 Posted: Sun Jan 28, 2018 9:26 am Post subject: Black sddm screen and black plasma screen with new kernel |
 |
|
In these days I've repeatedly had problems with a black unresponsive sddm screen and plasma (and apparently random error messages with various libraries segfaulting)
I had recently updated from 4.14.14 to 4.14.15 kernel.
Solution: before changing from one of these kernels to the other (in either direction) cancelling the contents of /var/lib/sddm __and__ the contents of ~/.cache allows everything to work properly.
I don't know if this is a kernel problem or an xorg problem or what, just thought it might be useful to know.

| It has a lot of issues apparently, so I'd advise downgrade for the time being. At least I would not start to search for the error elsewhere as long as this version is installed. |

Yes. mesa-18.0.0_rc2 was my problem on three systems. I downgraded mesa and sddm, rebuilt kde-plasma/plasma-meta with USE="sddm", and then to be extra sure rebuilt xorg-server, and xorg-drivers.
That solved 2 days of floundering doing kernel rebuilds in VT's , and with all sorts of other possible fixes I read about for the DM failures, and some aggrevating black screen lockups and no way to unlock them but a cold reboot.
On reboot after the mesa and sddm downgrades, all was normal. Oh well, running ~amd64 systems ocassionally things like this will sneak through on a @world update.

@asturm
Just saw this: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Mesa-18.0-RC3-Released
Seems like a pretty extensive list of changes. I'm wondering if any of these would fix the issues with RC2 which necessitated the downgrade to 17.3.3?
I'm surely not knowledgeable enough to reach an informed conclusion.

| Just give it a try. I don't have these issues so I won't be able to confirm... |

I'll give it a try soon as it's in the tree.

I can confirm mesa-18.0.0_rc3 fixes the issues. If anyone wants to get into the weeds.....
