[Bug 556865] New: Intel 865g/i915 needs ACPI: Corrupt and crashing graphics
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=556865 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=556865#c0 Summary: Intel 865g/i915 needs ACPI: Corrupt and crashing graphics Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: M.D.Cahill@bath.ac.uk QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.15) Gecko/2009102100 SUSE/3.0.15-0.1 Firefox/3.0.15 This report is mostly to inform you of a (partial) resolution to the problem. It might be a bug in it's own right; you judge. Symptoms include: Sessons failing to start if resolution is large, but available. Corrupted bitmaps on screen. Sessions crashing if resolution increased. Consoles (CTRL-ALT-F1 etc) vanishing if any of the above happen /var/log/kdm.log shows: Xorg: intel_bufmgr_fake.c:1370: drm_intel_fake_bo_exec: Assertion `ret == 0' failed. Diagnosis: /var/log/kdm.log coontains:WARNING: Error inserting i2c_core (/lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-default/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.ko): No such device WARNING: Error inserting i2c_algo_bit (/lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-default/kernel/drivers/i2c/algos/i2c-algo-bit.ko): No such device WARNING: Error inserting drm (/lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-default/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/drm.ko): No such device FATAL: Error inserting i915 (/lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-default/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915.ko): No such device Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot without ACPI 2. Use xrandr to raise resolution to maximum (1280x1024) 3. Actual Results: Display banks, returns to login screen. CTRL-ALT-F? consoles hang. Corruption of display (rather than complete failure) seem to be more marked under KDE than Gnome. I assume that when i915 fails to load, the system falls over to a less-well-maintained driver. If I boot to failsafe mode, I get no graphical login screen. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It looks as if this is the time to stop disabling ACPI, and I've told the department so. Which is why I regard my resolution as such. We have been freely using acpi=off in grub for a few years, because ACPI was causing unwanted shutdowns of our linux servers, seemingly in response to spurious temperature readings from the BIOS. It became the first thing to try if the machine was shutting down unpredictably, and it was retained even if there turned out to be a problem with RAM or disc. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
