[Bug 1183089] Re: xorg freezes on macbook air unplugging thunderbolt display

 

Konstantin Nazarov, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc7

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  xorg freezes on macbook air unplugging thunderbolt display

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Xorg hangs on macbook air mid 2012 when the external thunderbolt display is being unplugged.
  Also, when I try to boot without the external display, the OS hangs immediately on the kernel boot splash.

  If I then plug the display in again,  the OS unfreezes and continues
  to run just fine.

  The lockup is hard, so machine becomes unaccessible via the network.

  Started to happen after a month or so of running Ubuntu. OSX is not susceptible to any of the mentioned problems.
  Clearing NVRAM and applying latest firmware updates doesn't help.

  This is what I see in dmesg:

  Looks like some modesetting bug.

  The same happens on fresh installations of both 12.10 and 13.04 and
  even when I boot from live CD/USB.
