 Posted: Fri Oct 25, 2024 3:58 am Post subject: mate-power-manager and black screen |
 |
|
Hi, I have a multiseat installation with 2 seats now. I use mate-desktop.
Everything works just fine, but if mate-power-manager is installed it prevents me for having even the power on self screen.
I cant get any display what ever I try, restarting display-manager does not bring up the display and reboot does not help
either. Display is completety dead until I remove mate-power-manager, after that display starts to work as it should.
I have two different nvidia cards and this happens only on GTX 970, 1070 keeps working, 970 gets totally jammed.
But how can I prevent mate-power-manager to newer install again on my system? Arent there some depedencies that installss it again and again?

If you want a package not to be installed, then emerge --ask --verbose --depclean package to get rid of it. Once it is gone, add it to /etc/portage/package.mask to keep it out.
In the cases where this fails, is the system alive with no video (but reachable over ssh) or is it completely dead? Does ACPI soft-off work or are you required to use the 8-second-hold hard-off? If the system is alive at all, do logs afterward show any messages about why it was broken? |

This same thing happened when this computer had Debian and multiseat with it too.
Only the display goes totally black and even restarting the computer does not help here.
After mate-power-manager is removed, then I get the X working again. I ssh:d to remove the power-manager.
Even the bios-screen does not show up during the boot when this happens..
Chatgpt anayzed the messages and found the following
| Code: | Analyzing the log file, the issue with the screen blanking on seat0 while mate-power-manager is installed seems to stem from several repeated errors related to the NVIDIA graphics driver and its inability to read the EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) for the display device connected to HDMI-0. Here are the relevant log snippets:
User-defined mode not supported:
yaml
Kopioi koodi
nvidia 0000:02:00.0: [drm] User-defined mode not supported: "720x576": 60 32650 720 744 816 912 576 577 580 597 0x20 0x6 |
With debian I had not modified mode at all, so I dont think this has nothing to do with the problem.
| Code: | | nvidia-modeset: WARNING: GPU:0: Unable to read EDID for display device SAMSUNG (HDMI-0) |
So this has been happening for many years now and with many installs. |

So how should I update mate if mate-power-manager is masked?
| Code: | selected: (mate-base/mate-1.28.0:0/0::gentoo, installed)
skipped: (mate-base/mate-1.28.0:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (see unsatisfied dependency below)
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=mate-extra/mate-power-manager-1.28*" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- mate-extra/mate-power-manager-1.28.1-r1::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)
(dependency required by "mate-base/mate-1.28.0::gentoo[extras]" [ebuild])
For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

You could try to disable the "extras" use flag on mate-base/mate maybe it helps. |
