nvLock: client timed out, taking the lock after changing refresh rate of second monitor

[Cinquero]

I have a dual-screen setup with two separate screens handled by one nvidia geforce graphics card.

Bug gets triggered when starting playback (mplayer) on second screen in fullscreen mode, then quickly and repeatedly move the mouse from screen one to two and back. When disabling the hardware mouse cursor in xorg.conf, the problem goes away.

dmesg:

the attached xorg.conf has hwcursor set to false, but must be set to true in order to trigger the bug.

[Peter Hutterer (peter-hutterer)]

I'm sure there's a bug file for this already but I couldn't find it. Either way, it's a longer-standing issue that hasn't been tracked down yet. It's in the server though.

Is there anything I can do to help?

a reliable reproducer. unfortunately, it seems to be a race condition and I haven't managed to reliably trigger it yet.

[Bugs-freedesktop-org-674292 (bugs-freedesktop-org-674292)]

It is *very* reliable here.

[Peter Hutterer (peter-hutterer)]

once it hangs, attach gdb and see what causes the loop. Is it stuck in a single function or does it actually still process events?

The culprit is "DISPLAY=:0.1 xrandr -r 24".

It always happens after switching the refresh rate of the second screen using xrandr.

Forwarded to nvidia.

It gets stuck somewhere within the nvidia driver.

[Bryce Harrington (bryce)]

The 295.33 driver was updated in Ubuntu recently. Please re-test after updating to that version, and report back here if that resolves the issue. It includes several DisplayPort fixes which might be relevant to your issue.
