Your system information

  • Steam client version (build number or date):
    image

  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Ubuntu 18.04

  • Graphics driver version (run nvidia-settings): 396.51

  • Gist for SteamVR System Information: https://gist.github.com/leinardi/1f2a996f024ecb98e7db555ec51739a0

  • Opted into Steam client beta?: Yes

  • Opted into SteamVR beta?: Yes

  • Have you checked for system updates?: Yes

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Starting SteamVR makes my PC completely unresponsive. I can hear the audio in background but the video is almost completely frozen with the mouse cursor skipping position every couple of seconds.

I tried to completely uninstall SteamVR (I have also deleted the local folder). It happens with both beta and stable branch.

On this same hardware I was able to run SteamVR some time ago.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Start Steam
  2. Start SteamVR

I managed to get a system report: https://gist.github.com/leinardi/cdfea3af86839debe69f9f914701e757

I'm having identical symptoms to this on Arch. I had a Twitch video up as a test and the playback continued fine, audio was going the entire time but the display (including mouse) were completely frozen, coming to life for split seconds at a time. After a while it seems SteamVR gave up on rebooting and the system returned to stability and the headset was in sleep mode.

I'm using Nvidia 396.54 on a GTX 1080, but I've also had this over this year dating at least back to the Nvidia 390 drivers, the last time I actually had this working was last year with 387 drivers.

Can you check your journalctl to see if you're also getting errors like this?

Same here.

After starting SteamVR I see this inside my journalctl:

I think you are into something with this "Idling display engine timed out".

Same issue on AMD RX Vega on Ubuntu 18.04 with 4.18.4-steamvr-generic kernel, not certain on message output, will try to get journalctl using another machine over ssh later.
Display completely freezes, aside from the mouse cursor. It happens even faster on the SteamVR beta than normal SteamVR

VVash63 2018-09-04 github

Interesting, if this is happening on Radeon that rules out driver issues. I wonder if this is something to do with X11 or kernel updates?

Lleinardi 2018-09-04 github

Display completely freezes, aside from the mouse cursor

@Pyrarrows is your mouse moving normally or, like for me and @Vash63, is just coming to life for split seconds at a time?

PPyrarrows 2018-09-05 github

The mouse cursor moves smoothly, I have noticed no jerkeyness.

Here's my journalctl when I run SteamVR

@Pyrarrows Sounds like possibly a different issue, although that 'ring gfx timeout' at the end does seem like quite the coincidence for two different driver stacks to both be crashing and timing out. Maybe with the radeonsi drivers it's still able to update the mouse position even during the timeout?

Anyway enough speculation on my part, I really don't know anything about the drivers or SteamVR stack outside of an administrator perspective. I'm glad it's happening on Ubuntu also though and not just an Arch problem.

VVash63 2018-09-23 github

Just upgraded to an RTX 2080 and I can no longer reproduce this. Can any Nvidia users having this issue try again on the new 410 series Nvidia drivers? Wondering if this was fixed for everyone or just some hardware quirk.

Rryao 2018-10-04 github

@leinardi I cannot reproduce this. Try installing 396.54.06 or newer.

@ryao SteamVR crashes my computer every time I launch it as well. Here is my post on the issue (Using ubuntu 18.04) https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamVR-for-Linux/issues/146

Update: I got SteamVR working again by going back to original BIOS settings, but now am getting a 306 error

Lleinardi 2018-10-16 github

@ryao sorry for the delay but the updated nvidia drivers were pushed only some days ago on the official graphics driver PPA.

I can confirm that on 410.57 I don't have the issue anymore. I still have to try on 396.54.06.

VVash63 2018-11-26 github

If it's fixed with newer Nvidia drivers you should probably close this bug. At very least that confirms it is not a SteamVR issue.

I have amd gpu @Vash63

running steam beta with steamvr beta here on an up2date 5.2.9-arch1-1-fsync arch system with a RTX 2080 and i7-8700 and a htc vice and since some days I have the exact same freezes on my machine. everything else works as it did before.
the crash is good to trigger with:

  1. start steam
  2. then(!) poweron lighthouses (I use sonoff wifi devices to power them on via amazon dash button)
  3. then start steamvr
    chances are very high that this freezes the whole machine, before the steamvr windows opens
    systemlog always show a crash with a nvidia-modeset: ERROR: GPU:0: Idling display engine timed out
    so probably this is nvidia-drivers related (nvidia-dkms-430.40-5 - haven't tried others)
    when the lighthouses are already enabled when booting chances are far better that steamvr will work:
  4. start steam with powered-on lighthouses
  5. start steamvr -> (probably) play

I also reverted steam and streamvr back to stable, which didn't fix the issue.

Ffrostworx 2019-08-23 github

hmm, just have seen my own reference from https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamVR-for-Linux/issues/163
maybe this is (again?) xfce4 related? afaik it got several updates recently
if so, I'll report back. ForceFullCompositionPipeline is still disabled here btw

Ffrostworx 2019-08-23 github

I was able to start steamvr with and without pre-powered-on lighthouses on lxqt and mate.
but it froze when I enabled steamvr-home, which I disabled during tests. so not unlikely that steamvr home freezes the system an not the DE

One thing to confirm when you get a system "freeze" is the extent. Audio still playing for example would be different from a kernel panic. You can likely recover from a stall by either waiting ~5 minutes for the GPU to reset and hope everything recovers or kill off GPU processes.

There many bugs across different projects all exhibiting the same kinds of stalls. A lot of times it's a browser or window manager that never fully recover. Steam has a fairly short fuse once the GPU resets. Almost too short.

Sslackerbob 2020-07-08 github

I was having this same issue, until I turned off "Force Full Composition Pipeline" in nvidia settings. #210

It hasn't crashed since this change.

Ppurran23 2020-07-14 github

I had this issue with and without SteamVR beta. It worked the first time after installing steamvr i could play and everything but not after that.
But I run a 3 monitor setup with 2 1080p and one 1440p monitor. I disabled all but the main monitor and SteamVR has worked since then.
Hope this can help in any way.

Nothing extracted yet.
