Title:
SNA acceleration causes black background and window issues on
secondary display
Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
After upgrading my laptop to Ubuntu 16.10, I noticed that the
secondary monitor I use at work was showing a black background instead
of the background shown on my primary display. Also if windows were
dragged to the secondary display I would see weird artifacts such as
multiple stacked copies of the window being dragged. I believe that
this is an SNA issue on multi-monitor setups. I managed to get the old
correct behaviour back by switching the accelaration method to UXA by
means of Xorg configuration file.
My workaround involves putting:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
EndSection
inside a file named /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
The information needed to assemble this file was found on the Arch
Linux Wiki.
