[Bug 145604] Re: gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled
I am in the very same situation (gradual updates until final Gutsy release). I can think of two possible tests right now: 1. flush all compiz settings in order to revert to default setup (or even certain plugin(s) settings) 2. Switch to i810 driver instead of intel driver 3. upgrade or reinstall with a fresh Gutsy release CD I would rather take option (1) from the two above. Particular things to my machine: Dell laptop with Intel 945GM card using intel driver, 1280x1024 on CRT output, 1440x960 on LCD (with 915resolution). Let me know what other infos may be relevant in this context. -- gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 145604] Re: gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled
Hi Adrian Could you please create a new user, and with this clean environment try to reproduce this issue?, I've never experience this and don't really know what could be causing it, I'm just shooting in the dark here. I think it could be beneficial if you check this with normal/extra and custom desktop effects settings, and that way isolating the most probable culprit of this behavior. TJ if you could also try this, i would greatly appreciate.

[Bug 145604] Re: gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled
I can confirm that creating a new user fixes the problem. I have flushed all GNOME configuration files in my home directory and the problem has disappeared. I guess fixing up some or most of the ~/.gconf/apps/compiz/ hierarchy would resolve the problem. I have not tried yet Preferences / Advanced Desktop Settings (need compizconfig) / Preferences / Reset to Defaults , although I remember to have used it once in the past. -- gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 145604] Re: gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled
Thanks to Basilio's suggestion and Adrian's test with a new user profile I was spurred into investigating this some more. In System Preferences Advanced Desktop Effects Settings In the Utility section, disabling Resize Info disables the effect. With Resize Info enabled I played with the settings and discovered that what is happening is that the size info is beinf drawn as black text on a black background. As soon as I altered the 'Text Color' setting to a colour that contrasts with black, the characters are visible, although the inverted display looks 'kludgy' and not like it used to be. I've trawled through the changes just prior to the first time I noticed the issue for compiz-fusion-plugins-main and pango1.0-0, and been investigating cairo pango since the crux of the issue is in compiz-fusion-plugins-main/src/resizeinfo.c::updateTextLayer () where it does: cr = is-textLayer.cr; /* Clear the context. */ cairo_save (cr); cairo_set_operator (cr, CAIRO_OPERATOR_CLEAR); cairo_paint (cr); cairo_restore (cr); cairo_set_operator (cr, CAIRO_OPERATOR_OVER); asprintf (info, %d x %d, xv, yv); font = pango_font_description_new (); layout = pango_cairo_create_layout (is-textLayer.cr); pango_font_description_set_family (font,Sans); pango_font_description_set_absolute_size (font, 12 * PANGO_SCALE); pango_font_description_set_style (font, PANGO_STYLE_NORMAL); pango_font_description_set_weight (font, PANGO_WEIGHT_BOLD); pango_layout_set_font_description (layout, font); pango_layout_set_ellipsize (layout, PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_END); pango_layout_set_text (layout, info, -1); pango_layout_get_pixel_size (layout, w, h); cairo_move_to (cr, RESIZE_POPUP_WIDTH / 2.0f - w / 2.0f, RESIZE_POPUP_HEIGHT / 2.0f - h / 2.0f); pango_layout_set_width (layout, RESIZE_POPUP_WIDTH * PANGO_SCALE); pango_cairo_update_layout (cr, layout); cairo_set_source_rgba (cr, *(color) / (float)0x, *(color + 1) / (float)0x, *(color + 2) / (float)0x, *(color + 3) / (float)0x); pango_cairo_show_layout (cr, layout); pango_font_description_free (font); g_object_unref (layout); It could be that font description or something related to the drawing mode used is causing the background of the glyphs to be drawn in pango_cairo_show_layout(). It is possible this may end up being caused by a change in Pango or Cairo that somehow upsets Compiz. ** Also affects: compiz-fusion-plugins-main (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: compiz-fusion-plugins-main (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low Assignee: (unassigned) = TJ (intuitivenipple) Status: New = Confirmed -- gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 145604] Re: gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled
Adrian, are you using Gutsy x86 or x86_64 (AMD64) ? I'm wondering if this might be an issue to do with 32-bit vs 64-bit values. If you're using 32-bit though, we can scrub that line of investigation. -- gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi there sorry about the delay in the response, does this still happens, it has been a couple of upgrades since then and this issue could be solved by one of them. -- gnome-terminal resize legend displayed as blocks when Compiz is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
