[Bug 1330785] Re: Weston on Nouveau displays black screen on Nouveau due to page flip issues

 

13.04 is now EOL.  I see the following commit has been cc'd to upstream
stable:

mc/nv50-: fix kms pageflip events by reordering irq handling order.

The fix will make it's way into trusty through the normal stable update
process.

Title:
  Weston on Nouveau displays black screen on Nouveau due to page flip
  issues

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Unknown
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi.

  On Ubuntu 13.04, it seems that Weston displays a black screen, and the
  screen stays black, due to page flipping issues in the Nouveau driver
  as reported here https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75761

  It seems that these two patches do apply to 3.13, and fix the pageflip
  issues, and it worked on my NV36 card: (One file I had to slightly
  alter myself)

  I haven't been able to test on newer Nvidia cards because I don't have
  any, but I might be hearing back from others that do have newer caard.

  Is it possible that these can be officially backported  in Ubuntu
  13.04?
