(These are copied from the Launchpad bug - I figure they would be of use here.) I did a dist-upgrade of my machine, as well as installing the latest Kernel you linked and have some interesting results: 1) I now need the 'noapic' flag in my boot options again. Is this the same bug, or a different issue? I have another bug open about this already: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/903558 2) The 'xrandr --output LVDS1 --off; xrandr --output LVDS1 --auto' command succeeds in turning on the other monitor some times. Compiz keeps crashing through, but it does switch on occasionally. 3) I did some testing with the Display settings and my Laptop monitor works on 1360x768 and smaller, but the two larger resolutions, 1440x900 and 1600x900 don't work. -- I just did an upgrade and have discovered that if I boot into 12.04 with a second monitor, go into the Display Settings, ensure my laptop monitor is enabled with the right reso (1600x900), clicking 'Apply' switches on the monitor! But it appears it will only switch on when the external is enabled too, so I can't make it happen without an external monitor there and activated. So I guess the question is, why can't it start up the monitor on boot? Hm, that's another report saying that plugging in a 2nd monitor and switching it on on snb machine magically fixes things ... A few things: Can you upgrade your kernel to the latest drm-intel-fixes branch from Keith's git: https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/keithp/linux.git;a=summary Also can you install intel-gpu-tools at least v1.1, hopefully ubuntu has it. Otherwise grab the latest git from: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/intel-gpu-tools/ Then run tools/intel_reg_dumper for both a working configuration (i.e. 2 monitors switched on) and a non-working configuration and attach the output to the bug. Please also attach the xrandr output so we know exactly what output configuration the register dump is coming from. The noapic issue is likely unrelated to your gpu woes. > Also can you install intel-gpu-tools at least v1.1, hopefully ubuntu has it. I've updated the intel-gpu-tools package in Ubuntu to v1.1. You should be able to install or upgrade it through apt normally. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-gpu-tools I also asked the kernel team to start making builds of the drm-intel-fixes (instead of drm-intel-next-proposed, which seems to have stagnated lately.) URL for that kernel PPA: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-intel-fixes/ I have just upgraded my Kernel and the primary laptop monitor now loads up on boot without any issues! I still need to test the 'noapic' flag to see if it has been fixed too, but the important thing is, I can now use my laptop as a laptop :) Do you still want all that debugging information, or should I not worry since it's now working? The version I upgraded to is: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-intel-fixes/2012-01-29-precise/ linux-headers-3.3.0-994-generic_3.3.0-994.201201290428_amd64.deb 29-Jan-2012 09:37 943K linux-headers-3.3.0-994_3.3.0-994.201201290428_all.deb 29-Jan-2012 09:29 11M linux-image-3.3.0-994-generic_3.3.0-994.201201290428_amd64.deb 29-Jan-2012 09:37 36M I've tested and I still need the 'noapic' flag to successfully boot. Can someone point me in the right direction to get this one fixed? I will update my launchpad bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/903558) with fresh details regarding this issue - but I don't know if it's in the right place to be noticed. Nope, no more debug information needed. We've fixed quite a few bugs for snb lately and luckily yours was among them! Closing resolved+fixed. No activity on ~4 years. |
