I have just pushed slightly newer driver to the dev-il repo (275.09.07). Please let us know if the new driver works any better.

I had issues getting my desktop to start after my initial boot. I'm using startx to launch dwm via xinitc.

I would see the nvidia splash screen and then just blackscreen. Usually killing X and restarting it would fix it.

I loaded the 275.09.07 driver and the issue has gone away.

Re-opening. Issue is identified as X.org being built with the wrong compiler:

i.e. Sun Studio 12.1 was used when 12.0 is needed. There is a patch to fix this with 12.1:

http://hg.openindiana.org/upstream/oracle/xnv/rev/027712a1965a

However 12.0 should have been used. We're going to respin xnv and re-import before the release.

Updated by Marion Hakanson over 11 years ago

This Xorg freeze (or one exactly like what's described in issue 1161) is still happening on two of my systems. Both run OI-151a now, and both have the nVidia driver version 280.13; The crash also happened under OI-148 with the same nVidia driver. One machine is 64-bit Intel Core i7 w/8GB RAM, GeForce 7300GT; The other is 32-bit Intel P4 w/2GB RAM, GeForce 6200.

When the problem occurs, mouse and keyboard input are ignored, but one can log remotely. You see the Xorg process using 100% CPU; Actually it shows in "prstat -m" as 33% USR, 33% LCK, 33% SLP. Usually restarting gdm is not sufficient, I think the nVidia card or driver is in an unhappy state, with some blocks of black & white bars on the screen after Xorg exits, so I usually just reboot the system.

Also, the Xorg.0.log shows entries like the ones below at the end, prior to killing it.

(WW) Oct 04 10:24:40 NVIDIA: WAIT (2, 6, 0x8000, 0x0000c290, 0x0000ca08)
(WW) Oct 04 10:24:47 NVIDIA: WAIT (1, 6, 0x8000, 0x0000c290, 0x0000ca08)
