In relation to normal Ubuntu releases, is it expected that 10.04 LTS final will ship with this kernel, or some other (newer?) kernel that includes these fixes?

Ok, I think the 2.6.32-19.28 kernel fixes the problem. I've run three or four days, and no crashes. Everything looks much better. You can close out the bug as appropriate.

I'm on a dual boot system that is mostly for Windows 7 use, with Ubuntu just for emergencies, so I can't leave it over on Ubuntu 9.04. When I said it was usable - the display refresh is horribly slow, so you can see the screen repainting, but it's still possible to use it, just not so pleasant. Really hope this will be fixed in Lucid 10.04, and that there'll be an update for 9.04 and 9.10 as well. -- [clarkdale] entire desktop environment locks up in 9.10, i3-530 proc, built-in graphics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516909 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Has anyone had this problem on 9.04? Just asking because I have the same CPU and motherboard as KeithM, and found that 9.10 froze within minutes of booting live CD. However, 9.04 is fine so far, have been using it for a bit with no problems, and I can't see any mention of Jaunty on this page.

Richard, I've tried just about every version, including 9.04. I've been able to reproduce in 9.04, 100% of the time. Do me a favor. Can you go into the screensaver, pick GLBLUR as your screensaver, then just pick preview and let the screensaver run. You'll get a hang definitely within a day. It will probably be much faster.

Re: [Bug 516909] Re: [clarkdale] entire desktop environment locks up in 9.10, i3-530 proc, built-in graphics
KeithM, I came to think about one thing. We carry a not-bleeding-edge xserver-xorg-video-intel (2.9.1) since that gives us possibility for UMS fallback for people who have problems on their hardware and has been very stable. It may be possible that a newer driver will be able to not keep resetting indefinitely. That is, it will probably still hang, since that seems to be a kernel problem, but it may fail more graciously. Could you try the xorg-edgers PPA which contains the newest drivers and grab the same files as last time when/if it hangs again? You can upload the files directly to the upstream bug report, saying that this is from xorg-edgers. -- [clarkdale] entire desktop environment locks up in 9.10, i3-530 proc, built-in graphics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516909 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

KeithM, there is no reason to stay with the red PPA anymore, since the updates from there now has made it into the standard Lucid kernel 2.6.32-16. I think we have tried the different options that we have here and need to take this upstream. In order to give them the most up-to- date information to the intel developers it would be nice if you could reproduce with the newest drm-intel-next kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-intel-next/ booted with the kernel option drm.debug=0x02 (after quiet splash), ssh in from another computer and grab /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_error_state, /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and the output of dmesg (which will have more information than usual, due to the drm.debug=0x02 option). The automatic reporting script /usr/share/apport/apport-gpu-error- intel.py should run better now than before, but for now this manual procedure would be best. -- [clarkdale] entire desktop environment locks up in 9.10, i3-530 proc, built-in graphics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516909 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks Geir. I'm now on the specified kernel, running with the desired options. Just have to wait for a crash now. :) Here's some detailed instructions: Use this command to delete the 9238492 crash files that were generated from the last crash that you don't need: sudo bash find . -name '*.crash' | xargs rm (just doing a sudo rm -rf *.crash produces argument list too long error) Since grub2 is shipping w/ lucid, here's the new method for using a kernel option You can either edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg (which is not recommended, because this will get overwritten at certain points (like installing new kernels)) and just add your drm.debug command linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33-997-generic root=UUID=7097xxxb-5a4c-4bxx- ae11-9xx52 ro drm.debug=0x02 quiet splash OR you can edit /etc/default/grub, add GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=drm.debug=0x02 to the bottom of the file, and then sudo update-grub This will append the drm debug command to all lines, but this can be removed later and updated. I'd hope that kernels that don't understand that debug option will simply ignore it. Although I'm not likely to be booting those now anyways.

[This is an automatic notification.] Thanks for reporting this bug to help making the Intel graphics driver better. We hear from upstream that a number of bugs (possibly including this one) have been fixed in the newer DRM code from the 2.6.33 kernel. I don't know if your bug is one of the ones fixed in this release, though, but we've prepared a PPA with this DRM update. Would you mind installing this, rebooting, and testing if the original issue can be reproduced with it or not?

madbiologist said You must be getting frustrated. Yeah, that's actually an understatement. The bottom line is that I can't keep my hardware here idle all day, doing nothing, besides doing stability tests. I've got a brand new machine I've built which is essentially unusable. It's my fault for selecting a brand new processor, integrated graphics, etc. Bleeding edge indeed. I'm sure this problem will eventually get addressed, but I need to start using this machine now. I've already wasted too many cycles. CentOS 5.3 and Fedora 12 seem to work fine, and I have no idea what that tells us about the problem. Thanks for the help support.

Sounds like it's time to get busy backporting. Three different backporting options are currently being discussed on the ubuntu-x mailing list. I hope it is not left to users to fix this by installing a LBM (the third option being discussed), although the idea at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-x/2010-February/000751.html would make this much simpler. BTW, the newly released Lucid package xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.9.1-1ubuntu6 will make it easier to debug this issue with kernel 2.6.32 - according to https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-x/2010-February/000762.html it triggers the apport bug info collector when X freezes. Although on second thought, that is probably of limited use, since we now know that the issue is fixed with kernel 2.6.33.

The GL in GLBLUR sounds like OpenGL. You probably already know that OpenGL is the 3D graphics acceleration system in Linux. Using this will stress the graphics stack (kernel+Mesa3D+driver) more than ordinary desktop work, and may possibly expose some remaining bugs and/or limitations. My guess is that that is what has happened here. Did apport trigger and create a bug report? If so, you can use apport- collect 516909 to attach the data from the crash to this bug report.
