[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1776642] Re: Temporal dithering started appearing on Intel HD 530 graphics

2018-06-24 Thread Patrick Wigmore
Concurrent with the temporal dithering, I have also noticed general poor
graphical performance with the affected kernels. E.g. 50fps and 60fps
video playback is choppy, sometimes slow redraw and other graphical
glitches on UI elements. Like the temporal dithering, these additional
problems disappear if I revert to 4.13.0-41.

** Description changed:

  I am experiencing a regression in linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 with
  Intel HD Graphics 530 (Core i5-6600T), starting in 4.13.0-43
  (considering only kernels which appear in my GRUB menu).
  
  Some form of spatio-temporal dithering has been enabled. This is causing
  a shimmering effect and visible dithering patterns (like woven textile)
  which are noticeable on photographs and areas of similar colour. 1px
  borders in the UI can appear to have a "marching ants" effect.
  
  The effect is visible both under Xorg and in a virtual console
  (Ctrl+Alt+F1), if the displayed colours are suitable to trigger it.
  
  Booting 4.13.0-41 eliminates the temporal dithering.
  
- This occurs on a (presumed) 6bpp laptop LCD panel, so dithering is necessary, 
but in previous kernels only a form of spatial dithering is applied, which is 
less visually obvious.

I can confirm that the temporal dithering is present when running
mainline kernel 4.17.0-041700-generic.

2018-06-13 Thread Joseph Salisbury
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v4.17 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as
"Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.
