I'm also having problems with an chrome chipset. So far I've only tested with a liveCD. lspci shows: VGA compatible controller [0300]: VIA Technologies, Inc. CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome 9 HC] [1106:3371] (rev 01) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) I'm not getting the artefacts that the OP is getting, but the screen is rendering in slow motion and I notice that compiz is maxing out the CPU much of the time. Trying to do anything with the PC is like the proverbial wading through molasses. I don't remember if I've run 12.10 on this machine, but 12.04 and previous versions have been fine. I suspect that the system has been defaulting to vesa. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1159398 Title: buggy openchrome driver renders desktop unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-openchrome/+bug/1159398/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

When I only start 'xinit', I still get the same exact issue, so from that I can deduct that this is most likely a problem with openchrome exclusively.

I would test other desktop environments to see if the issue is with Unity or the openchrome code. xfce would be a good test, since it is a basic, composited desktop. You can try installing xfce in your current environment by installing 'xfce4' package or use a Xubuntu LiveUSB/CD. If you're still having problems in xfce, then your best bet is to correspond with the openchrome devs on the openchrome mailing list. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1159398 Title: buggy openchrome driver renders desktop unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-openchrome/+bug/1159398/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected raring reproducible single-occurrence ubuntu ** Description changed: I'm having a serious graphics problem in Ubuntu 13.04. When the X starts up, I get a glitchy set of squares that turns red with a discolored overlay of what I should be seeing. I also see no cursor whatsoever. Using lspci I got this for my video card: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. CN700/P4M800 Pro/P4M800 CE/VN800 Graphics [S3 UniChrome Pro] (rev 01) Additional Details: Openchrome has worked perfectly up until this release of Ubuntu 13.04 and assuming latest release of openchrome. What I am guessing is my video card is having problems with GLX, though there doesn't seem to be any easy way to disable it (which is something I shouldn't have to do in the first place). The little bit of what you're *supposed* to see is also updating at an unnervingly low framerate, furthing my suspicion that it's a serious problem with acceleration. It takes a while for the (glitchy) display to appear in the first place. It didn't (thankfully) keep me from switching consoles. The boot splash is show in text-mode only (this specific anomaly has happed in previous releases though strangly on on the live session) Please see if you can fix this or forward this to someone who can see what they can do.

Kyle, thanks for getting the info. If you could get an Xorg log showing what happens when you start with openchrome, that would be ideal. What I would do is start X with openchrome, switch to console, save the log and go back to sing VESA. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1159398 Title: buggy openchrome driver renders desktop unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-openchrome/+bug/1159398/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
