            Bug ID: 64661
           Summary: udl causes blank screen
           Product: Drivers
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 3.11.6+
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Video(DRI - non Intel)
          Assignee: drivers_video-dri@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: jason@schulz.name
        Regression: No

Using the modesetting driver for X, udl no longer outputs a video signal.  This
behavior is present in at least 3.11.6, and 3.12.0.  The last known version the
behavior was what I would normally expect was 3.10.17.

Please reproduce the bug from a boot without ever loading the Nvidia driver. If
you can still reoproduce it then can you update the bug and confirm the adapter
in use and what it is connected to (eg is this a panel with USB connector or an
adapter to a monitor ?)

Can't recreate the identical symptom using either nouveau/intel/udl or even
intel/udl, which would seem to suggest it isn't actually a bug in udl or even
modesetting in general.

There are bugs with nouveau and intel, but the symptoms are obviously different
and I'm guessing I should file seperate bug reports.

Later versions of either the nvidia drivers or kernel have fixed this problem.

What versions of the nVidia driver and kernel do you have this working with?
I've been trying to resolve the same problem. 

I get the same message in dmesg indicating from udl that the swiotlb buffer is
full. Here's the relevant dmesg.debug from my machine:

I am currently using version 4.3.3 of the kernel and 358.16 for nvidia drivers.
 However this started working correctly somewhere in 3.x.x and/or with a much
earlier version of the nvidia drivers.

IIRC, an earlier kernel update resolved that specific issue.  The kernel
sources I'm using are Gentoo/Funtoo.

FWIW, I'm currently experiencing this issue, using a 4.3.3 kernel and nvidia
drivers 358.16. I am on Arch, just as the previous reporter, so this could
possibly be due to either a patch that arch is using or fixed due to a patch
that gentoo is.

For now, I've been using the nouveau drivers. udl does not have this problem
when using nouveau.
