[Bug 1370720] [NEW] unity-settings-daemon can deadlock if a modeset fails

2014-09-17 Thread Aaron Plattner
Public bug reported:

The system I used to reproduce this bug was a laptop with two display
devices (one DisplayPort, one DVI) connected to a docking station.

Dock the laptop.  unity-settings-manager triggers a display change to
extended mode.  Then, undock the laptop.  The following sequence of
events triggers a deadlock:

1. The system generates an ACPI event that video.ko turns into a display change 
hotkey press.
2. Something sees the display change hotkey event and calls 
unity-settings-manager via dbus.
3. The X driver sees the DVI monitor go away and updates the RandR 
configuration.
4. unity-settings-manager enters handle_fn_f7() and calls 
gnome_rr_screen_refresh().
5. gnome_rr_screen_refresh() sees that the configuration changed and calls the 
callbacks.
6. The X driver sees the DP monitor go away and updates the RandR configuration.
7. on_randr_event() tries to reconfigure the desktop with the DVI monitor 
disabled and the DP monitor enabled.
8. The RandR SetCrtcConfig call fails because it's trying to set a mode on a 
disconnected output.
9. apply_configuration() calls error_message(), which tries to pop up a dialog 
box.

Step #9 deadlocks because gnome_rr_screen_refresh() called XGrabServer()
in step #5.

Upstream gnome-settings-daemon fixed this with commit 
0f7cbfed5e5e76824e057ce9c570fad66ba001c6.
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-settings-daemon/commit/?id=0f7cbfed5e5e76824e057ce9c570fad66ba001c6

This change cherry-picks cleanly to unity-settings-daemon.

(as an aside, the video.ko display change hotkey events are entirely
pointless and probably deserve their own bug)

ACPI / bind: Prefer device objects with _STA to those without it

As reported at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60829,
there still are cases in which do_find_child() doesn't choose the
ACPI device object it is expected to choose if there are more such
objects matching one PCI device present.  This particular problem may
be worked around by making do_find_child() return device obejcts witn
_STA whose result indicates that the device is enabled before device
objects without _STA if there's more than one device object to choose
from.

This change doesn't affect the case in which there's only one
matching ACPI device object per PCI device.

Hi Sebastian,

It probably doesn't matter for the Debian build system, but Stephen's
version of the change breaks distcheck.  I'd suggest using the upstream
version: git format-patch -1 ca9e637c61e80145f0625a590c91429db67d0a40

[Bug 967091] Re: Wrong tint in flash when it uses video acceleration

2012-10-23 Thread Aaron Plattner
Strange.  The line in question is the one I mentioned in my reply to
Stephen's original mail:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/vdpau/2012-September/23.html

 +
 +libvdpausysconfdir=$(sysconfdir)
 +libvdpausysconf_DATA = vdpau_wrapper.cfg

 This breaks distcheck:

 make[3]: *** No rule to make target `vdpau_wrapper.cfg', needed by `all-am'.  
 Stop.

 I think this needs to be dist_libvdpausysconf_DATA.

I'm not sure why you wouldn't be seeing that in the Debian package since
your debdiff adds the incorrect line rather than the fixed version in
the upstream repository:

+@@ -27,3 +28,6 @@ libvdpauincludedir = $(includedir)/vdpau
+ libvdpauinclude_HEADERS = \
+ $(top_srcdir)/include/vdpau/vdpau.h \
+ $(top_srcdir)/include/vdpau/vdpau_x11.h
++
++libvdpausysconfdir=$(sysconfdir)
++libvdpausysconf_DATA = vdpau_wrapper.cfg

In any case, if it works for you and no one is actually expecting to use
dist / distcheck from the Ubuntu package, then the difference is moot.

[Bug 1037896] Re: Starting Firefox kills xserver immediately when using 2D desktop

2012-08-23 Thread Aaron Plattner
As Daniel mentioned, the problem is in OpenGL.  If you are willing to
run without it, you can work around the problem for now by disabling the
glx module in /etc/X11/xorg.conf by adding the following lines:

Section Module
Disable glx
EndSection

This issue was caused because the video driver ABI version was changed
correctly, but nobody noticed that the extension module ABI needed to be
bumped as well.  That's why the problem only affects libglx and not the
nvidia X driver.

Please note that we do not officially support pre-release or release
candidate X servers.

