Bug#833132: closed by Michael Gilbert <mgilbert@debian.org> (Re: steam: Steam randomly crashes)



Hi Mike

I installed the backport "libdrm-noveau2 2.4.70-1~bpo8+1" and then ran Universe Sandbox ² continuously for four hours with no problems. Moreover, when I executed "cat /var/log/messages | grep -i panic" or "cat /var/log/kern.log | grep -i "failed to idle channel"" several times over these four hours, there was, most desirably, no output.

One thing though, after those four hours, suddenly my system slowed right up. However, I do not think it was Sandbox or nouveau's fault, because when I checked the logs again after logging out then logging back in, there was again no output of the aforementioned error messages. However, after checking those log files for "segfault", I found a reference to my Google Chrome browser.

In short, it seems the Nouveau backport does the trick, but I will monitor it for a while by running Universe Sandbox ² again over extended periods.

Cheers

Vince

Subject: steam: Steam randomly crashes in Universe Sandbox ² locking my system.
Package: steam
Version: 1.0.0.49-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,



   * What led up to the situation? When I run Universe Sandbox ² in steam, my system other than the mouser cursor froze. I had to CTRL-ALT-DELETE to rebbot
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)? I noted the following message on my screen when it went black: "nouveau E[Xorg[953]] failed to idle channel 0xcccc0000 [Xorg[953]]".
   * What was the outcome of this action? My system rebooted, but when I run Universe Sanbox again in steam, the same thing happens again randomly.
   * What outcome did you expect instead? I was hoping this was a one-off, but after six random occurences, it clearly is not.
