It has been a long long time I am following this bug. So, I built the 3.10.3 plain vanilla kernel, which went stable as of today (Friday, July 26, 2013) and I can say that my crappy GM45 chip works fine with the dreaded "test.odg" resizing test. Seems like things are improving.
and if it is of any interest here are the versions of relevant sw stack: x11-libs/libdrm-2.4.45 media-libs/mesa-9.1.2-r1 x11-base/xorg-server-1.13.4 x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.21.12 (sna is the Accel) thanks for continous work on devices that were introduced in 2008. ps: now, only if iwlwifi would get sorted out... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1098334 Title: [gen4 sna] Font corruption in Chromium tab bar Status in X.org xf86-video-intel: In Progress Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After enabling the SNA acceleration method and rebooting, I noticed that graphical glitches appeared in the letters on Chromium's tab bar during the mouse hover animation.
