Nouveau errors (MMIO write FAULT) and usb string descriptor malformed

Here's a bit of system information that's useful:
- My laptop uses Optimus between the CPU (4700MQ) and the GPU (NVIDIA 770M)
- I'm currently running Manjaro (blasphemy, I know) using the non-free NVIDIA drivers with bumblebee for Optimus (which works very well)
I'm going to move to Arch from Manjaro, but there seem to be a few issues with my boot process (even on the USB drive).
I get these errors on boot of Arch (taken from dmesg --level=err):

Also in the warnings (only the nouveau entry):
[ 2.522096] nouveau W[ DRM] voltage table 0x50 unknown
Clearly, the nouveau errors come from the open source drivers, but I'm not sure what's causing them. The warning about the voltage table comes before the errors, which is interesting. On my Manjaro installation, I couldn't get the open source drivers to work with bumblebee, so switched to the non-free NVIDIA drivers which ended the errors (since nouveau isn't loaded), and then I could run processes on the GPU with Optimus. Clearly, my reference here is Manjaro, but the errors persist between both.
As for the string descriptor 0 malformed, I have no clue. This happens both on Arch and Manjaro, however it hasn't cause any specific issue, but it is something I have to look at on my boot up, which isn't nice.
Can anyone guess as to the source of the errors?
EDIT: Here is the output of "dmesg | grep nouveau" which gives all the nouveau output during boot: http://pastebin.com/wQiuwApk

  • Search and Replace String throwing the wrong error message with regexp?

    This came up in a LAVA thread, and I'm not sure if there's a bug here or not. When using Search and Replace string, and using a regular expression of [(G[b|i])], LabVIEW throws error -4622, "There is an unmatched parenthesis in a regular expression."  There are obviously no unmatched parenthesis in that expression, so it seems to me that the wrong error is being thrown. I'm just not sure if that's a syntactically valid regexp. The problem seems to be with nesting [ ]'s inside ( )'s inside [ ]'s. I've tried a couple of regexp resources on the Web, and one suggests it's valid, while the other seems to think it isn't.

    I think your regexp is invalid.
    In regexps, brackets are not the same as parentheses.  Parens are for grouping, while brackets are for matching one of a class of characters.  Brackets can not be nested.
    If the regexp is replaced with [G[bi]], there is no error, so it's not a matter of nested brackets. I couldn't find anything on the PCRE man page that forbids nested brackets specifically, but it makes sense.
    Your expression "[(G[bi])]", therefore parses as a character class which matches '(', 'G', '[', 'b', or 'i' followed by an unmatched paren, and an unmatched bracket.
    I don't believe that's the case. Replace the regexp with [(Gbi)], and the error goes away. So it's not a matter of the '(' being literal, and then encountering a ')' without a matching '('.
    daveTW wrote:
    what string exactly you want to replace? I think the round braces are not right in this case, since they mark partial matches which are given back by "match regular expression". But you don't want to extract parts of the string, you want to replace them (or delete, with empty <replace string>). So if you leave the outer [( ... )] then your RegEx means all strings with either "Gb" or "Gi".
    It's not my regular expression. A poster at LAVA was having problems with one of his (a truly frightening one), and this seemed to be the element that was causing the problem. I'm pretty sure that the originator of the regexp meant to use G(b|i), which seems like a complicated way of matching "Gb" or "Gi", if you ask me.

    Hello Maxayla,
    It sounds like you are getting error code 1 when you were attempting a restore. I would use these troubleshooting steps from the following article which mentions that error code:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694#1
    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,

  • My Mac OS X 10.4.11 will not write DVDs and gets error code 0x80020022, what is wrong?

    My Mac OS X 10.4.11 will not write DVDs and gets error code 0x80020022, what is wrong?

    That code is not really useful since it just means it can't write DVD's (or probably CD's).  The only thing you can do is first to try a different brand of DVD's, higher quality.  You could also try burning at a slower speed.
    Based on the fact that you are using an OSX that's no long supported, there's probably not much you can do to correct this issue if it is software related.  You may also have a failing Super Drive, another consequence of an older Mac.

