Bug ID: 100616 Summary: With Radeon HD 8550M system freezes when running 3D application Product: DRI Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) OS: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: medium Component: DRM/Radeon Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: erham65t@yahoo.com
Created attachment 130753 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=130753&action=edit dmesg output
My laptop has hybrid graphics.
Output of "lspci | grep AMD":
"0a:00.0 Display controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Sun LE [Radeon HD 8550M / R5 M230] (rev ff)"
I use an application called "Visual Molecular Dynamics", which opens an OpenGL window and renders 3D images. There is no problem when using the integrated GPU. But when I run the application using DRI_PRIME=1, the system freezes when the OpenGL window is being opened. I need to use the dedicated GPU, because the integrated GPU isn't powerful enough for my work.
OS: Ubuntu 16.04 64bit, with last updates

--- Comment #1 from Arham Amouei erham65t@yahoo.com --- I also tried
DRI_PRIME=1 glxgears
It doesn't freeze, but shows nothing.

--- Comment #2 from Arham Amouei erham65t@yahoo.com --- I recently installed ubuntu 18.04. I also added the PPA ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers to have the latest version of the driver.
Now, when I try
DRI_PRIME=1 glxgears
it usually works fine, but sometimes the system freezes when I maximize the window.
The other software I mentioned, i.e. "Visual Molecular Dynamics", crashes much more frequently, maybe because its 3D job is heavier.
