Bug ID: 110139 Summary: Driver throws exceptions when external display is connected over HDMI Product: DRI Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) OS: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: General Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: bastiborchers@gmx.net
Created attachment 143690 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=143690&action=edit The complete output of dmesg
Hello! Let me state right now that this is my first bug report and I am a little bit lost about what criteria I have to fulfill and whether I am reporting for the correct component.
My system: I am using Arch Linux with the 5.0.1 Linux kernel. I have a Thinkpad P1 laptop with an Intel 8750H and an NVidia Quadro P1000.
What happens: Before I turn on my laptop, I connected my external display via HDMI. Then I turn on my laptop and reach the bare tty (I am not using any Login Manager). While the tty is displayed, a lot of kernel messages are printed to the standard output about nouveau having some problems. As soon as I try to login (which starts my Window Manager, Sway), the system freezes and I have to hard reset my Laptop.
Workaround: When I disconnect the HDMI cable before booting and connect it AFTER I logged into my system, then my external display works correctly.
I dumped my whole dmesg output into the attached 'system.log' file, and I also retrieved the VBIOS information for my external display, I think.
Let me know, if I can provide any further information and again, excuse any noob mistakes.

--- Comment #2 from bastiborchers@gmx.net --- Oh, I forgot to mention that in previous Kernel versions (at least up to 4.8), I had the same problem, but it was worse, since when reaching the tty with the HDMI connected, the system immediately froze. This was different, because with 5.0.1 I can at least able to reach tty and fetch the dmesg output, as the system only freezes if I actually try to login on tty
