lucashanak commented 6 years ago

Hi When I use kernel 4.15 and plug external display to hdmi port, system freeze and I must reset PC. When I boot 4.14 kernel, external display works OK. Ubuntu 17.10 and xfce. Anyone have same problem?

Regression could happen! What kernel version (rc and build date) are you using at the moment? Could you post the output of "problem-reporting.sh" script? This will help debug

Kernel: 4.15.0-rc5-custom-matlala-3-1-2018 Desktop Environment: Display: :0.0 Monitor: DSI1 connected primary 1344x840+0+0 right (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 95mm x 151mm Scripts: gpdfand gpdscreen gpdscreen-indicator EFI: [ 0.000000] efi: EFI v2.40 by American Megatrends EFI Release Date: 06/28/2017

Not sure now, but maybe it freezes only when I click extend right for second LCD on HDMI. I must try... And proble is only with 4.15 kernel, all tested versions Petr Matula, your, my, rc5, rc3.... 4.14 was OK.

Same system and settings, only reboot. 4.14 OK, 4.15 freeze.

Same for me. System freeze on kernel 4.15. Regards

stockmind commented 6 years ago

The issue persist on latest kernels? Can you attach your monitors.xml file? You can find it here: ~/.config/monitors.xml Thanks! Also @R136a are you on XFCE too?

I can confirm the problem still happens with 4.15 latest kernel and Xfce.

No issue running on 4.14.

4.15 is stable as long as the HDMI out is not used. I tried changing bios parameters ( mostly thermal ) but nothing improved. It also seems like the fan is running more under 4.14 compared to 4.15 but this is a feeling, nothing measured.

When I start with 4.15 using Debian Testing, display is highly magnified but doesn't freeze. Using HDMI. 4.14 works fine. AMD APU and ASUS motherboard.
