Package: xserver-xfree86-dbg
Version: 4.3.0-0pre1v5
Severity: important
This problem doesn't happen when I activate the `Option NoAccel
true' line (but then the server is too slow to use comfortably). I
cannot reproduce the problem reliably, but I've noticed these things:
* Once the problem happens, if I restart the X server (with
acceleration enabled), I see the mouse cursor, but not the typical
weave pattern on the root window; instead the background is black,
and the upper inch or so of the screen is garbage. I need to reboot
in order to get the accelerated X server to work
* The problem only started happening a week ago, after months of
working fine. But then the power failed, and the computer shut
down; the problem started appearing as soon as I turned the computer
back on. (As far as I can tell, my file system hasn't been
corrupted, but I don't know how to find out for sure -- there's
nothing in /lost+found, and the only messages that I saw from ext3
when it tried to recover were `23 orphan inodes deleted' on my root
filesystem).
* The last time the problem happened -- and, I think, a few other
times -- was just after I'd switched VMware into full-screen mode.
Here's a stack trace:
