apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected natty ubuntu
** Description changed: Unity/Xserver crashes in the following situation: - switch to integrated graphics in bios (intel) - boot - gdm autologin into unity --> everything works fine - shutdown - switch to ATI graphics card in bios (ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3650) - place laptop in docking station with second monitor connected - boot - gdm autologin into unity And then the only wallpaper is displayed, but no unity or anything else. Then repeatingly every 3 or 4 seconds the screen gets black and the wallpaper is displayed again. Occasionally the XServer freezes (laptop display turns black and looks like it "melts"). Switching to a console and running "service gdm restart" as root brings up unity without further issues then. I've placed a similar comment on issue #772513. The issue is still there for me on a fully updated Ubuntu 11.04. Attached is the output of dmesg before restarting gdm. Maybe the line [ 60.180068] radeon 0000:01:00.0: GPU lockup CP stall for more than 10000msec is of interested as it was written on console while it happened. Please let me know if you need additional information. + --- + Architecture: amd64 + CompizPlugins: + Error: command ['gconftool-2', '--get', '/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins'] failed with exit code -6: ** + GLib-GIO:ERROR:/build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./gio/gdbusconnection.c:2279:initable_init: assertion failed: (connection->initialization_error == NULL) + DistUpgraded: Fresh install + DistroCodename: natty + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 + DistroVariant: ubuntu + GconfCompiz: + Error: command ['gconftool-2', '-R', '/apps/compiz-1'] failed with exit code -6: ** + GLib-GIO:ERROR:/build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./gio/gdbusconnection.c:2279:initable_init: assertion failed: (connection->initialization_error == NULL) + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Alpha amd64 (20110201.2) + InstallationMedia_: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Alpha amd64 (20110201.2) + InstallationMedia__: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Alpha amd64 (20110201.2) + Package: unity 3.8.16-0ubuntu1~natty1 + PackageArchitecture: amd64 + ProcEnviron: + LANGUAGE=de_DE:de:en_GB:en + LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-11.47-generic 2.6.38.8 + ProcVersionSignature_: Ubuntu 2.6.38-11.47-generic 2.6.38.8 + ProcVersionSignature__: Ubuntu 2.6.38-11.47-generic 2.6.38.8 + Tags: natty natty natty ubuntu + Uname: Linux 2.6.38-11-generic x86_64 + UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) + UserGroups: + + version.compiz: compiz 1:0.9.4+bzr20110606-0ubuntu1~natty2 + version.ia32-libs: ia32-libs 20090808ubuntu13 + version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.23-1ubuntu6 + version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 7.10.2-0ubuntu2 + version.libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental: libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental N/A + version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx 7.10.2-0ubuntu2 + version.xserver-xorg: xserver-xorg 1:7.6+4ubuntu3.1 + version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:6.14.0-0ubuntu4.1 + version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.14.0-4ubuntu7.1 + version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:0.0.16+git20110107+b795ca6e-0ubuntu7 ** Attachment added: "Dependencies.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810283/+attachment/2222575/+files/Dependencies.txt ** Description changed: Unity/Xserver crashes in the following situation: - switch to integrated graphics in bios (intel) - boot - gdm autologin into unity --> everything works fine - shutdown - switch to ATI graphics card in bios (ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3650) - place laptop in docking station with second monitor connected - boot - gdm autologin into unity And then the only wallpaper is displayed, but no unity or anything else.
