boot into X, first suspend/resume went fine, second suspend/resume triggered the PGRAPH_ERROR

Almost every time I suspend/resume, a PGRAPH_ERROR appears in dmesg. I cannot see any bad consequences of it, but it doesn't seem normal so I thought I would report it.

Comment 2 Ben Skeggs 2009-10-02 01:24:44 UTC
The message is harmless.  You'll also so it on the first X startup after a cold boot in all likelihood.  The cause isn't known exactly, but I suspect it's random garbage in the card's error reporting regs and not an actual error per se.

I haven't been able to track down exactly how to avoid it as of yet.

So, as long as everything works fine, ignore the message :)
Comment 3 Xavier 2009-10-02 01:32:20 UTC
In my situation, it indeed looks totally harmless. Though pgraph errors seemed to be often associated with more severe problems in the past (as I found in irc log or in the bugtracker), so I was a bit unsure. Good to know I can safely ignore it :)

For some reasons, it seems more likely to trigger after suspend/resume than on a fresh boot. I saw it many times after suspend/resume and only once after a cold boot. But well that probably does not help.

Anyway, everything works fine, no big deal !

I didn't see these for a very long time.
