      there's a regression in the xf86-video-nouveau driver that came up
      in
      1.0.3 that causes the desktop to bounce around in virtualbox

      using HW acceleration in cinnamon and gnome 3, but not in fallback
      or
      cinnamon 2d, only happens in virtualbox and not the host, I've
      confirmed
      it was the graphics driver on the host because it happened with the
      1.0.3 driver but not the 1.0.2.
      anyone else having this problem? I'm using GeForce GTX 560 Ti

      Hi Pouar
      Can you open a bug, following these instructions [1]
      Ideally you can try bisecting the issue - there are only 10 changes
      that may have caused the issue
      Cheers

      by I just did I meant the bug report, not the bisecting, I have zero
      experience with driver programming, much less graphics driver
      programming, so I wouldn't know what to look for, I signed up for
      this mailing list to keep track of the different driver issues and
      bugs and their progress
You don't need to have any experience in driver programming to bisect this bug.

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/nouveau/xf86-video-nouveau/
cd xf86-video-nouveau/
./autogen.sh
make

If you can compile successfully, do:

1) git bisect start xf86-video-nouveau-1.0.3 xf86-video-nouveau-1.0.2
2) make && sudo rm /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nouveau_drv.so && sudo cp 
src/.libs/nouveau_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers
3) Restart X. Try to reproduce the bug.
4) If you can't reproduce it - do "git bisect good", if you can - do "git bisect 
bad".
5) Go to 2). After ~4 compiles it will tell you about first bad commit - this
is what we want to see.

Did the bisect today. Here's what I got:

297fd0d0755bda698be1d0b30cc60a41d7673c0b is the first bad commit
commit 297fd0d0755bda698be1d0b30cc60a41d7673c0b

    nouveau/dri2: fix pixmap/window offset calcs.

    This should fix prime rendering under kwin, and not break it under the
    others.
