 Bug description:
 Binary package hint: xorg-driver-fglrx

 When using the proprietary ati driver that is in the hardy repository with
 compiz (using aiglx and not xgl), the opengl rendering is buggy :

there is lots of blinking and every opengl window has an allways on top
 attribute that makes them (because of the blinking) visible half of the
 time.

 I tried it with the hardy repository doing an upgrade from gutsy to hardy
 using aptitude dist-upgrade.

 I have an amd64 installation

2009-09-04 Thread Bryce Harrington
The original reporter of this bug reported it against a ATI
Technologies Inc RS485 [Radeon Xpress 1100 IGP].  AMD no longer
supports this card, thus this bug report is no longer valid.

I closed this bug with the 8.600 upload because the hardware is no
longer supported with that release.  'WONTFIX' would have been more
accurate but there's no way for the launchpad stuff to distinguish
between fixed and wontfix in changelog entries.

Anyway, I can't reproduce this problem on hd2600 or hd4850 on karmic
with 8.66 so guess whatever the issue was is gone now, for the hardware
AMD actually still supports.  Hopefully for everyone else -ati is
working okay or if not that you have bug reports for your issues opened
against that package instead.

Thanks! This problem exists already for three releases, and nothing is done to 
it! I had loads of problems on my previous computer with an Nvidia card, so 
when I bought a new Dell I insisted on an expensive ATI card.  
Result: these problems.
I really am a Linux fan, but this issue disappoints me deeply, esp. the way it 
was treated till now!
Maybe it has something to do with the AMD 64 bits architecture. The whole world 
convinced my that this architecture was much better, so now a lot of software I 
can't install, because it is the wrong architecture!

Hello,
I do not think this is related to the AMD64 architecture.
However, ATI has been bought by AMD and it cannot be said that they have been 
working seriously on this problem.
Nvidia graphic cards have a much better reputation than ATI cards from the 
drivers point of view - see some comments above: Successfully changed ATI to 
nVidia. I am about to do so... hope this helps!

2009-05-01 Thread PowerUser
As for me, AMD has *stopped* supporting my ATI x1300 card in their
recent proprietary drivers. Including these used in Ubuntu.

Big thanks, AMD! I always suspected I can't really trust to anything
proprietary without getting backstabbed at some point, sooner or later.
AMD has proven these worries were correct.

On other side, now Ubuntu uses open source driver for these ATI cards by
default and playback over Xv using this driver is far superior to
proprietary AMD stuff, as well as 2D performanse became much faster when
compiz enabled. Hence, I no longer have any moron blinking with compiz
even when playing video over Xv. However, this driver quite slow in some
3D stuff (but performs great with Compiz) and in some 3D-intense games
like Nexuiz it could even lock-up. If you do not need decent 3D to play
Nexuiz or similar games, it could be a good way to go.

Videos with totem show complete black or blinking.

2009-04-26 Thread cenora
I have 2 laptops:

One Lenovo Thinkpad R61 (with Nvidia graphics card) and a Fujitsu Siemens
Esprimo Mobile (with integrated intel graphics card).

I did a fresh Jaunty install on both machines and installed Google Earth.
The Nvidia PC runs smooth, the Intel doesn't.

Micro Müeller explains what happens in detail in the original BUG report for
this problem:


   - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/162541


Summary: Wait for DRI2.

Full description from Müeller:

Every OpenGL-based application running under compiz (and being driven by
OpenSource Xorg-drivers or ATI's flgrx) will yield rendering glitches as
described, because the drivers in question are all still based on DRI and
not DRI2. What DRI lacks and DRI2 introduces - among other things - is
hw-accelerated indirect rendering. This affects composited window-managers
(like compiz) mostly. Currently with DRI the DRM does not care if the
desktop is composited or not and just hands any OpenGL-app, that asks for a
rendering-context to draw to, a pointer to the front-buffer. Thus the
OpenGL-app happy starts drawing to the front-buffer, ignoring the fact that
there might be a compositing manager running and it should rather render to
an off-screen area and let the compositing-manager do the work of blitting
the OpenGL-apps window-contents to the front-buffer. DRI2 is more
intelligent in that regard in fixes this.

All that is overly simplified of course, but should give an idea about what
is going on under the hood.

On nvidia (using the proprietary driver) one does not run into this issue
because nvidia does not use any form of DRI but their own infrastructure,
which happens to have hw-accelerated indirect rendering for some time now.
If one would be so bold to use the OpenSource nouveau-driver, they'd see the
same rendering glitches. But nouveau will of course also switch to DRI2.

Over time all OpenSource Xorg-video-driver will switch to DRI2 of course. It
will take time. The first driver that is pretty far in development to adapt
to DRI2, is the intel-video driver (for i915, i945 and i965 that should work
already). Second in line will probalby be the OpenSource radeon-driver (the
one without HD in the name).

