GT630M: Optirun seems to run but programs don't open #181

Closed zuiop closed 12 years ago

Ubuntu (Xubuntu) 12.04 Kernel: 3.2.0-25-generic #40-Ubuntu SMP Wed May 23 20:30:51 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Bumblebee version: 3.0

baseboard-manufacturer : MEDION baseboard-product-name : P7624
system-manufacturer : MEDION system-product-name : P7624
bios-vendor : American Megatrends Inc. bios-version : 0.49 bios-release-date : 10/31/2011

Graphics card: Nvidia Geforce GT 630M

I have installed bumblebee following the instructions. When I try to run a program with optirun the CPU load goes up to about 50%, the fan starts working but the program doesn't start (or at least I can't see it, no window has opened).

I have already tried to change DFP to CRT in /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia but that didn't work so I changed it back.

The Xorg.8.log ends with this error: (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): WAIT: (E, 0, 0x857d)

I'm going to send the bumblebee-bugreport file to bumblebee@lists.launchpad.net

Thank you!

Card not really supported by nVidia if I remember quite well, or it's either an other problem, which starts to become the main one with Bumblebee currently.

Indeed, the number of users reporting "(EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): WAIT: (E, 0, 0x857d)" is increasing a lot.

Try installing a more recent nvidia driver:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

302.17 is installed now.

No difference, unfortunately...

Even after rebooting? Do you get the same error? Try changing DFP to CRT in /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia

zuiop commented 12 years ago

Yes, I get the same error in the Xorg.8.log: (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): WAIT: (E, 0, 0x857d)

I have already tried changing DFP to CRT with the old driver. I've tried it again now but trying to run optirun I get the same error as with the old driver:

[ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: XORG NVIDIA(0): Failed to assign any connected display devices to X screen 0

[ERROR]Aborting because fallback start is disabled.

This should be fixed by #199.
