Thanks everyone for the recent testing. In comparing everyone's logs the following observations can be drawn:
1. The assertions made in comment #11 are incorrect. We are not seeing EAGAIN (error code 11) but apparently EACCES (error code 13). 2. The patch I prepared is suited for handling EAGAIN. The reason it works for EACCES as well is simply because it's throwing some sleep in there. We already know from comment #5 that tossing in some sleep before X starts works around the problem, so that isn't surprising. Still, this patch is probably a better workaround since it only comes into play when the bug has actually happened; on non-bugged boots you'll get a faster non-sleepy startup. For this reason, I'll proceed with polishing up the patch and add it to the archive. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982889 Title: X trying to start before plymouth has finished using the drm driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdrm/+bug/982889/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
