Xorg crash log

Hello there,

I have a Razer Blade 14" (2016), which has an integrated Intel graphics and a dedicated NVIDIA GTX 1060M GPU to which the HDMI port is physically routed.

I am using the Intel and Nouveau driver to drive 3 screens: the integrated 3200x1800 panel on eDP1, an AOC 25" 2560x1600 screen through a USB-C to HDMI adapter on DP1, and another AOC 25" 2560x1600 screen through the dedicated HDMI port on HDMI-1-2.

I manage to randomly get them to work: most of the time, as soon as I plug in the HDMI cable, the X server crashes in loop. I attached the log, I suspect the total resolution is bigger than what is accepted by the Intel GPU or something, even though in Ubuntu I forced the integrated panel resolution to 2560x1600 to get below 8192x8192, it tries to assign a total surface of 8320x1800.

Is there some way to force the integrated panel to a lower resolution? I am using my laptop primarily at work, and attached to external screens, so I couldn't care less if it was running at 3200x1800 or 2560x1600.

Regardless, there's a crash that needs to be fixed I guess :)

Here's my Xorg.conf (required so that xrandr lists the Nvidia adapter and detects the HDMI screen):


Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "IgnoreABI" "1"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier "Nvidia card"
    Driver "nouveau"
EndSection


I attached the Xorg.0.log of the crash.

Comment 1 Chris Wilson 2018-05-15 07:30:16 UTC
Hmm, that stack trace is very unhelpful (NULL pointer dereference from nowhere, so I presume a NULL function pointer). Could you compile https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel/ with --enable-debug=full and attach the rather verbose output? That should help pinpoint whereabouts it went into neverneverland.
Comment 2 xplodgui 2018-05-15 07:31:27 UTC
I did a few other quick tests: it seems to work a bit more reliably if I boot the machine with just the dedicated HDMI plugged in, then only plugging in the USB-C adapter once the machine is booted.

It however seems unrelated to the resolution change, as it crashed with a lower resolution as well:

Our comments crossed each other :) I'll build that and get back to you asap.
