[Bug 1626935] Re: [Yakkety] desktop in black background on extended HDMI display
Workarounds: (a) Plug your monitor in before logging in; or (b) Kill and restart nautilus. Given that the desktop selection rectangle still works while the black/flickering is happening around it, it appears the only thing that's broken is nautilus' wallpaper logic. ** Summary changed: - [Yakkety] desktop in black background on extended HDMI display + [yakkety] desktop is black and/or flickering after plugging in a second monitor ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Sebastien Bacher (seb128) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1626935 Title: [yakkety] desktop is black and/or flickering after plugging in a second monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1626935/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Also not a compiz bug. The problem still happens if I replace compiz with metacity. ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1626935 Title: [Yakkety] desktop in black background on extended HDMI display To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1626935/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

yeah I moved it to mesa until I've verified with the older version, and it's still happening even with -intel + mesa 11.2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1626935 Title: [Yakkety] desktop in black background on extended HDMI display To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1626935/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 1626935] Re: [Yakkety] desktop in black background on extended HDMI display
Well I used to maintain compiz so have a rough idea. The desktops is just a window from nautilus that is composited by compiz. The bug probably lays between those. Not Mesa. ** Changed in: mesa (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1626935 Title: [Yakkety] desktop in black background on extended HDMI display To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1626935/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Someone who knows better how the background is drawn on unity/compiz should probably comment what changed. With -intel X driver it's still the same, so defaulting to modeset X driver didn't cause this. ** Also affects: compiz (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => mesa (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1626935 Title: [Yakkety] desktop in black background on extended HDMI display To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1626935/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
