Package: bumblebee-nvidia Version: 3.2.1-16 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, My system is a Thinkpad T440p, with both an Intel and an NVIDIA Optimus cards. On Wednesday, upgrading both the Mesa libraries and the NVIDIA driver broke the desktop ---i.e., after reboot, the GDM target never showed up due to a Clutter error. Synaptic's history shows the following as installed/upgraded/removed on that day: -------------------------------------------------------------------- Commit Log for Wed Nov 1 08:23:33 2017 Removed the following packages: libegl1-glvnd-nvidia libegl1-mesa-dev libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libgtk-3-dev primus primus-libs-ia32:i386 primus-libs:i386 Upgraded the following packages: debconf (1.5.63) to 1.5.64 debconf-i18n (1.5.63) to 1.5.64 eog-plugin-map (3.25.92-1) to 3.26.1-1 epiphany-browser (3.24.3-1) to 3.26.1-1 epiphany-browser-data (3.24.3-1) to 3.26.1-1 giada (0.14.1~dfsg1-1) to 0.14.3~dfsg1-1 gir1.2-javascriptcoregtk-4.0 (2.16.6-1) to 2.18.1-1 gir1.2-webkit2-4.0 (2.16.6-1) to 2.18.1-1 gnome-maps (3.25.91-1) to 3.26.1-1 gnome-session (3.24.1-2) to 3.26.1-1 gnome-session-bin (3.24.1-2) to 3.26.1-1 gnome-session-common (3.24.1-2) to 3.26.1-1 gnome-software (3.22.5-1) to 3.26.1-2 gnome-software-common (3.22.5-1) to 3.26.1-2 gnome-software-plugin-flatpak (3.22.5-1) to 3.26.1-2 gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad (1.12.2-1+b1) to 1.12.3-2 libegl-nvidia0 (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libegl1-mesa (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libgbm1 (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libgl1-glvnd-nvidia-glx (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libgl1-mesa-dri (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libgl1-mesa-glx (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libgl1-nvidia-glvnd-glx (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libglapi-mesa (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libglapi-mesa:i386 (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libgles-nvidia1 (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libgles-nvidia2 (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libgles1-glvnd-nvidia (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libgles1-nvidia (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libgles2-glvnd-nvidia (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libgles2-mesa (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libgles2-nvidia (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libglx-nvidia0 (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libglx0-glvnd-nvidia (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 (1.12.2-1+b1) to 1.12.3-2 libharfbuzz-dev (1.5.1-1) to 1.6.2-1 libharfbuzz-gobject0 (1.5.1-1) to 1.6.2-1 libharfbuzz-icu0 (1.5.1-1) to 1.6.2-1 libharfbuzz0b (1.5.1-1) to 1.6.2-1 libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18 (2.16.6-1) to 2.18.1-1 libnetcdf-c++4 (4.2-7) to 4.2-7+b1 libnvidia-cfg1 (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libnvidia-eglcore (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libnvidia-glcore (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libnvidia-ml1 (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 libosmesa6 (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libwayland-egl1-mesa (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 (2.16.6-1) to 2.18.1-1 libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37-gtk2 (2.16.6-1) to 2.18.1-1 libxatracker2 (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 mesa-vdpau-drivers (13.0.6-1+b2) to 17.2.3-1 netcdf-bin (1:4.4.1.1-2) to 1:4.5.0-1 nvidia-alternative (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 nvidia-driver (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 nvidia-driver-bin (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 nvidia-driver-libs (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 nvidia-egl-icd (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 nvidia-kernel-support (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 nvidia-smi (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 nvidia-vdpau-driver (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 nvidia-vulkan-icd (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 primus-libs (0~20150328-4) to 0~20150328-5 xserver-xorg-video-nvidia (375.82-5) to 375.82-7 xwayland (2:1.19.3-2) to 2:1.19.5-1 Installed the following packages: gir1.2-harfbuzz-0.0 (1.6.2-1) libegl1 (0.2.999+git20170802-5) libfwupd2 (1.0.0-4) libglvnd-core-dev (0.2.999+git20170802-5) libglvnd0:i386 (0.2.999+git20170802-5) libglx-mesa0 (17.2.3-1) libglx-mesa0:i386 (17.2.3-1) libllvm5.0 (1:5.0~+rc2-1) libllvm5.0:i386 (1:5.0~+rc2-1) libnetcdf13 (1:4.5.0-1) librtmidi4 (3.0.0~ds1-2) libxcb-xfixes0:i386 (1.12-1) python3-debconf (1.5.64) -------------------------------------------------------------------- In order to solved the issue, I uninstalled all the NVIDIA-related packages, reinstalled GDM and blacklisted nouveau. After that, I tried installing bumblebee-nvidia again, which effectively broke the system once again. So it seems the bumblebee-nvidia package is not compatible with the newest mesa and NVIDIA drivers. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (200, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.13.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages bumblebee-nvidia depends on: pn bumblebee <none> ii glx-alternative-nvidia 0.8.0 pn nvidia-driver | nvidia-legacy-340xx-driver | nvidia-legacy-304xx-dr <none> bumblebee-nvidia recommends no packages. bumblebee-nvidia suggests no packages.
