I'm also affected by this character corruption bug. My hardware is a notebook with Intel 4500M (i915 driver). First I thought it's caused by a hardware issue with my external screen, but the notebook screen shows the currupted characters as well. Sometimes when I scroll down to the end of a website with text and then keep scrolling (when the end is reached), about 2 characters per sentence are corrupted and about every 1/10 second the position of the curruptions change. The characters that were corrupted before look fine then and different characters are corrupted.
What I have tried so far: - Disable/enable xcompmgr (no effect) - Use XFCE (no effect) - Change driver options i915_enable_rc6, i915_enable_fbc, lvds_downclock (no effect) - Use different fonts (no effect) - Disable sna (works) - Test firefox, libreoffice, chromium (all affected) Version Info: Kernel 3.10.1-1-ARCH xf86-video-intel 2.21.12 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1098489 Title: [gen4] Corruption in Chrome omni bar results using Intel SNA To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1098489/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
