all log in one file...

Hello,

I have this All-In-One machine : 
https://www.dell.com/uk/business/p/vostro-360/pd

The hardware seems to be Synergy card :
lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 0df5 (rev a1)

I blacklist the "nouveau" driver in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

When i start in nomodeset i have an X resolution in 1280*1024 while the hardware supports 1920*1080

When i start without nomodeset, i can see the boot log and the desktop in very short flash image... this flash have cycle between 3 to 20 second... but it seams not regular...


Linux distribution : Ubuntu precise (12.04)
Version :
xserver-xorg-core                      2:1.10.4-1ubuntu6 
linux-image-3.2.0-8-generic            3.2.0-8.14

Chipset : i915
uname -m : x86_64
uname -r : 3.2.0-8-generic

On my hardware the bug are 100% reproducible
I have not edit the xorg.conf for any modification
I can't give you an xrandr --verbose because iam connected by ssh when i boot whith "drm.debug=0x06", or if you whant one whith nomdeset... it's possible...


I also try this kernel here :

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/keithp/linux.git
cd linux
git checkout -t origin/drm-intel-fixes
complil' and boot whith this one...
No more result.

Iam on irc chan #intel-gfx whith nick "ZyTer" if you whant to tell me some test, or issue...

In the file attachement i put in first :

No more result with this one...
Comment 5 Jesse Barnes 2012-04-16 14:03:24 UTC
Does this still happen in drm-intel-next?  An eDP fix from Daniel seems to have fixed a lot of our "blank screen" issues.
Comment 6 olivier.sauzet 2012-04-17 03:06:13 UTC
I try this kernel version : http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.4-rc3-precise/  with no more result.

Today i try to test :
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/keithp/linux.git
cd linux
git checkout -t origin/drm-intel-fixes
complil' 

and boot whith this one...
Comment 7 Daniel Vetter 2012-04-17 03:53:48 UTC
Pleas use this the git tree at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm-intel/ and try the drm-intel-next-queued branch.

Comment 12 Jesse Barnes 2012-04-18 10:11:52 UTC
Going out on a limb and associating these two bugs.

Can one of you get the output from /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_gem_interrupt?  You may need to capture it a few times to get the output I'm looking for, specifically what the "South Display Interrupt identity" field is when the hotplug occurs.  I'm guessing bit 23, 22, or 21 is stuck on, but it could be one of the others.

After you've gathered that, you could try this patch, which ought to shut up your hotplug interrupts at least:

Comment 16 olivier.sauzet 2012-04-18 15:23:08 UTC
Whith this patch its much better :

- i can see the desktop in 1920*1080 (whith no option : not nomodeset in kernel boot)

but...

the scren turn black every 1 or two second..., and some times "in an all black mode" and do not retrun

On IRC, ickle_ and jbarnes  tell me to put :
drm_kms_helper.poll=0 in the kernel boot line.

After boot with that option, its better, the screen seams to be OK


but...

the screen flash in "in an all black mode" sometime :
- on some startup i do not see the desktop at all
- on some startup i see the desktop, can use it, but some minutes after, it turn in "all black mode"... 
- sometimes i can use it with no problem...
Comment 17 olivier.sauzet 2012-04-19 04:54:28 UTC
It work like Bug 42278 :  without patch on an ubuntu kernel : 3.3.0-030300-generic-pae

But its the same behavior than before :
sometime black screnn randomly

I try to "stress" by playing video HD, but its pretty mellow , if you have a better method...
Comment 18 Jesse Barnes 2012-04-19 07:54:24 UTC
Since output detection seems to be the cause of the black screen, I'd expect you to see it whenever some app polls the output configuration.  The media player or other desktop apps may do that periodically (every GNOME app used to do it at app startup time).
