Performance Issues and 'Failed to grab modeset ownership' Error with NVIDIA Driver

Hello everyone,

I am experiencing significant performance issues on my Manjaro system, especially when opening, moving, minimizing, and closing windows. Additionally, I am seeing the following error in the logs:

Log Output (journalctl -p 3 -xb)

jun 14 19:00:42 4k (udev-worker)[462]: event13: Failed to call EVIOCSKEYCODE with scan code 0x7c, and key code 190: Invalid argument
jun 14 19:00:43 4k kernel: 
jun 14 19:00:58 4k kernel: [drm:drm_new_set_master] *ERROR* [nvidia-drm] [GPU ID 0x00000100] Failed to grab modeset ownership
jun 14 19:00:58 4k org_kde_powerdevil[1817]: busno=5, sleep-multiplier =  1,30. Testing for supported feature 0x10 returned Error_Info[EIO in ddc_write_read_with_retry, causes: EIO]

Steps Attempted

  1. System and Driver Updates:

    • Updated the system and NVIDIA drivers to the latest versions.
  2. Reinstall NVIDIA Drivers:

    • Removed and reinstalled NVIDIA drivers.
  3. GRUB and Xorg Configurations:

    • Tested various options in GRUB (nomodeset, nvidia-drm.modeset=1).
    • Adjusted settings in the nvidia.conf file.
  4. Test Different Kernels:

    • Installed and tested different kernels.
  5. Disable and Adjust KDE Compositor:

    • Tried different rendering options (XRender, OpenGL) and disabled VSync.

When I disable the compositor by pressing Alt + Shift + F12, the performance issues are resolved.

Interesting.
Have you disabled the iGPU through BIOS?

I have checked the BIOS settings, and it seems like the integrated GPU is disabled. Here is a photo of the BIOS settings I currently have:

  • IGFX Multi-Monitor: Disabled
  • Primary Video Device: PCIe Video

It looks like the iGPU is indeed disabled based on these settings, but I’m not entirely sure if this is the correct configuration.

Have you PEG Graphics ?

After extensive research, it appears that there is an issue with KDE when used with Wayland and the current NVIDIA drivers. I found several mentions of this issue in different forums and bug reports. One specific example is the bug reported here: Bug 487728.

In the report, one of the KDE developers comments: “I looked into this, and it’s hanging in the NVidia driver, which waits for KWin to release a buffer that will only be released once the window is shown. This will need to be fixed in the driver.”
