https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=800686 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=800686#c0 Summary: graphics corrupted with 3.7 kernel and nouveau driver on nvidia FX5200 hardware Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Factory Version: 12.3 Beta 1 Platform: i686 OS/Version: SUSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: lee_matheson@hotmail.com QAContact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created an attachment (id=522124) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=522124) dmesg file User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0 The 3.7 kernel nouveau driver provides a corrupted display when booting to a PC with an older nvidia FX5200 graphic card. This was tested with the openSUSE-12.3 32-bit beta1 KDE liveCD. Similar corruption was noted on an openSUSE-12.2 with the Tumbleweed 3.7.2 kernel on an LXDE desktop. The openSUSE-12.2 3.4.6 kernel (with nouveau) works fine on this same PC with both a KDE and an LXDE desktop. With openSUSE-12.3 KDE4 (from liveCD) when (despite the kalidascope desktop appearance) I attempted to open a konsole, KDE4 crashed, sending me to a log on screen. I was able to use <ctrl><alt><F2> to obtain a full screen terminal and I will attach various log messages from that. There are a number of nouveau messages in dmesg prior to KDE crash. I will attach dmesg in attachment. Also, after boot to corrupted KDE desktop (with kaladascope colours), I note in the dmesg these entries around the time of the KDE crash : [ 271.664014] nouveau E[ 1191] failed to idle channel 0xcccc0000 [ 271.668002] [sched_delayed] sched: RT throttling activated [ 275.240021] nouveau E[ 2043] failed to idle channel 0xcccc0000 [ 351.592015] nouveau E[ 2481] failed to idle channel 0xcccc0000 [ 354.800022] nouveau E[ 2703] failed to idle channel 0xcccc0000 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot to openSUSE-12.3 beta1 KDE liveCD, or upgrade an openSUSE-12.2 Tumbleweed to 3.7 kernel 2. 3. Actual Results: Obtain a kaladscope of colours with mostly unuseable desktop after 'successful' KDE boot. opening a terminal in openSUSE-12.3 beta1 boot caused KDE to crash. I note opening a konsole in openSUSE-12.2 Tumbleweed with 3.7.2 kernel did not crash LXDE (konsole opened) albeit text was badly corrupted (albeit barely readable). Expected Results: Expect clean desktop, similar to superb graphics when using openSUSE-12.2 with 3.6.8 kernel. I took pictures of screen corruption and I will add those in a subsequent entry to this bug report. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Note the corruption appears similar (but lxde appeared a bit more stable than KDE with this corruption): http://www.imagebam.com/image/fec77e234038855 Rolling back from 3.7.2 to a 3.4.6 kernel and the LXDE desktop worked fine once again. To me this points to this problem being inside the nouveau driver in the kernel. There is an openSUSE forum Tumbleweed thread here on this: https://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/tumbleweed/48251... My apologies for being so slow in testing 12.3 factory releases - in my defense my paid job was incredibly busy last year, and I've been out of continent for a month on vacation, and since getting back I have been ill.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=800686 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=800686#c8 --- Comment #8 from Lee Matheson 2013-02-08 20:26:04 UTC --- I checked the graphics on openSUSE-12.3 RC1 32-bit KDE liveCD (which has a 3.7.6-1.2-default kernel). It has the same corrupted graphics with the nouveau driver and the nvidia FX5200 [NV34] graphic hardware. The "Version" drop down menu does not (yet) allow me to select 12.3 RC1 for this bug report. I checked two other GNU/Linux distributions that have a 3.7.x kernel: * Porteus-1.2 (release candidate version) which has the 3.7.5 kernel (and is slackware based). It booted to a corrupted desktop similar to openSUSE Tumbleweed (with a 3.7.x kernel) and similar to openSUSE-12.3 beta1 and RC1 with their 3.7.x kernels. * Bodhi-2.2.0-32 which has the 3.7.0-7 kernel (and is Ubuntu based). It booted to a corrupted desktop similar to openSUSE Tumbleweed (with a 3.7.x kernel) and similar to openSUSE-12.3 beta1 and RC1 with their 3.7.x kernels. I also checked the Knoppix-7.0.5 with its 3.6.11 kernel booted fine with the nouveau driver, to a nice 1680x1050 resolution on this same old PC with FX5200 (NV34) hardware (with special desktop effects working nicely). The above supports the theory I have that the upstream 3.7.x kernel has a broken nouveau driver for the nVidia FX5200 graphic hardware, as even as late as the 3.6.11 kernel the graphics were working ok with the nouveau driver. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Nomodeset causing VESA driver to run works (albeit performance with VESA is slow and resolution low). This problem with the FX5200 (NV34) and the nouveau driver in the 3.7.x kernel appears to be an upstream problem as many other GNU/Linux distributions are now reporting the same problem with the 3.7.x kernels. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

...

Is it better with this kernel: http://labs.suse.cz/jslaby/bug-800686/

Yes that 3.7.10-desktop kernel definitely is better. With that kernel installed, when I boot with a 32-bit openSUSE-12.3 GM version (on LXDE desktop) I obtain a proper GUI with the nouveau driver without the corruption reported in this bug report. Resolution of 1680 x 1050 on my PC with the nouveau driver - and no desktop GUI corruption. :) Again, my PC graphics (same as above posts) : 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1) I saved to my local hard drive dmesg, Xorg.0.log and /var/log/messages from BEFORE and AFTER installing the kernel you noted, and can post them if you wish. I can't see anything of note in them, but then again I likely don't know what to look for. Let me know if you wish them posted here. I am still testing this now functioning nouveau on this 32-bit openSUSE-12.3 GM with the 3.7.10-0-desktop kernel you pointed to (i.e. installing video players etc ... ) to try and assess it better. But thus far I have no reason to believe it does not work. Well done and thank you. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
