Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

X stopped functioning showing only garbage and a mouse pointer on screen. Ctrl-Alt-Del successfully rebooted the system. I'm attaching kern.log, look at line 3968 and further.

So far it has only happened once and I recently pulled in the latest week's upgrades for Lucid, including a kernel upgrade from .19 to .21.

I just wanted to note that this still occurs with updated drm/X/mesa/ati from x-org edgers. Also, the problem goes away if I install mountall from the mediahacks PPA and purge plymouth.

Given the output, I'm suspecting the kernel DRM driver. Since it sounds like it was a recent regression, try booting earlier kernels (-18 or -19) and see if the issue goes away. If so, then this sounds like perhaps a kernel regression.

Otherwise, please attach a photo showing the garbage on the screen.

In this bug report
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/568605
the reporter seems to have the same problem and reports that it worked for him until -19
But its just a guess from me. Dont know if it is the same error.

Michael B. Trausch (mtrausch) wrote on 2010-04-22:

This does look like it's similar to my bug 568605, but I used the kernel as the thing to blame, since this problem also affects the standard text-mode console with KMS. I am currently running the packaged upstream to see if the problem persists there, and will try other upstream kernels built using the Ubuntu config files to see if I can replicate this at all upstream. I don't know where the git kernel trees are for Lucid, or I would try to bisect the problem (though note that as unreliably reproducable as this problem appears to be, it may take me longer to bisect than there is time until release day; I'd expect to be able to perform one bisection step every 24–48 hours to try to determine if the problem exists in the kernel or not). Usually anytime I bisect a kernel problem, there are anywhere from 8 to 15 steps involved, so I'd expect anywhere from 16 to 30 days to work through a full bisection properly unless I can find some way to trigger this bug on-demand.

I guess the question then is should bug 568605 or this bug be the master bug? I'll let someone closer to the Ubuntu development process handle that decision.

Since the other bug is against linux already, lets dupe this one to that. I'll give some further thoughts there.
