another bug report for my 8400m g gpu.
bug is reproduceable with any of 3xx driver series.
I. environments
manjaro linux, 3.9 kernel - fails
arch linux - 3 series kernel - fails
debian wheezy - 3 series kernel - fails
windows 7 (sic!) - fails
driver versions:
tested every driver of 3xx series
2xx - not tested
173.xx - runs well
II. installation method:
- building driver from binary against 3.9 kernel
- installing driver from arch repo
III. reproduction method
former attempts to run driver always failed after login to DE (kde, gnome) just after login manager.
i’ve figured out that running de is possible when compositing is disabled, however running any app that (probably) might use opengl in any forms results in crash
manajro clean install with xfce and 325.15 let mi login to xfce and run glxgears which run for
a second or two - then resulting in X crash. crash repeats always with same method applied. after few minutes laptop leds indicate kernel panic, and after another while computer shuts down.
IV. debug
this time i’ve tried to debug problem via ssh, running nvidia-bud-report right after crash.
bug report was generated properly.
also worth mentioning is top output after crash:

as i’ve spent 20+ hours testing plenty of configurations and trying to debug your driver i kindly ask developers to spend 30 second just to respond, that they recieved this bug report and are aware of the problem.
