The same artifacts appear for a short time with rc6 + some commits as well, but there then X.org is available again. 2437fccfbfc83bcb868ccc7fdfe2b5310bf07835 – thats rc6 + some commits – works, while exactly rc7 does not. No bisection tried so far. Maybe tomorrow. It shouldn´t be that many attempts and kernel compiles are fast on the ThinkPad T520 with Intel i5 Sandybridge + integrated graphics – no NVidia – + Intel SSD 320 where this happens. No other machines tested so far. Kernel configuration available if desired.
