 Posted: Wed May 15, 2013 3:35 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] Issue with X on nvidia drivers |
 |
|
Hello,
I tried to look for this issue on the boards, but could not find this one (maybe I was not trying so hard, in that case sorry).
I had a working system yesterday, but after an update (8 packages) problems with X occurred today.
| Code: |
1368537491: >>> emerge (1 of 8) sys-apps/file-5.12-r1 to /
1368537505: >>> emerge (2 of 8) sys-apps/pciutils-3.2.0 to /
1368537509: >>> emerge (3 of 8) net-misc/curl-7.30.0 to /
1368537550: >>> emerge (4 of 8) media-libs/raptor-2.0.9 to /
1368537565: >>> emerge (5 of 8) app-editors/vim-core-7.3.762 to /
1368537585: >>> emerge (6 of 8) app-editors/vim-7.3.762 to /
1368537615: >>> emerge (7 of 8) sys-apps/dbus-1.6.10 to /
1368537641: >>> emerge (8 of 8) dev-python/dbus-python-1.2.0 to /

Today I booted the computer and got into kdm (I use KDE4). The login window disappears after entering credentials and after a while X server restarts.

I don't know what went wrong and could not figure it out. I reverted back to older versions of dbus and dbus-python thinking that they might be to blame after update.
I tried to use older nvidia driver (or vesa - same results here), nouveau and nv do not work. I tried this on my older kernels, but to no avail.
It might be some small thing I'm missing. If you want more logs/confs, let me know.
Thank you for any help/hint.

| Could it be that you changed the kernel somewhere before rebooting ? |

No, I haven't changed the kernel in between reboots, nor have I made any changes to the current kernel.
I tried to initialize X using 'startx' from within my account and it crashed with an error. I cannot post the error (forgot about it) as I'll be away from the box for a few days.
But from what I can recollect, there was a backtrace in 4 points, with first 2 pointing to /usr/bin/X executable, the 3rd one mentioning libpthread.so library and the 4th one was full question marks.
The only thing that occurs to my mind now is to try and recompile xorg-server (/usr/bin/X) and glibc (libpthread.so), when I get the chance. |

| Perhaps you could try to remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf and rebuild it with nvidia-xconfig, just to make sure there is no fault in the config itself. |

Issue solved - if one can say that. There was a problem with my user profile (Who would have guested that?)
I have no idea what caused that - I created a new user, migrated all the data. I could not simply migrate all the hidden directories, as it happened again even in new account.
I did not figure out which local configs did that (the account worked fine with migrated .kde4, .local, .config).
So here I am, back in my desktop and deeply puzzled 
Thanks for any help attempts, or just having a look.