Cenora

 Chris Roddy, are you having trouble with 3D or video? I think the issues
 with 3D aren't yet fixed:

 1. Running glxgears, if I rotate the desktop cube, the window border moves
 with the desktop, but the gears themselves stay in the same spot on the
 screen.
 2. Running glchess from gnome-games package, when switching to 3D-View,
 there is a lot of blinking and switching back to 2D mode.

 But I think that's probably a different bug. Can someone point me the
 appropriate bug report?

 When using the proprietary ati driver that is in the hardy repository with 
 compiz (using aiglx and not xgl), the opengl rendering is buggy :
 
 there is lots of blinking and every opengl window has an allways on top

Shouldn't this bug be marked as a duplicate of #96991? AMD seems to only
be tracking it as a feature similar to what NVidia's driver does, making
up for the original X design issue. Also, #96991 is nearly fixed, so
once that is done, this would be too.

2009-01-17 Thread Zombywuf
Another bump for this issue in 8.04. Under compiz *all* rendering is
corrupted, video, OpenGL and regular compiz effects. It's as if the
screen is split along the diagonal from the top left to bottom right and
only one half of the screen on either side of this diagonal updates on
any given painting of the screen. This causes a diagonal tear when, for
example, dragging windows. For OpenGL and video the effect is more
pronounced due the side not being rendered being blanked rather, this
results in a terrible flicker.

Confirming flickering video, ATI Radeon HD 4670, AMD Athlon X2 @2.7GHz,
4GB RAM, x86_64.  Tweaking video players resolves issue; new 9.1 RC2
drivers do *not*.

Why is this such a big issue for ATI to get over?  It isn't like their
Windows drivers have this issue, nor is it like NVIDIA shows that they
have this issue.

Gotta say, I'm not looking forward to waiting for DRI2, and only God
really knows when that's coming out.

Disable Compiz (System  Preferences  Appearance  Visual Effects 
None).  Alternatively, if video is the only thing bothering you, change
your preferences in your video player to output via x11.

 change your preferences in your video player to output via x11.

An earlier comment here explained how to do that in various video players:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/179042/comments/25

This is really just a work-around, not a real fix, though.

Basically, this is an AMD/ATI problem, because AMD/ATI doesn't properly
support the development of full-featured open-source drivers for their
video adapters--even though they once appeared to promise that they
would: see http://www.linux.com/feature/119049

We're, in effect, being held hostage by AMD/ATI; only they can resolve
this mess. NVIDIA isn't any better, by the way; I decided to dump them
because of the annoying bugs in their binary-only drivers, and because
of the apparent promise from AMD/ATI.

In fact, the only vendor that seems to properly support open-source
drivers for its graphics hardware, is Intel. My only computer that
doesn't need a proprietary driver for its video adapter, is a Dell
Studio 17 laptop--which has an Intel graphics chip built in.
Unfortunately, there aren't any separate Intel graphics adapter cards
available; if and when good Intel graphics cards (with full-featured
open-source Linux drivers) ever became available, I'd rush out and buy
one--No wait, I'd buy at least five!

Xorg.0.log seems to be generated at Xorg startup only, so it doesn't

there's a Hardy Repository on a fresh Intrepid installation, I don't

That's true. How sad that fglrx support is so slow. I have been going
back and forth from ati bugzilla and launchpad and I still haven't
receive any positive feed back. It is quite good for me that my laptop
is old such that when I upgrade I would choose something that don't have
ati driver I think that would be the best solution for now.

[Bug 179042] Re: Videos tear and blink when enabling compiz [AMD Feature #7647] [EPR#257833]

2008-11-07 Thread barx
Ahhh I didn't check, but games like Glest, puet chess nor Frets on fire
works with desktop efects enabled or not. It's too sad. ;(  I would like
to send a screen in the last post, but I can't resize window I can't see
the option. The manner I can describe it that seems like the screen is
cutted in strips and pasted randomly.

So, add that bug for my last report that is not far from first

2008-11-06 Thread erlguta
Did anybody try to disable compiz and run to opengl apps at the same
time if the tearing and blinking still occurs? like maybe google earth
and glxgears without compiz?

Yes of course, and it works, but as you see in the title this is a
problem related with ATI (fglrx) and applications (3D, videoplayers...)
with compiz Enabled.

Today most of us can not live without the normal compiz effects enabled.

They are very useful to switch between applications and desktops and
have more productivity.

Wicked, I don't believe any version of -fglrx prior to the current one
will work against xserver 1.5.

2008-11-05 Thread Bryce Harrington
AMD has accepted this bug as EPR#257833.  As mentioned above, they
suspect it matches one of their feature development items.

Of course, it is certainly possible that some of the users duped to this
bug are actually seeing unrelated problems.  If you are certain what you
are seeing is something different than the original report, please feel
free to un-dupe or file a new bug against fglrx-installer.
