Title:
chromium-browser: intermittent display glitch when more than 1 window
open
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
When using Chromium, and there's 2 or more windows open, an
intermittent hardware glitch is triggered, as if the screen was
divided into a small quadrant grid, and these quadrants were
horizontally and vertically skewed & degraded into particles.
The glitch happens in a 1/4-second, at random intervals between
events.
OS: Ubuntu 18.04 / elementaryOS 5.1.3
Processor: Intel i5 540M (ThinkPad laptop)
Video: NVidia NVS 3100M (using proprietary driver 340.108)
Chromium version: 80.0.3987.163 (Build oficial) Built on Ubuntu
It only happens in Chromium or Chrome, since version 70+.
Firefox does not exhibit this behavior.
Logging out from the user session and logging back in and reopening
Chromium/Chrome makes the triggered glitch disappear.
