journalctl -b output

I've seen some

It is present in a fresh 4th round pre-5beta2 dual iso install, too.

I didn't configure any acceleration, this is with default settings.

However, I don't know yet how to check whether the default it what it is supposed to be.

Comment 1 Marja Van Waes 2014-12-21 17:57:07 CET
The other system which has something similar, is this one
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/User:Marja/QA/Hardware#Lenovo_ThinkPad_L530

It was last updated today, and also runs kernel-desktop-3.18.1-1.mga5

[root@DenkBlok3Cauldron5a1_EFI marja]# journalctl -b | grep underrun
Dec 21 17:48:07 DenkBlok3Cauldron5a1_EFI kernel: [drm:cpt_set_fifo_underrun_reporting] *ERROR* uncleared pch fifo underrun on pch transcoder A

[root@DenkBlok3Cauldron5a1_EFI marja]# 

I'll do a fresh 5beta2 install over this install asap, and when the errors are still there, file a separate bug report (it should go into a separate report then, correct?)
Comment 2 Marja Van Waes 2015-01-06 17:36:50 CET
Don't see those errors any longer on this system, neither in a fresh cauldron install (today's dual iso), nor after fully updating an older cauldron

Resolution: (none) => FIXED

Comment 3 Marja Van Waes 2015-06-18 09:59:07 CEST
Sorry, should have reopened this bug long ago.

I think it was already before the 3.19 kernels (so in one of the later 3.18 kernels) that the bug returned. 
So I assume the error has only been suppressed when it seemed solved.

I'll attach the output of "journalctl -b | grep underrun"

does kernel 4.1.7 work any better ?

No, sorry Thomas:

Mass-reassigning all bugs with "kernel" in the Source RPM field that are assigned to tmb, to the kernel packagers group, because tmb is currently MIA.

Assignee: tmb => kernel

Comment 8 Marc Krämer 2016-10-07 11:36:57 CEST
I have the same issue for some time. But it only happens when a second monitor was once attached (even temporary). Mayby due to different resolution?

When this error occurs both screens go blank for some time. It happens most of the time when switching to/scrolling a terminal app like mate-terminal. Also browserbased video playback seems to cause this more often.

Maybe these lines from dmesg may help:

@Marja: this was fixed in 4.4 Kernel releases. Will you close this?

Over two years too late, but, yes, finally closing.

Resolution: (none) => FIXED
