I have updated to current git and reverted commit b7565a26401e283df94b68019e8093f8104428f4 and left the MAX_FLUSH_VERTICES set to 1, but now instead of glyph corruption I notice some icons are corrupted similar to the glyphs before.
Example: In thunderbird, I hover over a toolbar icon and when the mouse pointer leaves the icon, it is corrupted. Or it gets corrupted when I hover over the icon. In both cases, the corruptions disappear a short time after, when something else gets updated on the screen. Strangely, I have not seen glyph corruption yet. -- 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: [gen4 sna] Font corruption Status in X.org xf86-video-intel: In Progress Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete 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.
