[Nouveau] [Bug 32645] New: NV20 GF 3 Ti 200, displays blank screen to DVI
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32645 Summary: NV20 GF 3 Ti 200, displays blank screen to DVI Product: xorg Version: git Platform: x86 (IA32) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Driver/nouveau AssignedTo: nouveau at lists.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: BryanQuigley at Ubuntu.com QAContact: xorg-team at lists.x.org I have a monitor that supports both DVI and VGA. The VGA seems to work fine (aside from the fact that at startup it sometimes powers down for a second). The DVI on the other hand doesn't work as soon as we start booting (BIOS and GRUB work). I am attaching the kern and Xorg log for both when using VGA and when using DVI. I am using the latest Xorg Edgers PPA in Ubuntu, built from git 3 days ago. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.

Can you catch it in a screenshot? Do you see anything wrong in the accelerated framebuffer console?

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32645 --- Comment #30 from Bryan Quigley <BryanQuigley at Ubuntu.com> 2011-01-21 22:09:18 PST --- It does, the "Small artifacts" go away. The flickering does not, but does seem to be slightly reduced. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.

Thanks!OK, that means that something's repeatedly polling the status of your VGA connector. Your card has only one CRTC and there's no way to do that without disrupting the DVI-D output. That's not our bug, whatever is polling your VGA connector should be listening to RandR events instead. By the way, do you need any of the nv20_crtc_lwm patches to get rid of the bandwidth artifacts, or are the "perflvl" kernel options enough? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.

What is that actually doing?"perflvl" tells the driver to set a performance level different to the BIOS defaults (BIOSes usually leave the GPU in some kind of low power consumption mode), in your case that just means 400MHz instead of 279MHz as memory clock. Right now we leave the clocks set by the BIOS untouched because our PM code isn't considered stable yet, that will probably change at some point, until then you'll have to keep these module options in your command line to avoid the corruption you've seen. I've pushed the patch that fixed your original problem to the nouveau kernel tree, so I'm marking this as fixed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
