--- Comment #4 from Ben Steel bhs_suse@precisionforesight.com --- Created attachment 131881 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=131881&action=edit dmesg after rmmod and insmod of nouveau
Tried the command sudo rmmod -v nouveau followed by sudo insmod /lib/modules/4.11.3-1-default/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau.ko
X was not running and I was on console. In each case stdout and stderr were redirected, but results were zero-length, so omitted for clarity. Results of insmod: Visibly, the four dmesg items from 1763.415095 to 1763.417364 were shown, the dispay froze up and the fan turned on, blowing very warm air. SSH was very slow, taking around a minute to get a prompt. Each command typed could take a similar amount of time. A shutdown command was never able to complete. Dmesg output during the ssh session after insmod is attached. Hope this helps.
