No, this is **NOT** an nVidia (or any driver) problem (emphasis because the common misconception seems to be that it is an nVidia/ATI/AMD proprietary driver issue, even I shared this misconception before looking at the code). It is a problem with the implementation of the Bresenham (bres for short) line drawing algorithm. I am not sure how the other drivers get around this problem. My assumption (and if I recall correct I may have even tested this) is that they do not call the code in question at all. I'm guessing that they implement the line draw on the graphics chip or something and therefore override this problematic code.

This problem exists at least with Nvidia drivers, Vmware and Virtual Box. And it doesn't exist in a fresh Ubuntu 12.04 with xorg server 1.11 using the same drivers. Other people found the same issues, so I think it's a general thing. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1152840 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfwm4/+bug/1043575/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
