Bug ID: 51891 Summary: Nvidia: repeated device probes + Xorg log flood Product: Wine Version: 6.16 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: alecov@mail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 70837 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=70837 Nvidia driver messages
When running basically *any* app (for example, Wine's notepad.exe), I am receiving a log spam in Xorg.0.log from the Nvidia driver (see attachment; the messages repeat endlessly).
This happens in various situations and most reliably when moving the mouse cursor in the menu bar area (the messages repeat for *every single pixel* moved).
I've researched about these messages and it seems the Nvidia driver issues those messages whenever an X client probes for available devices using eg. xrandr: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/x-server-with-loaded-nvidia-driver-spa...
It could be a problem with the driver, but since this issue only happens with Wine, I believe Wine could be at fault. Besides the log flood, Wine completely hogs the X server when running on dual monitors (presumably due to the repeated device probes), so it is impossible to run Wine with an external monitor connected via HDMI in this scenario.
Running on ArchLinux (x86_64), kernel 5.14.12.
Video card: NVIDIA Corporation GM107GLM [Quadro M1200 Mobile] (rev a2) Driver version: 470.74-8
Wine version 6.16, but also occurs on compiled Wine from Git.

Looks like so. Not sure though, I'm not having issues with wine 6.22 + nvidia 495.44 anymore.
Closing and marking as duplicate to avoid noise.

--- Comment #4 from alecov@mail.com --- This started happening again with nvidia drivers later than 495.44.
These drivers are problematic in other regards as well (for example: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/x-server-1-21-1-1-crash-on-startx-with...)
Now I'm willing to believe that this is actually nvidia's fault somewhat, but it is still worth a look from the Wine dev team, since only Wine programs trigger this kind of behavior.
[Nvidia f*ck*ng s*cks, it's all so tiresome. Sorry for the rant.]
So, to summarize: - 495.44 works; - 495.46 and later: this bug happens.
Cheers.
