Since both of these packages were updated on my system (EndeavourOS), my second monitor randomly freezes. It’s plugged in HDMI on a Lenovo Legion 5 (RTX 3060). I’m also using the nvidia-dkms driver (525.89.02). [31783.804140] nvidia-modeset: ERROR: GPU:0: Idling display engine timed out: 0x0000c67e:0:0:1128 [31785.804425] nvidia-modeset: ERROR: GPU:0: Idling display engine timed out: 0x0000c67e:0:0:1128 This seems to be a known bug that was never addressed here. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=282669 The only workaround is… downgrading both packages.

Same issue here, both external monitors freeze randomly (seems somewhat related to when GPU/CPU is under heavy load). Levono ThinkPad P16 gen 1 and and ubuntu 22.04, driver version 525.85.12

I’m on a lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 4i, same issue here, driver version 525.89.02, kernel 6.2.2

@randamunanamae @linushn93 could you guys please share a log when this happen? Haven’t had this bug for a while.

Just had this bug again ~8min ago while playing Diablo IV. Nothing to see in dmesg this time, but my external monitor is completely frozen. nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (1.7 MB)

We have seen similar error logs internally on few setups and have been root caused as well. I suspect it to be same issue, fix will be available in upcoming driver release.

Continuing to experience this issue. Any updates on if a fix has been identified and what release it will go out with?

Acer ConceptD Driver: 530.30.02 CUDA Version 12.1, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 running Xorg. I step away from my desk for more than 15 minutes and I come back to a frozen system. Getting extremely frustrated.

@amrits Would you take a look at this? Reported a few months ago, no response at all, but there’s a nvidia-bug-report log there. [image] NVIDIA driver 530.x bug: console/X server hang [Quadro M1200 Mobile] Linux startx completely hangs the console/monitor and keyboard, but the machine is responsive via SSH. This has been happening from driver versions since 525.60 at least. Rolling back to 520.56 fixes this issue. This is a NVIDIA Corporation GM107GLM [Quadro M1200 Mobile] (rev a2) running under Linux Kernel 6.X. X server hangs in such a way that graceful rebooting is impossible, it is necessary to hard reboot the machine. Log from nvidia-bug-report.sh follows. nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (1.2 MB) I think my bug is related to this one. Screen just stays black after startx and if I kill X (via SSH) then the same “Idling display engine timed out” line begins to appear in dmesg. I cannot upgrade my kernel any longer because the last working driver (520.56) doesn’t compile against newer kernels.

I am still on 515.105.01 and can confirm this bug exists on this version, but only when i play on Steam. So i was going to upgrade to 530 as @amrits said that this bug will be fixed, but it seems like it isnt yet, since someone after that post reported they are still experiencing these issues. Any idea which release this bug will be fixed in?

Can someone please try with driver 535.54.03 and share test results. https://in.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/535.54.03/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-535.54.03.run If issue still persists, please share fresh nvidia bug report.
