Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
I started with basic Natty, and experienced this problem, so I tried the xorg-edgers ppa to see if the problem was fixed (it was not). In dmesg, I get many instances of this error: [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: no space while hiding cursor Unlike some other bug reports about this same message in dmesg, I do not ever experience mouse cursor disappearance. The performance drops off rapidly as a function of how long the system is running (after about a day, the system is *really* sluggish). The attached data was generated after 1.5 days of uptime, and the laptop is horribly slow right now. Also, I get display corruption frequently (the longer the system is running, the more often / more severely it happens). A small block (perhaps 50x20px) of output displayed elsewhere on the screen gets put in a random place. For example, a rectangle from the top left of the display may be rendered in the bottom right, completely out of place. If I run the mouse cursor over the corrupted area, it usually (but not always) fixes the corruption. I believe these reports are duplicates or strong relatives: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nouveau/+bug/583760 http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35360 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353059 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537065 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: xorg 1:7.6+4ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-8.41-generic 2.6.38.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.38-8-generic x86_64 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,bailer,detection,composite,opengl,decor,mousepoll,vpswitch,regex,animation,snap,expo,move,compiztoolbox,place,grid,imgpng,gnomecompat,wall,ezoom,workarounds,staticswitcher,resize,fade,unitymtgrabhandles,scale,session,unityshell] CompositorRunning: None DRM.card0.DP.1: status: disconnected enabled: disabled dpms: Off modes: edid-base64: DRM.card0.DP.2: status: connected enabled: enabled dpms: On modes: 1680x1050 1280x1024 1280x1024 1280x960 1152x864 1024x768 1024x768 1024x768 832x624 800x600 800x600 800x600 800x600 640x480 640x480 640x480 640x480 720x400 edid-base64: AP///////wBMLXwDMjJRQQUSAQOALx54KnjxplVImyYSUFS/74CzAIGAgUBxTwEBAQEBAQEBfC6QoGAaHkAwIDYA2igRAAAaAAAA/QA4Sx5RDgAKICAgICAgAAAA/ABTeW5jTWFzdGVyCiAgAAAA/wBIOU5RMTA5MDE0CiAgAO0= DRM.card0.VGA.1: status: disconnected enabled: disabled dpms: Off modes: edid-base64: DRM.card0.eDP.1: status: connected enabled: enabled dpms: On modes: 1440x900 1440x900 1152x864 1024x768 800x600 edid-base64: AP///////wAw5FcCAAAAAAATAQSVHhN4AteFk1lUjCkiUFQAAAABAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEByiGggFCEFDAwIDYAML4QAAAacBegwFCEFDAwIDYAML4QAAAaAAAA/gA4NzVWS4AxNDFXUDIKAAAAAAAAQTEhAAAAAAkBCiAgAJk= Date: Fri Apr 8 00:25:50 2011 DistUpgraded: Log time: 2011-03-22 17:10:49.595024 DistroCodename: natty DistroVariant: ubuntu GdmLog1: GdmLog2: GraphicsCard: nVidia Corporation GT218 [NVS 3100M] [10de:0a6c] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:040a] LiveMediaBuild: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release amd64 (20101007) MachineType: Dell Inc.
