Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-shell-3.32.1-1.fc30.x86_64 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.execute the below command journalctl -f 2.Just move cursor or drop a video file to a running SMPlayer instance 3.Watch the output of 'journalctl -f' when Gnome desktop get frozen Actual results: Gnome desktop get frozen Expected results: Gnome works smoothly Additional info: Iām using Nvidia driver. # rpm -qa | grep nvidia kmod-nvidia-5.0.9-301.fc30.x86_64-418.56-2.fc30.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-418.56-1.fc30.i686 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda-libs-418.56-1.fc30.x86_64 kmod-nvidia-5.0.10-300.fc30.x86_64-418.56-2.fc30.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-418.56-1.fc30.x86_64 kmod-nvidia-418.56-2.fc30.x86_64 nvidia-settings-418.56-1.fc30.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-kmodsrc-418.56-1.fc30.x86_64 akmod-nvidia-418.56-2.fc30.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-418.56-1.fc30.x86_64
I find that it get frozen for exactly 5 seconds before working normally. It's amazing. Maybe Nvidia driver is the root cause in this case.
Hi Bugzilla :-) Here is a bit more info for you: 1) In Fedora 29, no issues 2) Upgraded to Fedora 30 ---- issues begins as described by Charles 3) Desktop GUI/Interface/Environment that it seems to effect is Gnome 3.32 4) Random/Intermittently, the entire computer stalls for about 5 seconds, 100% CPU across all threads for the entire duration -- at the instant that control is regained, there is an error in /var/log/messages May 3 11:49:42 msi /usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[19743]: nvLock: client timed out, taking the lock 5) all same nvidia drivers as Charles 6) Original Linux kernel command line options when issue observed/experienced -- kernelopts=root=UUID=fa49cb7d-7285-46d8-add2-3e2b691c1405 ro nouveau.modeset=0 rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau nvidia-drm.modeset=1 resume=/dev/mapper/fedora-swap rd.lvm.lv=fedora/swap rhgb 7) Linux kernel command line options when issue seems to be reolved -- kernelopts=root=UUID=fa49cb7d-7285-46d8-add2-3e2b691c1405 ro nouveau.modeset=0 rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau i915.modeset=1 nvidia-drm.modeset=0 resume=/dev/mapper/fedora-swap rd.lvm.lv=fedora/swap rhgb My conclusions: Either the Nvidia DRM kernel module is not quite ready for prime time OR Gnome 3.32 is using the driver incorrectly. -- and I am leaning more to the "Gnome 3.32" because in Gnome 3.31 I didn't have any observable issues with nvidia-drm.modeset=1 EIner
Hi Einer, As you said, I resole this issue by setting nouveau.modeset=0 to disable Nvidia DRM. This comment help me: https://fedoramagazine.org/upgrading-fedora-29-to-fedora-30/#comment-484974
Hi Einer, But I still don't know you guys how to trace this issue back to Nvidia DRM. I'm just very very very curious.
