Public bug reported: Description: Linux Mint 20 Release: 20
Hi, I suffered from a bug when resuming my laptop, the error would say something related to the "dma push buffer" I googled and found this thread on the problem, which has been going for a long time. https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/regression-460-series-black- screen-on-boot-nvidia-modeset-error-gpu-failed-to-allocate-display- engine-core-dma-push-buffer/165598/33 This problem still exists on the 470 series of the driver. I "solved" my problem by reverting back to driver 450, which wasn't an easy task as the packages disappear from the archives when new packages arrive, so I had to find them from backups and other people. My laptop will often reset X when waking from sleep, so I'm still not operating bug-free. The most recent post in that thread (see link) suggests that it is related to the Ubuntu/Debian packaging. quote: ------------- So I distro-hopped from Elementary OS (Ubuntu variant) to Fedora and the issues disappeared for me. Decided to retry Elementary OS and the issue came back. To finally fix this on my machine I uninstalled the nvidia driver deb packges and reinstall them using the NVIDIA-*.run install file instead and it worked. Now I’m running Elementary OS using nvidia without sleep- resume crashing. Feels like whomever is packaging the nvidia-drivers for Ubuntu is doing something which doesn’t play nice with my laptop. -------------------- So I want to bring this to the attention of the Debian/Ubuntu package team, hopefully they can take an interest and pursue this bug, because it is a huge pain for me and others. Best regards, Paul Here are the relevant versions I have currently: $ dpkg -l | grep nvidia | grep ^.i hi libnvidia-cfg1-450:amd64 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA binary OpenGL/GLX configuration library hi libnvidia-common-450 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 all Shared files used by the NVIDIA libraries hi libnvidia-compute-450:amd64 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA libcompute package hi libnvidia-compute-450:i386 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 i386 NVIDIA libcompute package hi libnvidia-decode-450:amd64 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA Video Decoding runtime libraries hi libnvidia-decode-450:i386 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 i386 NVIDIA Video Decoding runtime libraries hi libnvidia-encode-450:amd64 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVENC Video Encoding runtime library hi libnvidia-encode-450:i386 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 i386 NVENC Video Encoding runtime library hi libnvidia-extra-450:amd64 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 Extra libraries for the NVIDIA driver hi libnvidia-fbc1-450:amd64 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA OpenGL-based Framebuffer Capture runtime library hi libnvidia-fbc1-450:i386 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 i386 NVIDIA OpenGL-based Framebuffer Capture runtime library hi libnvidia-gl-450:amd64 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA OpenGL/GLX/EGL/GLES GLVND libraries and Vulkan ICD hi libnvidia-gl-450:i386 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 i386 NVIDIA OpenGL/GLX/EGL/GLES GLVND libraries and Vulkan ICD hi libnvidia-ifr1-450:amd64 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA OpenGL-based Inband Frame Readback runtime library hi libnvidia-ifr1-450:i386 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 i386 NVIDIA OpenGL-based Inband Frame Readback runtime library hi nvidia-compute-utils-450 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA compute utilities hi nvidia-dkms-450 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA DKMS package hi nvidia-driver-450 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA driver metapackage hi nvidia-kernel-common-450 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 Shared files used with the kernel module hi nvidia-kernel-source-450 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA kernel source package ii nvidia-prime 0.8.16~0.20.04.1 all Tools to enable NVIDIA's Prime ii nvidia-prime-applet 1.2.9 all An applet for NVIDIA Prime hi nvidia-settings 460.39-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 Tool for configuring the NVIDIA graphics driver hi nvidia-utils-450 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA driver support binaries ii screen-resolution-extra 0.18build1 all Extension for the nvidia-settings control panel hi xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-450 450.119.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 amd64 NVIDIA binary Xorg driver ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-470-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1940157 Title: nvidia-modeset ERROR GPU:0 Failed to allocate display engine core dma push buffer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-470-server/+bug/1940157/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
