Plus one more (and bit wired observation). When it hangs pressing RESET button on chase does not reset box - fans starts to spin like during initial boot and that’s all - (once I’ve got impression like there was something like monitor entering black mode). I need to power off and on box. I’m really very puzzled with the recent finding. Checked pressing RESET from X session and it works correctly,
Does anyone have a workable procedure for avoiding this bug until NVidia can nail down and fix? Revert to previous version of driver? I have not changed my hardware, and things ran fine on previous OS/driver versions. Now I have severe performance degradation, memory leaks, abound, and need to reboot several times per day. I used to run this hardware configuration without swap, without needing swap, and now I’m out of ram running only basic Desktop apps and no heavy graphical programs such as games. The state of things now is completely intolerable.
PS: I use driver version 470.86 as appropriate for the 780Ti
I’ve now been running with
- Ubuntu 21.10 with mainline 5.15.12-051512-generic
- intel_iommu=on
- NVIDIA Driver Version: 495.46
It has been 3 days, I am yet to see a modset error… I’ll continue to monitor.
I have AMD processor (Ryzen 3 3200G, but I don’t use built in graphics). Perhaps this depends on other components.
I have Asus PRIME X470-PRO ATX motherboard
I also had nvidia.modeset=1 as a kernel parameter. This parameter is both necessary for Wayland, and for the error to occur.
The error occurs after each boot, I do not have to wait for that at all.
I have discovered that one particularly detrimental setting to performance on my machine was the EHCI handoff support being set to on in my motherboard’s bios, when it should have been off. No word on whether this fixes the problem as I changed to 450-server Ubuntu package to avoid the bug discussed in this thread.
HI All,
The warning message is expected. When a client (such as the modesetting driver) attempts to open our DRM device node while modesetting permission is already acquired by something else (like the NVIDIA X driver), it has to fail, but the kernel won’t let us return a failure after v5.9-rc1, so we print this message. It won’t impact functionality of the NVIDIA X driver that already has modesetting permission. Safe to ignore as long as long as you didn’t need the other client to actually get modesetting permission. If you want to suppress the error, you would need to find which client is attempting to open the NVIDIA DRM device node and prevent it from doing so.

Don’t know if could be related, but with same issue of modesetting with kernel 5.15.16 when at the same time are registered crashes with kwin after login with sddm.
I’m using Gentoo distribution with a personal profile based on latest stable branch and this kind of crashes happen randomly. This is happening for a long time, so maybe a concurrency bug?
Associated bug report for KDE:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448968
Could you share what is the likely candidate or give some tips where to report it?
Not a solution, but a workaround.
After boot, when all I get is a black screen:
- Switch to console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and login as root
init 3 # shut down Xinit 5 # restart X- Switch back to graphical login (Ctrl-Alt-F7)
Works for me on openSUSE Tumbleweed.
I have the same issue, wondered what was causing it until I ran into this accidentally … top often also shows nvidia-modeset taking 2% cpu usage endlessly
In some cases opening the mode setting device may be intentional. As example when we have HMD ( Head mount display). I got this error message with SteamVr and with UnrealEditor with openXR Monado-service.
In Ubuntu 20.04 X server crashes with nvidia-driver-510 and nvidia-driver-495 when i start SteamVR with this message on dmesg console. Only combination that i have got working is nvidia-driver-470 with HMD mapped as Option “AllowHMD” “yes”
I had this issue appear when I disabled the iGPU (i965) to test Wayland on my machine. Turns out, it went away went I re-enabled the iGPU in the BIOS, and booted back to X11.
I have the same problem. My gui is affected by it ie. pixelated and flickering screen. If you google the issue, it seems to be quite common. It would be nice to have a real solution as opposed to some hand waving …
I get “[drm:nv_drm_master_set [nvidia_drm]] ERROR [nvidia-drm] [GPU ID 0x00000100] Failed to grab modeset ownership” when trying to suspend ubuntu 20.04 and it won’t suspend it simply shows the login screen
I updated ubuntu yesterday and this porblem is gone. I couldn’t suspend my laptop before or even change my screen brightness, now all of a suden everything works as expected. Here’s some info, perhaps it might help

i have a the same problem with Ubuntu 18.04 and NVIDIA Gforce 3060 (Dirver 515.48.07)

If the lines are commented out, the error message disappears.
If you leave this uncommented in at least one of the files, the error message will appear again.

I have the same issue in Debian when I’m using gdm and Gnome with ASUS TUF F17 (Nvidia 3060):
- Error printed by dmesg: [drm:drm_new_set_master [drm]] ERROR [nvidia-drm] [GPU ID 0x00000100] Failed to grab modeset ownership
- Fans are working differently (the laptop overheats more these days before how it was before and I’m not doing anything more CPU or GPU intensive than before)
- When I change to console and back to graphics, keyboards are no longer working (CTRL+SHIFT+F1, CTRL+SHIFT+F2, CTRL+SHIFT+F3, …)
- Output printed by the command: grep --include=*.conf -rnw ‘/’ -e “nvidia-drm” 2>/dev/null
also mentions those options but in another configuration file:
/etc/modprobe.d/supergfxd.conf:6:options nvidia-drm modeset=1
Commenting out that line fixed it for me, I checked and it worked. Good answer freeavagames.
