Whenever I start my system, or resume from suspend or even shutdown, systemd shows these errors:

I have been getting this error since kernel update since kernel 3.13.5, present kernel is 3.14.0-5. Sometimes system just hangs when shutting down.

My VGA details:

lspci -k | grep -A3 VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09)
	Subsystem: Dell Device 0572
	Kernel driver in use: i915
	Kernel modules: i915
--
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Chelsea LP [Radeon HD 7730M] (rev ff)
	Kernel driver in use: radeon
	Kernel modules: radeon
07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 07)

I have an integrated intel HD4000 and AMD HD7730m. The AMD gpu is turned off becuase of dpm being enabled since kernel 3.13 (thats what the wiki says), I am not using any methods to disable it manually.
I have also tried installing the catalyst-test-pxp from AUR but it boots to a blank screen and when i try to restart X, i get a segfault. Any solution?

EDIT: Kernel update 3.15.1-1-ARCH solved the problem.

So what did you do??

gundamfj · 2014-04-16 18:31:19

I have the same problem too. And I have no ideas what I should do
Hey, I think you have the same laptop as me, Dell Inspiron 7520.

Maybe a kernel bug, and please post this thread to "Kernel & Hardware"

Yes my laptop is a Dell Inspiron 7520 and its been happening since 4 kernel updates now. Now on 3.14.1-1 and still facing the same issue, infact the error shows up every time i see the console screen i.e shutdown, boot, suspend, resume and even log out!

Have you tried installing catalyst-test-pxp?

Hi.

Same Laptop (Dell 7520), same problem. The catalyst driver is not the best option on a rollin release...

hjpbarcelos · 2014-04-18 15:14:20

Same laptop here, I get this error, but when I run:

DRI_PRIME=1 glxspheres64

Graphic card seems to be working fine, since it runs at 200+ fps.

With:

DRI_PRIME=0 glxspheres64

I get ~60 fps.

So the issue just disappears?? If so I will try this..

The bug report seems to be active, so we will have to wait for a while for the patch... Although there is a proposed patch that seems to remove the UVD error, have you tried it??

I quote a comment "Nopes. It makes the UVD errors go away, but the boot still gets stuck at the same point. Everything hangs up, requiring me to do a hard reboot."
The patch did not fix the bug. Honestly, the bug has been there since kernel 3.11.

ishaanbahal · 2014-05-24 12:47:09

Any found a solution to this error??
I am still getting the same error with 3.14.4-1-ARCH kernel.

ghaith · 2014-05-25 08:40:43

That bug report in the kernel tracker says it was fixed upstream, or so I understood, maybe try mainline? I will when i have time as i'm facing the same issue