  • Tried synching iphone for the first time on new PC and got error followed by itunes logo and USB cable picture. No idea what went wrong and now phone is in this screen locked. please help!

    tried synching iphone for the first time on new PC and got error followed by itunes logo and USB cable picture. No idea what went wrong and now phone is in this screen locked. please help!

    I tried connecting to iTunes and neither the PC nor iTunes recognizes the device. I went through all the troubleshooting on the Apple website for this issue and nothing worked. I've reinstalled iTunes, the driver, everything and still can't get either the PC or iTunes to recognize the phone.  I don't know what else to do :-( any help or suggestions are highly appreciated!
    I would hate to have lost all my info, especially contacts and calendar items since I have no idea what was backed up prior to the phone getting locked on this screen. I've been told that my only option is to go to the phone carrier and they will reset it for me, but that means it will wipe out all the info.
    I hope someone has a fix other than that one.

    On upgrading iPhone 4 to ios 6 using iTunes, it returned an unknown error then froze completely with the iTunes icon and USB connector on the screen.  Reset didn't work.  iTunes doesn't recognize the devise anymore.

    if your computer is not recognizing it, try using a different USB port or different usb cable. if that doesnt work you will need to uninstall and reinstall itunes.

  • Satellite C660-1ZM Win 7 64bit: mousepad and USB - "code 52" driver error

    Hello,
    Having recently set up a new Satellite C660-1ZM running Windows 7 64bit (upgraded from Home Premium to Ultimate) for a friend, the mousepad and USB ports have suddenly stopped working. The drivers show an exclamation mark against them and the error is "code 52" which is related to driver signing. Windows doesn't seem to recognise the driver signatures for the published drivers that came on the machine's pre-installed disc, so the devices don't work. I've updated the drivers (Intel chipset [which includes USB]; Synaptics touchpad) to the latest ones publised on the Toshiba web site - and we have the same problem.
    Pressing F8 on boot allows you to select "disable checking of driver signing" in the WIndows 7 boot options, which then enables the drivers and all is well, until you reboot - at which point you have to hit F8 again.
    I think that one of the many recent Windows updates has somehow messed things up, but we can't easily prove that. The machine worked fine for a week or so, then the mousepad suddenly quit working around 8th August 2012.
    1) Are there valid signed drivers that pass whatever checks Microsoft impose on driver signing, including whatever checks they've potentially just imposed via some recently inflicted update?
    2) Does anyone know exactly how to disable the checking of driver signing permanently, so that a reboot will not require the F8 keypress and so on?
    Uninstalling the mousepad driver and rebooting gives the basic mouse functionality, without the Synaptics cleverness. However, the USB ports still don't work because their driver doesn't load, so an external mouse doesn't work.
    It's an infernal nusiance. Driving the system off the keyboard to uninstall drivers etc. is not much fun.
    Cheers, Colin.

    Hi
    Did you receive the error that windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device? Usually this means the error code 52
    Since the USB drivers are parts of the Windows OS, I dont think that this could be an signature issue I think some files are damaged.
    Try to uninstalling/reinstalling the driver and deleting the device and its drivers from device manager before reinstalling.
    Usually this should help, if not, well try to repair the system.
    Power up the unit and press F8. Then choose Repair my Computer.
    Now choose the first option which would help to repair the system.

I can use the new drive successfully. However it seems i can not have window update manually so I am concerned if this is the mian point to create this issue.
    Any HP technicians can help here?

    No. There is no need to go to a command line and there aren't any DOS commands that will help. 
    You should consider using Windows system restore to return your notebook's operating system to a date before this issue began. Choose a restore point dated before the problem surfaced.Use the search charm and type in restore. Choose create a restore point. The System Properties window will appear. Click on System Restore as seen in the following image.
    Make certain the show me more restore points option has a checkmark in the box. Choose the restore point that you want and then click on next. This is safe and reversible.
