[Bug 1210377] Re: Graphical corruption
The patch I mentioned in comment #6 is now also available in the upstream 3.12.7 kernel. A PPA of this kernel is available at kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/ and instructions on how to install and uninstall it are available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1210377 Title: Graphical corruption To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/1210377/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1210377] Re: Graphical corruption
Ian Nicholson, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding. Helpful bug reporting tips: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs ** Description changed: The corruption occurred on a fresh 13.04 install and persists after upgrade to 13.10.

The CCSM workaround has not resolved the problem. Unfortunately, whenever I install fglrx, lightdm appears to crash and I wind up with a black screen with a white cursor in the upper left corner of the screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1210377 Title: Graphical corruption To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/1210377/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1210377] Re: Graphical corruption
Ian, Your screenshot shows that Compiz is getting bad textures from the driver/hardware. Compiz always renders everything in triangles but their textures should fit together seamlessly. Most likely it's a driver bug. You might want to try installing AMD's own driver fglrx. Alternatively, you might have luck with a workaround like: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager ccsm CCSM Utility Workarounds Force full screen redraws (buffer swap) on repaint = ON -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1210377 Title: Graphical corruption To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/1210377/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
