Not sure if this a sensible place to report this (please tell me where to report if so).
I'm using Ubuntu: 16.04.5 Kernel: 4.15.0-36-generic X Server: xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04:amd64/xenial-updates 1:7.7+16ubuntu3~16.04.1 Nvidia: nvidia-390:amd64/xenial 390.87-0ubuntu0~gpu16.04.1 I have two issues which seem to be related to this combination of driver and card: 1) Black screen after grub and before X starts and a black screen on vt1 where I should have a getty. I have 'nomodeset' on my kernel commandline but this doesn't seem to help. 2) If Chromium (or less often anything which electron) has its window rolled up (and therefore using offscreen rendering) when the card goes through power saving then its rendering process crashes. If I start it from a terminal I get the below errors in the terminal. [30860:30860:1002/161014.445614:ERROR:gles2_cmd_decoder.cc(16363)] Offscreen context lost via ARB/EXT_robustness. Reset status = GL_GUILTY_CONTEXT_RESET_KHR [30860:30860:1002/161014.445844:ERROR:gles2_cmd_decoder.cc(5680)] Error: 5 for Command kCopySubTextureCHROMIUM [30860:30860:1002/161014.445879:ERROR:gpu_channel_manager.cc(190)] Exiting GPU process because some drivers cannot recover from problems. Killed Turning off hardward acceleration in chromium has mitigated the problem for the time being but it's not ideal. -p -- Paul Gotch -------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers-testers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers-testers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
