I don't know if anybody is following my story here but I noticed an xorg-edgers kernel update from 3.5.0.3.3 to 3.5.0.4.4 today so I thought I would give it a test running Unity. Note, as my previous comment I can run kernel 3.2 forever without issue. So I upgraded and rebooted to 3.5.0.4.4 and I still see PFIFO_CACHE_ERROR nouveau errors but this time my system does not lock up. I don't see any UI problems. Here are the dmesg logs:
[ 6392.463172] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_CACHE_ERROR - Ch 4/0 Mthd 0x0060 Data 0x8000000f [ 6610.102638] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_CACHE_ERROR - Ch 4/0 Mthd 0x0060 Data 0x8000000f [ 6625.011826] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_CACHE_ERROR - Ch 4/0 Mthd 0x0060 Data 0x8000000f So kernel 3.5.0.4.4 has improved things, but there still seems a problem there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1012916 Title: [nouveau] 12.04 Unity 3d hard freezes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/1012916/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
