Can you attach the output of hwinfo? Also, can you attach your /var/log/messages after a hang? I've seen behavior like this before and it's usually due to Xorg and the kernel becoming out of sync due to a bug in one or the other (including crashes). -- 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.

contain a backtrace and also "[mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop."

I suspect this is https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26980

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=684634 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=684634#c14 --- Comment #14 from Egbert Eich 2011-04-20 10:04:29 UTC --- The 'infinite loop' messages occurs because the Xserver main thread is busy waiting on some graphics operation to complete which never does. If the user then moves the mouse to see what's going on the input event queue fills up as pointer events are handled asynchronously but cannot be serviced. I'm afraid that no promises can be made when such issues will get fixed as nouveau is purely a reverse engineering effort with no support at all from the NVIDIA side while GPUs are rather complicated beasts. For now the best we can do is to disable acceleration where problems arise. Let's record the PCI ids of the NVIDIA chipsets we are seeing reported here and work from there. Here it is a: 10de:0a3c:17aa:2145 (nva5). I doubt that disabling acceleration will downgrade performance as much as that the system will become unusable. Desktop effects should automatically become disabled. Scrolling and moving windows might become slightly jerky however starting up applications should not be affected much as this involves little rendering - Unless of course apps rely heavily on OpenGL rendering: those will become rather unusable. -- 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.

But you can also use packages from home:jobermayr [esp. drm-nouveau kernel package] which contain latest graphics drivers to see whether such issues are already fixed compared to the ~ 4-6 months old driver stack used in openSUSE 11.4 ... -- 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.

Johannes, what's different between your home project and X11:XOrg? If none, we should probably be suggesting using the official project. If there are differences, why are there?

Daily updates to current git (kernel stack(s), libdrm, Mesa (debug build), DDX drivers, some development tools, ...) which (of course) X11:XOrg does not provide since (of course again) openSUSE is not a so bleeding edge distribution. See for example: bug # 663745 But you as a openSUSE kernel developer should know it better than me ... So maintainers must not wonder if people have "fixed" problems on openSUSE ... -- 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.
