In response to #420: Last time I installed the backclear.patch on ATI Mobility HD3400 hardware I noticed distorted and weird pixels when opening new windows. They disappeared as soon as contents was painted into the window. However it suggests what the source code comments say:
+- /* +- * Copy bits from the parent into the new pixmap so that it will +- * have "reasonable" contents in case for background None areas. +- */ Without this patch- there are NO distorted and arbitrary colored pixels when opening new windows. I would all this a regression (besides the performance improvement) within ATI hardware already. -- What I just did is install the patch on -intel hardware (GM965 to be more specific) and expected to see those weird colored pixels when opening new windows. However windows look fine upon creation. -- [M76] [ubuntu 9.04] [ubuntu 9.10] [ubuntu 10.04] slow unminimizing with ati card and desktop effects enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/351186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
