Re: [e-users] e16 random crashes when minimizing app into iconbox

Hi Kim, Pavel,

I encounter the same kind of crashes when minimizing.
My machine also has an Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 (rev 06).

@Pavel, let me guess, you are using a dual-screen setup?

I never reported the crash here, because it seemed to me that it was indeed
a driver issue.

After a cras, dmesg shows:
i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] Resetting rcs0 for preemption time out
i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] Xorg[977] context reset due to GPU hang
i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] GPU HANG: ecode 9:1:85dffffb, in Xorg [977]

And xorg.log will contain the following stack trace:

Have you checked if you see the same things?

There is an issue reported for this ecode that might be related:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/4858

What "fixed" it for me was:
b) I use the workaround from the issue and run "intel_gpu_frequency -m"
after startup.
a) I no longer minimize (I was using that mainly to move apps from one
virtual Area to anonther. I now do this via stick/unstick).

Kind Regards
