** Summary changed: - intel gm965 is not supported by ubuntu as in graphics acceleration + intel gm965 freezes with 3d applications
** Description changed: - Graphics Accelerator dosent work no matter what you did... + On some Intel GM965 machines, running OpenGL applications (eg. Blender, + Second Life, the Endgame screensaver, Scorched3D) can crash the system. + + Symptoms: Colours go funny, then screen flashes between off and black with 'please wait' cursor about 10 times, then stops; does not respond to Ctrl+Alt+F1 or Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, but does reboot on Alt+SysRq+b. Logs the line + Error in I830WaitLpRing(), timeout for 2 seconds + in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old - Unfortunately it all goes back to intel and ubuntu to fix this... + (Please note that this is not the only X crash bug; if you cannot find + an exact match for your symptoms then please file a new bug.) + + Workaround: Adding + Option "DRI" "false" + to the graphics controller Device section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf avoids this bug, but may drastically reduce performance. + + This bug has been reported upstream and you can follow the link to xorg bugzilla, but as of 29.12.07 no developer managed to reproduce this bug (how to trigger it seems to be hardware dependent, with some i965s not appearing to have it at all) so it will be very hard to fix unless that changes + if you are suffering from this bug please go to xorg bugzilla and report your hardware specifics. + also please edit this bug description and add the name and exact model of your affected laptop. + + list of affected laptops: + Acer Travelmate 6292 + Asus S62E Santa Rosa 965 + dell D830 + Dell 630 + Dell Inspiron 1420n + Dell Inspiron 1525 (new) + Dell Latitude D630 + Dell Latitude D830 + Dell XPS M1330 + HP Compac 6510b + HP Compaq 6710b + Thinkpad T61 + Thinkpad X61 Tablet + Thinkpad X61s + Apple Macbook (3,1/Santa Rosa) + Acer Aspire 5315-052G12Mi + Lenovo 3000 N200 (TY2BBGE) + Sony vaio CR160 + + also if you have one of these laptops and are not affected please tell + us! -- intel gm965 freezes with 3d applications https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120834 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
