Possibly compiz could be outputing something just before it goes down.

Copy attached as requested. Error has occurred three times now. Still
no idea what use case triggers the error to occur.

Thanks,

Installed 3.17 on top of the 3.16.0-21

Both 3.16.0-21 and 3.17 get compiz failures.

Note after the failure occurs, intrepid recovers and keeps on running.
Reboot and may run without getting the bug to repeat.

Install a new kernels and bug may occur again.

Do you have multi monitors? Do you still get the crash when you have a password? Anything else you have set up that is different then a default install?

We have some ideas, but we cant really confirm a fix at all until we have someone who can reproduce it!

I have 4 monitors running on one card. The crash only happened on restart after install. Has not happened since.

Hi

This occurs whenever I turn my laptop on, whether I have my monitor plugged
in or not.

The problem for me seems to be the nouveau -video driver, and after i suspend my laptop does not wake up. A hard reboot is the only option. With the Nvidia Proprietary Driver this problem does not appear.

@Logan: gotcha, applogies!

Marco Trevisan mentioned on Google+ that a trace made when the glib and gtk dbg packages were installed would be helpul, but I probably didn't submit the trace in the way he intended.

He also said to install compiz and unity dbg packages, but I can't seem to find them. Are they built for Utopic, or do I need to build them myself?

_usr_bin_compiz.1000.crash

up and running. Tried a
sudo ubuntu-bug _usr_bin_compiz.1000.crash
got the drop down message about an internal error
Asked to report the bug.
that's all. Ubuntu-bug never went to launchpad.

Has been running utopic fine since mid September.

Does this look like similar unity problems as in Bug #1366351 comment #66?

Thanks.

Jerry,

If you still have that crash file, install unity debug symbols (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash#Debug_Symbol_Packages) and do:

apport-unpack /var/crash/_usr_bin_compiz.1000.crash /tmp/unity-crash

Then:
  gdb /usr/bin/compiz /tmp/unity-crash/CoreDump

At this point, do:
  bt full

And post the output here

Thanks, it seems indeed another problem.

Can you please open another bug (like "unity crashes in unity::UnityScreen::paintDisplay", using ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_usr_bin_compiz.1000.crash)?

It would also be nice, if you could (from gdb), do:
  print gpu_device
  print *gpu_device
  print gpu_device->backup_texture0_
  print *(gpu_device->backup_texture0_)
  print gpu_device->backup_texture0_->_NumMipLevel
  print gpu_device->backup_texture0_->_SurfaceArray

Tried

Nothing else.

Tried removing the *upload and *uploaded files, same thing. Nothing past the first drop down...

Any ideas?

Maybe install the new .iso and try ubuntu-bug on that one. Too late tonight.

Thanks

I downloaded a new .iso. same bug occurred on both booting the .iso and booting the install.

In Comment #70 Marco suggested:

"Can you please open another bug (like "unity crashes in unity::UnityScreen::paintDisplay", using ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_usr_bin_compiz.1000.crash)?"

Does not work. I get the drop down window "Sorry. ubuntu has experienced an internal error..."
I select Continue, and nothing visible happens.
There are two new files:

_usr_bin_compiz.1000.upload
_usr_bin_compiz.1000.uploaded

but a bug is never processed.

I think ubuntu-bug has found a way to reduce the number of bugs reported....

Thanks anyway, Jerry

I had this issue after booting into Unity very often but not all the time with an AMD Athlon(tm) 5350 APU with Radeon(tm) R3.

At first I connected a second monitor to the system (first monitor is connected via DVI port, second monitor via HDMI port). Thereafter I realized that this monitor was not necessary for all my work and decided to temporarily turn off the second monitor in the unity system settings (via section "Displays").
Later, I disconnected the second monitor completely and left the "disabled" setting unchanged for this monitor in the Unity system settings (section "Displays"). Thereafter, I observed this issue on the computer and the pain started.

A few days ago, I reconnected the second monitor again, changed the Unity system settings back to "enabled", and disconnected the monitor again. Until now, I have not observed this issue any more. I will keep an eye on it.

Is it possible that there is a race condition in the code and Unity tries to disable a monitor that is not connected to the system at that time?

Maybe this comment will help other people. I will add a line to this comment if I see this issue again within the next few days.
