[Bug 1009312] Re: 10de:0426 GPU loads unreliably, possible kernel timeout
Given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during any
development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all. Therefore,
we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request further
testing. This is such a request.
We are approaching release and would like to confirm if this bug is
still present. Please test again with the latest development kernel and
indicate in the bug if this issue still exists or not.
You can update to the latest development kernel by simply running the
following commands in a terminal window:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to
Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from
Incomplete to Fix Released.
Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it.
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)

Title:
10de:0426 GPU loads unreliably, possible kernel timeout
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Reverse upstream kernel commit bisecting revealed a fix via commit
d34883d4e35c0a994e91dd847a82b4c9e0c31d83 by Xiao Guangrong.
WORKAROUND: If I boot my computer from battery power alone without AC,
my GPU & the Ubuntu splash screen load on startup.
I've been running Ubuntu 12.04 for a few weeks now, I really like it,
but from the beginning, I had the issue where the proprietary nvidia
driver installs but fails to load (confirmed from the commandline,
jockey, and the nvidia-dashboard). Over time, I've noticed that
sometimes when I power on, the driver does load and I can enter a full
unity session without problems, but other times, I fall back onto the
VESA driver and a unity 2d session. On a whim, I finally copied logs
from both successful and unsuccessful boots, cut out the times, ran a
diff on them, and noticed a pattern in the kernel messages.
I'm filing this bug after a successful boot so I've also attached
copies of dmesg, Xorg, & jockey logs from an unsuccessful boot. The
first thing I saw in the logs was a timing discrepancy between the two
boots, most of which is due to GPE storms. I've checked other logs and
there's not a clear relation, I've had successful boots with them and
unsuccessful ones without them. I do still wonder if they may be
involved because it seems I'm a little luckier if I turn off and
unplug any peripherals before booting.
But around line 325 in my dmesg logs, at the last step that mentions
my GPU (pci device 0000:01:00.0), there is consistently at most a 6 ms
delay for successful boots, but a 30 ms one for unsuccessful ones.
Also, on all dmesg logs from successful boots, around line 610, the
message "Boot video device" is recorded for the PCI number of my GPU,
but for every fallback, the message never appears. That's why I'm
thinking it's a kernel issue because the earliest mention of a
specific driver module doesn't occur until later in the log.
I'm currently using fully updated versions of nvidia driver 295.49.
