Weird Loop When in Hybrid Graphics mode with multiple monitors

jhaygood86 commented 2 years ago

What Happened

When the NVIDIA PRIME Profile is set to On Demand (Intel GPU primary + NVIDIA GPU secondary) on my Alienware m15, the greeter enters a loop where it flashes the login screen for about 1-2 seconds and immediately goes back to showing the Alienware logo. This goes in a loop that goes onto ad nauseum. This only happens when the greeter is launched with 1 or more (tested with both a monitor on just the HDMI port as well as a monitor on both the HDMI and mini-DP port) external monitors attached.

Expected Behavior

Greeter lets you login and functions

Steps to Reproduce

Start a comparable system (presumably any laptop with NVIDIA hybrid graphics, but may or may not be more specific than that) with multiple monitors attached with the PRIME profile set to "On demand"
Loop begins once the Greeter starts

Workaround

This doesn't happen when the PRIME Profile is set to "Performance" (NVIDIA GPU Only). It also doesn't happen with just the laptop's internal display is active

Platform Information

elementary OS 6.0 Odin (fully up to date) Alienware m15 laptop NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Mobile laptop using NVIDIA 470 drivers Intel UHD Graphics 630 Mobile Multiple monitors: laptop display, Dell 27" monitor attached via HDMI, Dell 24" monitor attached via mini Display-Port

I have exactly the same problem, however I'm on desktop with nvidia gpu. Intel integrated gpu is disabled in bios. I'm able to workaround it by repetadly pressing ctrl+alt+f1/2/3 to force change to a different VT, and then ctrl+alt+f7 to force change to VT7 where greeter starts. Eventually greeter starts normally and I can login.

System: elementary OS 6.0 Odin Greeter: 6.0.1+r1280+elementary1+pkg84~ubuntu6.1 Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 with 470.74 drivers Two monitors (both connected to nvidia gpu)

Huh, I just got this problem on a second computer, which has displays connected both to intel igpu and to nvidia gpu. Nvidia gpu was using nouveau drivers. This gpu is used only for passthrough and as soon as I grabbed it with vfio-pci on boot (which prevented using the gpu in any way other than pci passthrough) the issue stopped appearing.

marmeladapk commented 2 years ago

Pressing ctrl+alt in fact does nothing. Greeter randomly appears after some tries. Seems like a race condition of some sort.

thmey commented 2 years ago

This happens for me as well.

Nvidia 470
Intel (Power Saving Mode)

Only working solution is to unplug all monitors before logging in.

The issue still occurs when I disable those pam modules and restart lightdm.

Have been annoyed by the issue since update to the 6.0.1 I believe. It was not an issue with the initial release. Like when the HDMI cable is removed the loop breaks out after one or two blanks but sometimes it even takes 5 minutes or so to just get me to the login screen.

matfantinel commented 2 years ago

I have been getting this issue even with the PRIME profile being Integrated graphics only, on a Dell XPS 9570.

Today, even after unplugging the HDMI cable, Greeter wasn't able to load, and it flashed this on the screen:

I think the issue is related to #578, where I did a git bisect. The issue seems to be introduced in 6f18c79. Could someone verify that or do their own bisect?

marmeladapk commented 2 years ago

Since 6.0.2 this is fixed for me.
