Hello Mr Deucher, could you please be a bit more specific which mobile xpress x1250 are not affected? Right now I have R60 and R20, both of which show same issues... Can you please suggest any patch to clear the texture memory when asked prior to submitting it for writing (within the OpenGL-specific context)? Right now, the more one works, the more triangle surface is flawless. Only freshly booted or freshly hibernated under go it and as time passes these surfaces are eventually clear, except for those that never get a chance of rewrite, like fonts textures in gnome-shell. Also, switching TTYs is still an issue as system can simply become unable to switch back to Xorg TTY, with screen constantly flashing/pulsating in black. But this is not a huge blocker.

There is a memory corruption issue that affects users of the rs690m, to varying degrees. For many most people, it makes the desktop unusable. Workaround: *Note: This is a workaround, not a fix. It will give you a usable system. [Natty]: Regression: This workaround now only provides 2d/software rendering, and one must either: * Choose choose the "Ubuntu Classic" session from the GDM Login screen or * Install the "unity-2d" package. [code] sudo su echo options radeon modeset=0 > /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf exit [/code] Note that this doesn't totally fix the issue, but brings your desktop to a workable state. Freedesktop.org has dealt with one bug having to do with graphics corruption on the rs690m. That bug has been fixed, but the issue of graphics corruption in general has not been resolved. A new bug has been opened with freedesktop.org to continue pushing through the resolution of this issue.
