Dear list members,
I suffer from highly disturbing artefacts with the Intel HD 4400 chip
set on thw 2560x1440 display (Sharp LQ133T1JW19) of my Fujitsu Lifebook
S904. The effects are hard to describe, therefore I have uploaded a
video to
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/9wh0nzvp0w1phxz/AAAsvAqHN8ApXzor58FmGbwLa?dl=0.
I can distinguish 2 effects that are possibly related to each other:
1. Maximized windows under GNOME3 (fully maximized or half-maximized on
the right edge of the screen) fill the screen vertically with a single
color (usually grey). Half-maximzed windows on the left edge are not
affected. The effect is only seen if the Laptop screen is the main
monitor in GNOME (showing the panel on top). Some applications, which
start in maximized mode and can't be resized, are unusable on this screen.
2. Artefacts appear when windows are placed on the right and bottom
areas of the screen. The artefacts look as if pixels extend vertically
from their horizontal position to the bottom edge of the screen
(resulting in vertical lines). The strength of the effect depends on the
content of the windows that are visible. The effect "extends" from the
window causing it to other windows and the background. The effect is not
seen in screenshots (screenshot looks fine although the screen was
unreadable at the time I took it).
1.) is observed only under GNOME, but I see 2.) on KDE and LXDE, too. I
also tried various distributions. Most of my experiments have been done
on OpenSUSE 13.2, kernel-vanilla-3.19.rc5, xorg 7.6_1.16.1-5.1, intel
2.99.916, libdrm_intel1-2.4.58-1.1, Mesa 10.3.0-91.3.2. But I see the
artefacts also on Fedora 21 and Ubuntu 14.04.
As a matter of fact, I tried the modesetting driver and even fbdev and
observed similar effects, too. Thus i915 may actually not be the culprit
here, but could I figure no other place to ask for help than this
mailing list.
I have also experimented with resolutions and refresh rates. Only at
1024x768 and lower I was unable to reproduce the problem.
Any help would be highly appreciated. I am highly willing to do any
testing and/or debugging that may be necessary to find the problem.
Best regards
Martin
