xorg log for the time xorg get's stuck (10.60 KB, application/octet-stream)

Description Ilkka Tengvall 2011-09-14 09:50:42 UTC
Description of problem:

My f15 laptop GUI hangs once in a while, likely related to wlan activity. Typically it hangs while changing desktops on gnome-shell by pressing ctrl-alt-<arrow keys>. Also it gets stuck often (can't even access console) with blank window while entering sleep or coming back from there. They might be separate cases, but I'm not sure.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

$ rpm -q gnome-shell fedora-release xorg-x11-drv-intel  kernel
gnome-shell-3.0.2-4.fc15.i686
fedora-release-15-3.noarch
xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.15.0-5.fc15.i686
kernel-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.i686



How reproducible:

Seemingly randomly, but requires that wlan is turned on. Closing the laptop lid to go to sleep hangs it (or coming back by openening it). Also sometimes sliding between the desktops.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. make sure wlan is enabled, can be using ethernet anyway
2. ctrl-alt-<arrow down> in gnome-shell

  
Actual results:

screen get's stuck at the transition effect, and this is found from logs:

---------------------------------

/var/log/Xorg.0.log is unfortunately gone, but it has something like "(EE) no screen found"



Expected results:

not to hang


Additional info:

I will try to get better logs after this hits me again, please guide what you need to help solve this. This is a bitch, since it makes it a misery to try to do work on the laptop.

This started happening about half a year ago, before that the fedora worked great on the laptop for about year and a half.

Comment 2 Ilkka Tengvall 2011-10-27 07:33:42 UTC
now after I had disabled wlan, and removed module dell_wmi, which both I suspected have effect on this, it crashed again. So neither wlan or dell_wmi has effect on this.

It seems X somehow stops working, I have X.org log now. One thing to mention is that the machine was asleep half an hour before this happened. But again, it happened in gnome-shell, doing fast <ctrl>+<alt>+<down>,<ctrl>+<alt>+<down>,<ctrl>+<alt>+<down>, <ctrl>+<alt>+<up>.

It always get's stuck in middle of gnome shell transition effect. I do the sequence due I have gnome-terminal open in workspace 1, then try moving to workspace 3 having web browser open, but accidentally go one worspace too far and try going back one workspace. Thus the sequence.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 14:45:57 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
