Dear all,
since 4.4-rc (at least rc2 it was the first I tested), the Intel DRI
is in very broken state.
Hardware: Sony VAIO Pro
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: Sony Corporation Device 90b6
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 40
Memory at f5c00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M]
Memory at e0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
I/O ports at f000 [size=64]
Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
Capabilities: [90] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit-
Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [a4] PCI Advanced Features
Kernel driver in use: i915
Symptoms:
* font corruption
sometime sets of glyphs, or practically all glyphs disappear
related probably to bug
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55500
I have sent some info there already, without response
Currently my font displays some kind of strange symbols instead of
an m ... looks a bit like a Kanji.
* drm/i915 hang:
GPU HANG: ecode 7:0:0x86d2bff9, in cinnamon [9300], reason: Ring hung, action: reset
opened a new bug as advised
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93279
several other hangs like that, reported only one
* intelfb is dead
switching to the console often leaves a black console
Most of the time this happens after a suspend to ram and wake up, but
not always.
Let me know if there is anything else one might want to know
Thanks
Norbert

I remember a similar bug around 2.99.917 but that tag is over a year
old now and there have been many bug fixes since. You'll need to
verify you can still reproduce your issue with the latest from
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel and if so
do a bisect from the previous working kernel or xf86-video-intel to
identify the problematic commit.
