This morning I've received the kde 4.10 update and newer debs for git version of the intel driver (13/02/07 - git 974b6a).
I cannot decouple if the rendering issues have worsened with the newer driver (probably not) or if the newer kde framework and kwin is exposing bugs in a more aggressive way, but things have become a bit problematic with this newer setup. 1) Border of the toolbar disappears 2) Shades/light effects of kwin do not render properly and remain in place (often with distortion) after use 3) Some characters appear underlined in the konsole Moving back to uxa seems to fix all these issues, as well as the libreoffice rendering. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1098334 Title: Font corruption in Chromium tab bar using Intel SNA Status in X.org xf86-video-intel: Confirmed Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: After enabling the SNA acceleration method and rebooting, I noticed that graphical glitches appeared in the letters on Chromium's tab bar during the mouse hover animation.
