i915 error hangcheck timer elapsed

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Can you please file a bug report for this at bugs.freedesktop.org
against DRI -> DRM (Intel). Then please rehang your machine on a fresh
boot and attach the i915_error_state from debugfs, it should contain a
nice gpu dump with useful information. Also, please provide the
version of your userspace driver stack (mesa, xf86-video-intel,
libdrm) and whether you're using the SNA accel backend.

Thanks, Daniel
