Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

On my Karmic upgrade, Xorg periodically just blanks out (black screen) and I can never get it back.

Sshing into the machine shows the following attached logs (/var/log/kern.log)

I hope this isn't too rare an Intel chipset. It's only just started giving decent 3D performance again after the A17 patch went in.

Your config appears to be failing pretty hard; you don't get the memory layout debug output and for some reason you're falling back to using software rendering. Can you try removing all the lines from the intel section of your xorg.conf except the "accelmethod" "uxa" one?

The second dmesg is just one line, might be good to get the whole thing.

And a backtrace might help here too, can you attach gdb to X right after you start it so that when it crashes you can do a 'bt'?

There isn't much in the Intel section of the xorg.conf. If I comment everything but the UXA and driver out it won't start at all.

Here is the backtrace I got once I reset the config and got the usual corruption followed by crash:

This is with the "Intel" section pared back to just the Driver and AccelMethod lines. Didn't start at all, I suspect it needed to know where my monitor was?

I'm a little confused myself to the whole ->prev->next thing, surely (assuming prev wasn't broken) it would always point back to &bucket->head?

Xorg Log File (Working system, KMS disabled)

Following discussion on IRC and looking at a working setup (i.e.
disable KMS) the following seems to be the case.

1. With KMS enabled the intel driver doesn't get any memory
allocation.
2. This should probably be a fatal error rather than just
informational
3. In this state of affairs libdrm can see a corrupt list of memory
and crash

However 2 & 3 are probably symptoms of 1.

Let me know if there is any more information I can provide.

yes, I think so. And you can refer to http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html when filing bugs. Thanks.

What package version is this fix released in? Should be using Bryce's
pvt PPA or the Ubuntu X Edgers PPA?

Actually, the upstream bug this is connected to is reporting two separate issues. The first of the two issues is the one that is fixed. You are seeing the second issue. mdz is seeing the same problem and collected some good debug info so I've forwarded his upstream:

  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22336

I'll set yours as a dupe of his.

I don't think this is relate to xorg#21480 ... but I do think launchpad #395855 is probably a dupe of this. xorg#22383 seems more closely related. xorg#22336 seems like a red herring.

Sorry I got those last two bugs swapped. xorg 22336 seems like the relevant one.

The upstream bug is marked fixed, although it's a little ambiguous what exactly the fix is. In any case I know from other people's testing that a HUGE amount of bugs of this class have been fixed in recent months so it's a good guess this bug is gone.

If I'm wrong, Amit please reopen with a fresh Xorg.0.log and I'll follow up with upstream.

I haven't seen this in a while now. So I assume it got fixed somewhere
along the way. THanks.

I have similar issues on Dell Optiplex GX260. Ubuntu 9.10 is fully updated. I have updated Bios from version A05 to A09 - this didn't helped a lot.

I have added in /etc/X11/xorg.conf in section "Device" (don't know if this has any effect) :

Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"

I have commented out in etc/X11/xorg.conf in section "Module" :
# Load "glx"
# Load "GLcore"
# Load "dri"
# Load "v4l"

Currently it is working fine. I will report again if there will be any new lockups. I have attached my xorg.conf.
