[Bug 1850635] Re: Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly when using xserver-xorg-video-intel
Though the modesetting driver should only exhibit screen tearing if either: * using multiple monitors; or * using fractional scaling. Both of those can be avoided by logging into "Ubuntu on Wayland". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1850635 Title: Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly when using xserver-xorg-video-intel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1850635/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yes, screen tearing in the modesetting driver is a known problem (bug 1846398) but is off topic for this bug. ** Summary changed: - Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly + Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly when using xserver-xorg-video-intel ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => New ** No longer affects: fvwm (Ubuntu) ** No longer affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1850635 Title: Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly when using xserver-xorg-video-intel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1850635/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1850635] Re: Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly
Having tried the "modesetting" driver for a while, I find it suffers from severe screen tearing, which makes it practically unusable. I prefer the half-broken intel driver! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1850635 Title: Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fvwm/+bug/1850635/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1850635] Re: Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly
Thank you for the reply. Changing the driver in xorg.conf from "intel" to "modesetting" fixed the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1850635 Title: Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fvwm/+bug/1850635/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1850635] Re: Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly
You seem to be using FVWM and the old Intel driver (not the current one). So I would try eliminating those as possible causes. 1. Does the bug also occur in Gnome Shell Xorg sessions? (log into 'Ubuntu') 2. Please edit or move or delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf so that Xorg does not load the 'intel' driver. We would prefer it to load the newer 'modeset' driver. ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => xorg-server (Ubuntu) ** Also affects: fvwm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: fvwm (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1850635 Title: Some applications don't redraw their windows correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fvwm/+bug/1850635/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