No, the Xid messages are not documented, they're internal error codes to

2012-03-10 Thread Aaron Plattner
Anoop, these symptoms sound very much like a hardware problem that
causes the GPU to sometimes lose contact with the rest of the system.
Please make sure your case is free of dust and that the fans are
unobstructed, that all connectors are seated firmly, and that your power
supply has a sufficiently high power rating.  If you still experience
the problem, please try running nvidia-settings and selecting the
Thermal Settings tab to monitor the GPU temperature to see whether
it's unreasonably high when the errors occur.  Finally, if you have a
different GPU you could try in the same system, you could tell if the
one you're using is simply damaged.  Moving the GPU to a different slot,
if one is available, might also help.

Thanks, Joakim.  On the contrary, that's quite interesting.  The first
four bytes should never be all 0xff if the GPU is configured correctly
by the kernel.  If the kernel has misconfigured the GPU in such a way
that it cannot respond to register reads, the driver has no hope of
working.

2011-05-04 Thread Aaron Plattner
I think that's the wrong resource0 file (for bus 0 device 2, rather than bus 2 
device 0).  Probably easier to use the symlinks:
/sys/bus/pci/devices/:02:00.0/resource0

However, you can't call read() on those files, they can only be mmap'd.

TJ, that rm_is_supported_device function reads registers that it sounds
like are reading back as 0x.  You should be able to read the
DWORD at BAR0 offset 0.  If it reads as 0x, then the GPU is not
configured correctly.  You should be able to do that before even loading
the NVIDIA RM.

@TJ: The BAR configuration registers are in the PCI configuration space.
I'm talking about the registeres accessed via memory read/write cycles
to the addresses configured there.  E.g., open /dev/mem and read at the
offset that lspci reports for Region 0 for your GPU.  Alternatively,
mmap /sys/devices/path/to/the/gpu/resource0 and read offset 0.

2011-02-09 Thread Aaron Plattner
xserver 1.10 doesn't exist yet, and the ABI it's going to use won't be
frozen until 1.10 RC2 (a.k.a 1.9.99.902) is released.  Until then, the
NVIDIA driver can't assume that the ABI won't change in the future.

I pinged the people responsible for releases, but didn't hear anything
back.  The official xserver 1.10 release is scheduled for Friday the
18th, according to my calendar, so hopefully RC2 will be soon.

At least NVidias Aaron Plattner claims it is merely a regression in
xserver 1.9.

I didn't say that.  All I said was that if an experiment shows that
using the same driver, xserver 1.8 is fast and xserver 1.9 is slow, that
it's not reasonable to immediately assume that the problem is in the
driver.  It's still possible for the problem to be in the driver, but we
now have one point of circumstantial evidence that it's not (except that
you just contradicted your earlier posts by saying that 256.44 is *not*
slow with xserver 1.9).  Somebody needs to do some more investigation to
say for sure one way or the other.  I don't have time to look at it
right now, I'm afraid.

A driver with support for the new ABI should be out relatively soon,
though I can't make any actual promises as to a release date.

If scrolling using the same driver but a different X server shows
different performance, it's highly likely that the regression is in the
X server and not the driver.

Hi Benjamin.  This is the first I've heard of this bug, so I'll try to
take a look at it as soon as I can.

Please note that just checking for the NV-CONTROL extension is not
sufficient, because some screens may be using the NVIDIA driver while
others use different drivers.  If the extension exists, you can use
XNVCTRLIsNvScreen to query if a given screen is using the NVIDIA driver.
However, please don't do that.  I'd much rather just fix the driver if
it's broken then have a driver-specific workaround in place that we need
to get rid of eventually.

Right, the code was added for xserver 1.7.0, so Lucid should work since

You mentioned Karmic, which ships xserver 1.6.4:

I would not expect that to work correctly with Vino+Compiz since it lacks the

[Bug 353126] Re: Compiz / vnc screen refresh with nvidia-restricted driver/VirtualBox/ATI fglrx driver using X.org

2010-05-05 Thread Aaron Plattner
 while the screen updates under this setting, it was noticeably slower
than having visual effects set to none (no compiz)

This is expected.  When no composite manager is running, the X server
sends damage events only for the parts of the screen that changed.
Because Compiz uses a much more complex API (OpenGL) to update the
screen, it instead generates damage events that cover the whole screen.
This makes the VNC server have to read back the whole screen instead of
only a small part of it.  When I tried it, x11vnc was much better than
vino about updating the screen efficiently.

No, the legacy branches do not have the code to take advantage of the
code I added to the X server, and are unlikely to get it because those
branches are limited to support for new kernels and X servers, and
critical bug fixes only.  This is basically a new feature.  The latest
drivers do have code to take advantage of it, but it's not completely
correct as I described in my comment #245.

