[Bug 259808] Re: X Lockup in Intrepid (infinite loop)
Ok I have updated the kernel and some kde package via apt-get dist-upgrade but I still have the same problem. No improvement. It would be nice to have one xorg maintainer here to tell us what we should do to help in an as efficient as possible way. My config : nvidia driver (and not nv), one screen only, xinerama off in xorg.conf. A fresh and up to date intrepid kubuntu (no upgrade from 8.04 but a fully new install). X lockup during at least 10s. No real way to know what triggers that bug but I occurs each time I try to select files in a plamoid directory view.

It would be nice to have one xorg maintainer here to tell us what we should do to help in an as efficient as possible way. Well, we're still awaiting a backtrace on the issue. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing for directions. Also take note as mentioned above that the [mi] EQ overflowing... is a generic error message that gets printed for a variety of different error cases. So, probably everyone who is saying me too on this bug is probably in reality having a completely separate, unrelated bug. None of which have been reported with enough data to begin troubleshooting on.

[Bug 259808] Re: X Lockup in Intrepid (infinite loop)
Same problem in kde4.1.1, nvidia-177. Desktop effects on/off doesn't matter. X always hangs just after logging in to kde4, random lockups occurs when using X. [mi] mieqEnequeue: out-of-order valuator event; dropping. [mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop. Many of these in X.org.log. The look is released after about 30 seconds, and then one can use X again, until next lockup. This problem started when installing nvidia 177.70, but doesn't look to be unique to nvidia. -- X Lockup in Intrepid (infinite loop) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259808 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

I believe this may be a dupe of bug #262605. Can anyone else seeing this behavior attempt to strace their X.org and see if the same behavior is seen as in that bug?

[Bug 259808] Re: X Lockup in Intrepid (infinite loop)
I don't think that this issue is confined to nvidia graphics as you have marked it. Olivier has said it occurs on ATI and I am having the problem on Intel. If it is, in fact, related to bug #262605, then I suspect the bug is in the DRM/DRI (not sure which terminology is proper her) infrastructure, possibly in-kernel, or the X interface to it. An ioctl is being called repeatedly and being interrupted.

fair enough.

[Bug 259808] Re: X Lockup in Intrepid (infinite loop)
Can you suggest a way to get a proper backtrace? I've tried the steps suggested in the wiki, but despite having xserver-xorg-core-dbg, xserver-xorg-video-intel-dbg, and libgl1-mesa-dri-dbg installed, gdb cannot seem to resolve addresses into symbolic names. Do I need to point to the debug libraries specifically somehow? I have had the error messages mentioned above in some of my X logs after lockups, but I also have the strace and exact behavior of the other bug. Additionally, disabling compiz (as mentioned in the other bug) has prevented EITHER condition from recurring. Perhaps I should follow up only with the other bug? (Though, if I could get a backtrace, it might help clarify and would certainly help the other bug report.) -- X Lockup in Intrepid (infinite loop) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259808 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

I don't think the issue is driver related. The errors messages come from http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/tree/mi/mieq.c I'll try to get a backtrace. But it won't come today or tomorrow.

[Bug 259808] Re: X Lockup in Intrepid (infinite loop)
I am seeing the same behavior with intel graphics. It seems to occur after ~10-15 minutes of idle time, perhaps brought on by gnome- screensaver starting?
