RTX 5070 Mobile (Blackwell) - GSP Timeouts (0x0000ca7d) & Xid 79 on Kernel 6.17 / Driver 580.126 / Ubuntu 24.04.4

Graphics / Linux Linux

System Configuration

  • Model: ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 GA403WP (2025 Model)

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370

  • iGPU: Radeon™ 890M × 24

  • dGPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 5070 Laptop GPU (Blackwell architecture)

  • OS: Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS

  • Kernel: Linux 6.17.0-14-generic

  • NVIDIA Driver: 580.126.09

  • Firmware: GA403WP.300

  • Display Server: X11

The system experiences random, critical freezes during operation (chrome browsing, Visual Studio code). The freezes are characterized by a flood of nvidia-modeset errors indicating that the GPU System Processor (GSP) has ceased responding to RPC calls, eventually leading to the GPU falling off the bus. This occurs most frequently during power state transitions or varying loads.

I would appreciate your help understanding whether the problem is due to the newer hardware and Linux kernel available in Ubuntu 24.04.4, or if it is due to something else. Thank you in advance!

You’re at least 4 versions behind on what ASUS claims are “critical” firmware updates.
I suggest you update and see if that fixes it.
If it doesn’t help, then hopefully NVIDIA can take a deeper look. I would also generate a new bug report in that case.
