Yes, the patch in comment #7 is only a workaround but that might be as good as it gets while no developer ever has access to the hardware.
Please reformat the gdm3 patch with more details about what's being fixed, and then: 1. Attach a patch for Ubuntu 18.10, and subscribe 'ubuntu-sponsors'. 2. When the fix (workaround) has been released to 18.10 then we can start on the SRU process to get the fix into 18.04 (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1780076 Title: 18.04 login screen is skewed/distorted (incorrect stride) when using hibmc_drm graphics Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu: New Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: New Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Upstream: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/219 We found the login screen is blur, with Huawei's chip. 05:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
