nouveau on NV17: screen remains black with randr12 on Nouveau works quite fine without randr12. When I activate the Randr12 option, the screen remains black. I have difficulties to stop the server or even reboot. I type Ctrl+Alt+Backspace and Ctrl+Alt+Del several times. The screen comes back to the virtual console but is like being slowly flooded of white fluid (picture to come). I finally manage to see the graphical shutdown screen (usplash on Ubuntu) but the screen dispa corrupted GDM Ubuntu theme (another picture to come). And the computer finally reboots. I attach the X logs with and without Randr12, xorg.conf and captures of the screen corruptions. The version is the Ubuntu package by raof updated daily. It is dated "Sun Jan 20 18:38:11 2008 +0000". Libdrm2 is also updated daily from a snapshot. I now have deinstalled the graphical boot but no change.
Created attachment 13843 [details] X log without randr12 A log from a happy working session.
Created attachment 13844 [details] X log with randr12 This time the screen remains black, and hard to reboot the computer.
Created attachment 13845 [details] the xorg I comment and uncomment "Option 'Randr12' True" for my tests.
Created attachment 13846 [details] screen blooming You could also see the VC 1 text below, but at this time it was blank. I shot other impressive ones!
Created attachment 13847 [details] the gdm theme comes back on screen but corrupted while rebooting I think the structure being drawn would help you identify the nature of the corruption.
A last note: obviously I can switch to a git checkout to test patches and bisecting.
Is this now fixed?
Yes it is!
