Graphical glitches after wakeup from suspend to ram

janoliver · 2013-07-08 16:04:16

Hi, since (I believe) yesterday, I cannot properly wake up from suspend to memory anymore. Some X programs, for example Chromium, are showing graphical glitches and are essentially not usable anymore. Sometimes, it seems to work though, sometimes the glitches are kind of minor (e.g., in Chromium the bookmark names are not shown), sometimes large parts of the X windows are just black.

When I searched the logs, I only found the following unknown entries

May 07 08:30:58 oli kernel: [drm] Wrong MCH_SSKPD value: 0x16040307
May 07 08:30:58 oli kernel: [drm] This can cause pipe underruns and display issues.
May 07 08:30:58 oli kernel: [drm] Please upgrade your BIOS to fix this.

, however, as you can see, these exist since May and may not have anything to do with my problem.

Is there anybody who experiences something similar? What can I do? Googling has been unsuccessful so far.

Best regards and thank you,
janoliver

Been having this problem recently as well. I think its linked to this:-

http://seife.kernalert.de/blog/2013/07/ … linux-310/

Please check for mentions of mei_me in your logs. Mine shows this repeatedly a short while after resume:-

Jul 11 19:59:16 ngoonee-laptop kernel: mei_me 0000:00:16.0: reset: wrong host start response
Jul 11 19:59:16 ngoonee-laptop kernel: mei_me 0000:00:16.0: unexpected reset: dev_state = RESETTING

Hi, thank you for the reply. I found that report earlier and tried detaching the mei_me driver, but it didn't help. Also, I have no such occurrences of mei_me in the logs:

oli ~ sudo journalctl --this-boot --no-pager | grep mei_me
Jul 12 07:31:51 oli kernel: mei_me 0000:00:16.0: suspend
Jul 12 07:31:51 oli kernel: mei_me 0000:00:16.0: irq 47 for MSI/MSI-X

I am quite sure it is this Issue: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60530

Downgrading the Kernel to 3.9.9 helps for now.

I think the MEI bug causes a total hang on suspend/resume, not graphical glitches. the graphical glitches is indeed the bugzilla report listed above. I appear to have both of these bugs on my machine though when using 3.10 (either graphical glitches on resume, or total hang at a black screen), downgrading to 3.9.9 fixes both for me (intel ivybridge).

Similarly, downgrading linux and packages that require it fixes suspend for me.

Downgrading to 3.9.9 fixed it for me as well (sandy bridge)

e: Shouldn't this topic be in the kernel forum?

I would like to ask You for one thing - you downgarded it trough /var/cache/pacman/pkg, right? How would you do downgarde if there weren't any package at all because you cleaned your system and deleted it?

Use the Arch Rollback Machine.

There is at least one other thread about this which suggests various workarounds (patched kernel, downgrade, switch to SNA).

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60530 seems to say the fix will be in 3.10.5 (not yet in [testing], but will come soon enough I'm sure).

Sounds good can't wait. Not that impatient as to compile my own though =p

I have this bug in 3.10.5-1

Did you reboot? If you are using intel, did you try setting the default acceleration back to uxa?

Fregtux · 2013-08-14 10:43:51

I've same issue, with 3.10.6-2: I read from journactl:

mei_me 0000:00:16.0: suspend

but I don't see any graphical glitches or other problems. Is it resoluble?

What issue? If you don't see any graphical problems, in what sense do you have the same issue? Is what resolvable? You don't mention any problem.

Fregtux · 2013-08-16 07:41:23

You are right: I found that output running journactl -p 3 so I search in the forum and I found this thread. So I ask about it: I was wrong to write my last post, sorry. I mean if that output is a problem or not without any graphical problem.

cfr · 2013-08-16 20:49:39

I think it is not a problem. At least, I am hoping so.

Arch Linux
