug does not 
change if different memory window is set in BIOS (I have 128 or 256, I have NO 
sideport or similar).

Please help me fix the bug! I am no programmer or developer, but give me
some tools to run on the machine or I can give you VNC/root at any time
+ paypal tip and a thank you.

Please do not be ignorant!! :(

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782]

2013-11-23 Thread ShinobiTeno
Dear Developers!!

Please tell us what are the chances that this bug can be fixed? Do you
want paypal tips? Is this bug really not worth the time that selling the
machines is a better way to go?

If you respond that its probably unfixable, please mark the radeon
feature page correspondingly, that this Card (1250) is NOT supported,
because this bug really makes the machine unusable.

Also affected notebooks: Samsung R20

Kind regards

  [Edit]
  This bug has been around for a bit over a year now, and has gotten rather

  There is a memory corruption issue that affects users of the rs690m, to

  For many most people, it makes the desktop unusable.

  Workaround:   *Note: This is a workaround, not a fix.  It will give you a 
usable system.
  [Natty]: Regression: This workaround now only provides 2d/software rendering, 
and one must either:
 * Choose choose the Ubuntu Classic session from the GDM Login screen
 or
 * Install the unity-2d package.  

  [code]
  sudo su
  echo options radeon modeset=0  /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf
  exit

  Note that this doesn't totally fix the issue, but brings your desktop to a 
workable state.

on the rs690m.  That bug has been fixed, but the issue of graphics corruption

I have problems with a clean install of 13.04  x64 and an ATI RS690M graphics

Everything is slow, menu shows artifacts and random patterns.
Proprietary drivers do not seem to support this version of ubuntu any more.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782] Re: [rs690m] Graphics corruption with ati x1200

2013-09-15 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
Brian Visel, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional 
upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily kernel 
folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream 
kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this 
bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For 
example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11.1

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next 
to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please 
remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782]

2013-09-09 Thread Stillcompiling
I just had time to try this latest patch.
Unfortunately it does not correct the issue.
Is there any way to check or change the beginning and ending addresses of
sideport memory and stolen system memory once the system is up?
If there are registers I can read or write to experiment I will be happy to
try it,but I am afraid I was unable to comprehend a lot of the register
documentation from AMD.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 556782]

2013-08-27 Thread Nicolas Delvaux
Hi Alex,

I'm afraid I don't have access to this laptop anymore, so I can't test your 
patch.
Hopefully someone from the CC list may be able to help?

Thanks anyway.

Title:
  [rs690m] Graphics corruption with ati x1200

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in X.org XServer - ATI gfx chipset driver:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  [Edit]
  This bug has been around for a bit over a year now, and has gotten rather 
long, so this is a brief summary.
  There is a memory corruption issue that affects users of the rs690m, to 
varying degrees.
  For many most people, it makes the desktop unusable.

  Workaround:   *Note: This is a workaround, not a fix.  It will give you a 
usable system.
  [Natty]: Regression: This workaround now only provides 2d/software rendering, 
and one must either:
 * Choose choose the Ubuntu Classic session from the GDM Login screen
 or
 * Install the unity-2d package.  

  [code]
  sudo su
  echo options radeon modeset=0  /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf
  exit
  [/code]
  Note that this doesn't totally fix the issue, but brings your desktop to a 
workable state.

  Freedesktop.org has dealt with one bug having to do with graphics corruption 
on the rs690m.  That bug has been fixed, but the issue of graphics corruption 
in general has not been resolved.  A new bug has been opened with 
freedesktop.org to continue pushing through the resolution of this issue.
