Title:
Screen corruption observed randomly
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
I am using nouveau driver to drive a ViewSonic LCD display that has HD
resolution (1920x1080) on this computer. On random occasion, usually
after unlocking a screen saver, the screen will look corrupt.
Symptoms:
1) desktop background is always corrupted
2) Letters from some fonts would become garbled.
To work around (1), I could restart nautilus. But for the other
symptom, I don't know.
Background:
I originally installed this when I had a different external display
(and I was using proprietary nvidia driver included in Ubuntu 10.04
LTS). The original resolution was 1600x1024. But with the higher
resolution, the proprietary driver was not adequate (it would not even
show anything beyond 1280x1024, I believe?), so I had to give it up
and use the (apparently unstable) nouveau driver.
Is this bug resolved somewhere else? If so I would like to know which
version.
Feel free to ask me more question.
