[Bug 1531824] Re: Xorg freeze

 

Okay, v4.3-wily boots and does not exhibit the original bug. Same for
v4.1-wily.

Looks like there's another bug here with v4.4-wily as I mentioned, not
sure if another bug should be raised for that?

I also think I have a test that I can perform to reproduce the fault on-
demand - just keep suspending and resuming a few times and the screen
soon locks up. This didn't happen with v4.1 or v4.3. If this holds true
it might be practical to bisect, otherwise probably not.

I was going to bisect the kernel archives to find where the problem
started, but I figure I should check with you first.

Please advise.

Ta.

Title:
  Xorg freeze

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Symptoms:

  * Video is frozen.

  Observations:

  * Mouse moves normally.
  * There is no hard-disc activity.
  * Once  minute or so the video will respond like it's doing so a frame at a time.
  * Pressing CTRL+ALT+F6 and then waiting a minute or so puts you into a terminal.
  * Text terminals work normally without any problems.
  * Pressing ALT+F7 from a text terminal puts you into either black frozen screen or a frozen graphical display.
  * Restarting LightDM doesn't resolve the problem, it shows the login screen and freezes.

  When does it occur:

  * More often than not on or immediately after resume from suspend.
  * Occasionally, but not very often, during normal use.
  * It occurs several times a week, usually after several hours of suspend.

  It started a few months ago.