[Bug 353126] Re: Compiz / vnc screen refresh with nvidia-restricted driver/VirtualBox/ATI fglrx driver using X.org

2010-04-26 Thread Aaron Plattner
I looked into this today and found that the NVIDIA driver does not
correctly generate damage events for a given window when the OpenGL
rendering is actually happening to a child window.  In this case, x11vnc
is listening for damage events on the root, but Compiz is rendering to
the Composite Overlay Window, which counts as a child window as far as
this code is concerned.  I'll try to fix the window hierarchy problem
for a future release.

In the meantime, you can work around the problem by using Compiz's
--use-root-window option, or by modifying Compiz to call
XCreateDamage(dpy, cow, XDamageReportNonEmpty) to trigger damage events
on the root window when it renders to the COW.

I'll try to take a look at this soon.  It's suspicious that it started
occurring with a GDM update, but it'll take some digging to figure out
what's going wrong.

2010-04-13 Thread Aaron Plattner
I can't reproduce this problem.  I used the default Ubuntu GDM setup,
and I also tried installing xubuntu-gdm-theme.  I don't think the latter
worked correctly, though because I get a boring purple background and a
little terminal picture at the top of the login prompt.  Hopefully the
xubuntu theme isn't supposed to be quite so ugly...

I'll need to try with a fresh install, I guess, though I won't have time
to do that any time soon.

[Bug 534881] [NEW] PulseAudio's Pidgin volume control slider keeps disappearing before I can adjust it

2010-03-08 Thread Aaron Plattner
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pulseaudio

Compared to my music player application, Pidgin is ridiculously loud.
Normally, I would adjust its volume in the per-application volume tab,
but the slider for it appears only while the sound is actually playing.
I have to have a friend constantly send me messages to trigger the sound
so I can adjust it.

The Pidgin slider should be visible whenever Pidgin is running, not just
when Pidgin is actually playing a sound.

[Bug 200868] Re: nvidia-settings doesn't have permissions to write xorg.conf

2009-06-24 Thread Aaron Plattner
lewmur, .nvidia-settings-rc is not an executable, it's a configuration
file that nvidia-settings uses to save user preferences for the server
configuration.  Wearing my Ubuntu user hat, I would personally prefer
not having it save things like my brightness and contrast settings in
root's home directory by default.  If the gksudo change is applied and
then the bug is later fixed some other way, users will be confused when
the settings they had previously saved into ~root/.nvidia-settings-rc
are no longer applied because the program is now reading ~/.nvidia-
settings-rc instead.

Wearing my upstream maintainer hat, I don't really have a say in what
Ubuntu does here.  If there's a way of changing xorg.conf from a non-
root program in a reasonably standard and reasonably distro-agnostic
way, I'll be sure to include it upstream.

How large is your cursor?  This looks like typical corruption that is

software cursor code.  If it's larger than 64x64, please try using a
smaller cursor.  It doesn't look that big from the screenshot, but it

 Without this patch compiz works fine again on jaunty / nvidia-glx-180.

MAXCLIENTS is defined in resource.h, which is part of the server's ABI.
You can't just change this number without also changing the ABI version and
recompiling any modules that use it.  In particular, this change causes
libglx to overrun some memory, corrupting who knows what.  While we can
probably work around this particular problem, I don't think we want to get
into the habit of supporting arbitrary unofficial changes to the server
ABI.  If you do think the ABI needs to be changed, please discuss it on
xorg-de...@lists.freedesktop.org.  There's a discussion in progress right
now about how to properly increase MAXCLIENTS without breaking other apps
that rely on having a lot of resource IDs available:

2009-02-09 Thread Aaron Plattner
Oh yeah, and I forgot to correct the text: MAXCLIENTS is actually
defined in misc.h, not resource.h, but it's still part of the ABI.

 Without this patch compiz works fine again on jaunty / nvidia-glx-180.

MAXCLIENTS is defined in resource.h, which is part of the server's ABI.
You can't just change this number without also changing the ABI version and
recompiling any modules that use it.  In particular, this change causes
libglx to overrun some memory, corrupting who knows what.  While we can
probably work around this particular problem, I don't think we want to get
into the habit of supporting arbitrary unofficial changes to the server
ABI.  If you do think the ABI needs to be changed, please discuss it on
xorg-de...@lists.freedesktop.org.  There's a discussion in progress right
now about how to properly increase MAXCLIENTS without breaking other apps
that rely on having a lot of resource IDs available:

This patch needs to be reverted.

