https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201867 Bug ID: 201867 Summary: Nouveau + discrete GPU (GP104M = GTX 1070 M) Driver Crashes, System freezes, dual screen not working Product: Drivers Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 4.19.4-arch1-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: high Priority: P1 Component: Video(DRI - non Intel) Assignee: drivers_video-dri@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: david.kremer.dk@xxxxxxxxx Regression: No Created attachment 279831 --> https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=279831&action=edit Driver Traceback The problem is proteiform. It is actually well described in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156341 so this could be a duplicate, however, since the driver supposed to actually drive the nvidia GPU is nouveau, I feel obliged to fill a new bug report to address the issue. So basically, there is two issues: 1. when loading the nouveau driver in a tty, you can't launch Xorg afterward, the xinit program waits for a server to be available but that never come. 2. When loading the nouveau driver after the X session has started, the fan finally switches off, but there is first a traceback in dmesg and everything that is reported in bug_id=156341 happens: subsequent calls to lspci/lshw/... are freezing the system definetely without possibility to recover except by doing a hard reboot. So there's definitely something messy about this familiy of Nvidia GPU integrated as a discrete GC on this new laptop generation. Can't give much more info See attachment for the traceback. lspci output: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 8th Gen Core Processor Host Bridge/DRAM Registers (rev 07) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v5/E3-1500 v5/6th Gen Core Processor PCIe Controller (x16) (rev 07) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 630 (Mobile) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP104M [GeForce GTX 1070 Mobile] (rev ff) CPU=Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
