Christopher, if you look at my bug, you might, for a second, see that I provided all the information and additional details on 2014-10-25. I have not heard a single message or a request for more information from you after that. Bug is in "Confirmed" status. Explain to me in human language, why a new identical bug report should be filed on top of the previous one should be helpful. All the information is there and not just from me, but from all the other people too (see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35998 ). If I would be able to fix issue, I'd fix it a long time ago. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1382772
The funny thing is, #radeon IRC channel was infinitely more helpful than collective knowledge of launchpad. Didn't fix it despite all the attempts but at least people cared enough to suggest some solutions, which is, apparently, more than anyone here can provide. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #35998 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35998 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1492580 Title: Display corruption Status in xserver-xorg-video-ati package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I am running a newly installed and updated Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS on a Samsung P500 Laptop (Model NP-P500I, NP-P500-RA01DE). I guess this issue is related to the graphics card, which is a Radeon Xpress 1250. The display corruption occurs directly after login on the top of the screen and i mentioned something at the bottom of the search window. I attached screenshots of it. I see similar corruption with ubuntu 15.04.
