I've been trying to diagnose an annoying display problem with my Radeon Mobility 7500c. I have a bug open at Freedesktop.org, but it just occurred to me today to consider compositing as a factor along with the driver.
See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22256 for attachments and screenshots. I wonder if there's some unfriendly interaction between compositing software and some Radeon Mobility chipsets? I turned off compositing earlier (at least, I think it's off now), and my display seems better so far. It's too early to say for sure, unfortunately. I thought it might be helpful to cross post this information if the issues are indeed related. I hope this may be of use. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #22256 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22256 -- Metacity + compositing cause display corruption and artifact https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/386860 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
