Title:
Xorg crash 1: nvidia-304.132-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 => Login-Loop
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Ubuntu 16.04.1 (Automatic Upgrade from 14.04)
My Onboard-Graphics (AMD-System, ASRock N68C-S UCC):
Nvidia C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a]
---
In the Past:
=> System and Apps worked well with Auto-Login enabled.
To eliminate Hardware-Errors:
> Memtest
> Boot with Windows-XP
=> No Problems
Problems in short: Linux 4.4.0-47-generic (systemd) and (upstart)
------------------
1. nvidia-304.132-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 => Login-Loop
2. nouveau, Thunderbird, Firefox => System-(Freeze)-Crash with Stripes-Screen
---
I don't know in which Category to sort the Bugs
So this one is for the (Nr.1) Login-Loop (from tty-Terminal)
(I already filed another Bug-Report for the (Nr.2) System-(Freeze)-Crash with
Stripes-Screen)
First Problem startet on 2016-Nov-05: => Login-Loop
---------------------------------------------------
I later found out, that one Day before, the following Auto-Updates had been
installed:
---
libcurl3-gnutls(7.47.0-1ubuntu2.1, 7.47.0-1ubuntu2.2)
nvidia304(304.131-0ubuntu3, 304.132-0ubuntu0.16.04.2)
nvidia-opencl-icd-304 (304.131-0ubuntu3, 304.132-0ubuntu0.16.04.2)
libcurl3(7.47.0-1ubuntu2.1, 7.47.0-1ubuntu2.2)
---
After Shutdown, the next Computer-Start was stuck in a
=> Login-Loop: After entering the correct Password, the Screen turns black
for a Second, then the Login-Form shows up again.
---
I tried a few things, that did not help, like:
> CTRL+F2 => Terminal > sudo ..
> apt autoclean
> apt clean
> apt autoremove
> apt update
> apt upgrade
> apt dist-upgrade
> shutdown -r now
> mv .Xauthority .Xauthority.alt
> shutdown -r now
> service lightdm restart
> shutdown -r now
> apt purge lightdm
> apt install lightdm
> shutdown -r now
> .. Boot into different Linux-Kernel, .. (upstart),
> .. Boot into Recovery-Mode > .. > Repair > ..
> .. I also tried to install other nvidia-drivers, which, sadly, i did not
document.
=> Did NOT work
---
Only Thing that helped was:
---------------------------
> sudo apt purge nvidia-*
> sudo shutdown -r now
=> (nouveau-Driver was automatically installed)
=> Auto-Login to Desktop
But then there was a second Problem:
------------------------------------
When > starting Thunderbird, mostly at once, sometimes after > opening some
E-Mail-Windows, another Error occurred:
=> System freeze for 3 Seconds, then Screen turned to Stripes-Wallpaper =>
Total (Freeze-)Crash
--
Later, even with DISabled Hardware-Acceleration, starting both, Firefox and
Thunderbird led to the System-Crash.
(Sometimes, the System with nouveau booted and auto-logined into a Black
Screen with a Mouse-Pointer. Nevertheless the System seemed to work and could
be rebooted normally.)
---
> CTRL+ALT+F2 => did NOT work
> Magic Sys-Request (SysRQ): (ALT+PRINT)+ REISUB => did NOT work
> ping to IP => unreachable
---
After cold Reboot, i tried again to switch back from nouveau- to
nvidia-Drivers
> Additional Drivers > Nvidia-304.132
=> Login-Loop
---
> sudo apt purge nvidia-*
> sudo apt install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
=> Auto-Login
> Firefox / Thunderbird => System-(Freeze)-Crash with Stripes-Screen
---
> .. removed and tried to install the old driver (I probably did wrong):
> sudo apt purge nvidia-*
> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
> sudo apt update
> sudo apt install nvidia-current=304.131-0ubuntu3
=> Login-Loop
---
> sudo apt purge nvidia-*
> Additional Drivers > nouveau
> Boot > Grub-2 > "Erweiterte Optionen für Ubuntu" > "Ubuntu, mit Linux
4.4.0-47-generic" (NO Option=SYSTEMD?)
=> Auto-Login
> Firefox / Thunderbird => System-(Freeze)-Crash with Stripes-Screen
------------------------
What seemed to help was:
------------------------
> Boot > Grub-2 > "Erweiterte Optionen für Ubuntu" > "Ubuntu, mit Linux
4.4.0-47-generic (upstart)" (UPSTART!)
=> Auto-Login
> Firefox / Thunderbird => seem to work stable!
=> After half an Hour of testing:
> open Firefox (Hardware-Acceleration disabled)
=> System-(Freeze)-Crash with Stripes-Screen
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Because this is far more stable:
Changed Standard-Boot in Grub-2 to UpStart instead of SystemD
---
> Terminal >
sudo apt install upstart-sysv
su
sudo shutdown -r now
---
For Roll-Back:
> Terminal >
sudo apt install systemd-sysv
sudo update-initramfs -u
sudo shutdown -r now
--------------------------------------
Sorry, don't know, what to try next ..
