[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1580114] Re: [i915_bpo] Update i915 backport driver

2016-05-18 Thread Matthew Willson
Nice one, thanks. Is this released yet? I'll give it a try when it is and report back. Hopefully it should fix my issues here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1568865 which went away with a 4.6.0-rc7 kernel. Incidentally 4.6.0 is now released and it seems like there's a few mo

2016-05-09 Thread Matthew Willson
Any further backports would be gratefully received -- it looks like there's been a fair number of i915 and skylake-related commits recently. In particular I've had a bunch of display issues with external screens with 16.04 on a Dell Precision 5510 (Skylake chipset), which are fixed after installin

I've now tried this with 4.6.0-rc7. * I no longer see the "CPU pipe B FIFO underrun" errors in syslog, although I do still see the stack traces like in #12 on hotplugging displays. * The "laptop screen goes black when mouse moves into it" issue is gone! It looks like there are quite a few i915-r

@shinyblue (and others) would you be able to try the 4.6.0-rc6 kernel? It looks like some new commits relating to i915 have been made since 4.6.0-rc4: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/log/?id=refs/tags/v4.6-rc6&ofs=300 drm/i915: Use fw_domains_put_with_fifo() on HSW

I had this issue too with a new Dell Precision 5510 and 16.04 (also Skylake). I found setting i915_bpo.preliminary_hw_support=1 seems to help -- any chance that works for you too? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in

FWIW I still have this issue without Unity and Compiz running, so I don't think it has anything to do with those. I don't see any relevant logging from X even after starting it with -logverbose 6. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscrib

Assuming this is what's responsible for the issue, to me this is quite a major bug as it prevents use of external display together with the laptop screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launch

I am also seeing this, with a fresh install of 16.04 on a new Dell Precision 5510 (also Skylake, similar to the XPS 15 9550). When I plug in an external monitor I see this error in syslog: May 4 12:13:01 cherry kernel: [ 1362.648527] [ cut here ] May 4 12:13:01 cherry k