[Bug 325115] Re: nvidia-settings no longer changes screen mode

2009-02-04 Thread Aaron Plattner
Thanks for reporting this.  I tracked this down to a regression in the X
server caused by commit 56f6fb [randr: Avoid re-querying the
configuration on everything but GetScreenResources]. The problem is that
the DIX and DDX get out of sync with respect to the mode pool, so the
DDX knows about the new configuration but the DIX doesn't. I started a
thread about it on the X.org mailing list, so hopefully it'll get
resolved before 1.6 comes out. In the meantime, you can work around the
problem by hitting the apply button, dismissing the failure dialog,
running xrandr in a terminal window, and then hitting the apply button
again.

[Bug 308410] Re: Latest Xorg removes nvidia driver ... conflicting xserver-xorg-video-4

2009-01-21 Thread Aaron Plattner
I got word from the X.org folks that ABI 5 is frozen, so the next round
of driver releases will no longer require -ignoreABI.  I *believe* there
were no breakages between the version 180.22 was complied against and
the frozen version, but I haven't verified that.  I still don't
recommend disabling the ABI check if you're not actively developing the
X server.

Attached is a patch against the 180.22 tag from
git://people.freedesktop.org/~aplattner/nvidia-installer/
(http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~aplattner/nvidia-installer/)

You can test it by extracting the .run file with the -x option, changing
to the unpacked directory, replacing the nvidia-installer with the one
you built, and then running it as ./nvidia-installer

[Bug 317703] [NEW] Add hook scripts to be run by nvidia-installer

2009-01-15 Thread Aaron Plattner
Public bug reported:

Sorry this didn't make it into 180.22, Alberto.  I finally got around to
implementing the hook script code we talked about, and the next round of
releases will include it.  Here's the relevant new section in the
manpage:

DISTRIBUTION HOOK SCRIPTS
   Because the NVIDIA installer may  interact  badly  with  distribution  
packages  that  contain  the  NVIDIA  driver,
   nvidia-installer  provides  a  mechanism  for the distribution to handle 
manual installation of the driver.  If they
   exist, nvidia-installer will run the following scripts:
  · /usr/lib/nvidia/pre-install
  · /usr/lib/nvidia/pre-uninstall
  · /usr/lib/nvidia/post-uninstall
  · /usr/lib/nvidia/post-install
  · /usr/lib/nvidia/failed-install
   Note that if installation of a new driver requires uninstallation of a 
previously installed  driver,  the  pre-  and
   post-uninstall  scripts  will be called after the pre-install script.  
If the install fails, the installer will exe‐
   cute /usr/lib/nvidia/failed-install instead of 
/usr/lib/nvidia/post-install.  These scripts should not require  user
   interaction.

   Use the --no-distro-scripts option to disable execution of these
scripts.

I don't know if nvidia-graphics-drivers-* is really the right place for
these scripts.  It might be necessary to add a new package, depending on
what you want them to do.

[Bug 316802] [NEW] Liferea tries to kill my hard drive with constant seeking after long idle periods / screen saver use

2009-01-13 Thread Aaron Plattner
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: liferea

On a number of different occasions, I've woken up or arrived home to
find my hard drive clicking very rapidly.  Moving the mouse to
deactivate the screensaver makes it stop.  Today, I logged in remotely
and iotop revealed the culprit to be liferea-bin:

Total DISK READ: 0 B/s | Total DISK WRITE: 56.82 K/s
  PID USER  DISK READ  DISK WRITE   SWAPINIOCOMMAND
27855 aaron  0 B/s   64.39 K/s  0.00 %  0.00 % liferea-bin

Unfortunately, I accidentally bumped the mouse before I could attach to
it with strace.  I've been leaving Liferea running with the feed window
open.  No other processes were causing disk I/O according to iotop.

I'm using liferea 1.4.18-0ubuntu2 in Ubuntu 8.10 running Gnome.

[Bug 200868] Re: nvidia-settings doesn't have permissions to write xorg.conf

2008-12-23 Thread Aaron Plattner
Somebody from Ubuntu needs to decide whether the setuid PolicyKit helper
is acceptable, or if something more complicated involving a daemon that
connects to dbus needs to be written.  If running a daemon is required,
then we probably won't be able to support it in the upstream code.

Assigning to Alberto to reassign to whoever makes those decisions.  Feel
free to reassign back to me if something different needs to be
implemented.
