| mamarley | tseliot: I tried nvidia-304 on kernel 4.9 with your patch. It behaves the same way as 340, minus the kerneloopses from sysfs: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23562869/ | 12:00 |
|---|---|---|
| mamarley | With 340, it would also make the system unresponsive, but that doesn't happen with 304 either. | 12:00 |
| tseliot | mamarley: ok, then I need to bisect the kernel to see what breaks things so badly | 12:01 |
| mamarley | Fun fun fun. It looks like it will be easier with 304 since that doesn't hang the computer when the load fails. Would you like to use my laptop to do the testing, since you don't have any systems compatible with 304? | 12:02 |
| tseliot | mamarley: that would certainly help | 12:04 |
| mamarley | tseliot: OK. Would you rather just provide the kernels and have me install them, or should I create a user account for you on the box? | 12:06 |
| tseliot | mamarley: a user account would probably be better | 12:08 |
| mamarley | OK, just a sec, let me adjust my networking configuration… | 12:09 |
| mamarley | tseliot: Will you be making the SSH connections over IPv4 or IPv6? | 12:21 |
| tseliot | mamarley: ipv4, I think | 12:26 |
| chrisccoulson | tseliot, are there any tools for profiling opengl applications on the nvidia drivers that can help investigate performance issues? | 12:30 |
| chrisccoulson | webbrowser-app occasionally performs dreadfully on my laptop and I need to try to figure out why | 12:31 |
| tseliot | chrisccoulson: would something like this work for you? https://developer.nvidia.com/linux-graphics-debugger | 13:57 |
| tseliot | chrisccoulson: you will have to install at least nvidia-370 from the ppa, though | 13:58 |
| chrisccoulson | tseliot, that's probably what I'm after, thanks. I did look at that, but wanted your opinion before I registered an account to download it :) | 14:39 |
| chrisccoulson | I rean nvidia-370 recently actually, but had to revert back again (when I connect my external monitor, compiz hangs in the nvidia driver | 14:40 |
| chrisccoulson | (inside glXDestroyPixmap, I think) | 14:40 |
| chrisccoulson | *ran | 14:40 |
| chrisccoulson | I'll give it another go and report a bug if it happens again | 14:41 |
| tseliot | chrisccoulson: or maybe try the 375 release, although that also seems to come with a regression | 14:42 |
| tseliot | mamarley: nice, 4.9-rc1 already had the change that breaks everything, now on to bisecting. Also, apologies for installing Vim :P | 14:59 |
| mamarley | That's OK. I guess I would have thought it would be installed already. | 14:59 |
| tomreyn | ricotz: the xorg-edgers packages for xenial are not currently working well for me on radeon with RV730. I just downgraded to xenial and those issues are fixed. specifically, i have one game which doesn't handle keyboard + mouse input well with the updated drivers (i described this above). another game became very crashy (i don't have backtraces, though). both is not an issue with xenial's packages. | 19:58 |
| tomreyn | please let me know if you would like any details on this (feel free to instruct me what to do). | 20:00 |
