[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1953507] Re: [radeon] jammy live - on adjusting display config; one display is unsuable blocky-mess
On rebooting into my installed system on same box - dell [optiplex] 960 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350) AND using 'Ubuntu on Xorg' (sorry i forget exact wording) on Ubuntu jammy. - I am NOT getting any video glitches using the GNOME desktop; if I had I would have noticed before now HOWEVER - SCREENshots are showing issues to the left & right of what my scree showed just as LIVE image showed, these are only visible using PRINTSCREEN, and AFTER screen-position-change (even if change is very slight) What I see varies on each SCREENSHOT but on the attached picture I see bits of the terminal window mostly; parts of my `gpicview` display of first picture (will talk about this shortly!) .. & other windows. PLEASE NOTE the image shown in the `gpicview` window; nothing glitchy shows on that picture!! which was directly after login before I adjusted screens; the issues appear to be after moving alignment of screen on four subsequent PRINTSCREEN presses after slight changes of screen.alignment GLITCHES were evident a per top-left & bottom-right of the image itself. I see nothing wrong on my displays, I'm talking about PRINTSCREEN images saved to disk that are later viewed in my old gpicview. Note: this installed system was installed in the artful cycle; is release-upgraded every 6 months (though wasn't on artful long at all) so is heavily modified. This is my observation of this session only; I'd want to confirm what I wrote here on subsequent logouts/logins before I relied on it..

I've booted today's daily (jammy canary ISO - ISO date 20220222) on my - dell [optiplex] 960 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350) On FIRST adjustment of displays (one [directly] above the other) no visual issues were observed. On SECOND adjustment of displays (top display slightly to the right of the below display; this is how my displays actually are as not all displays are identical size), visual glitches did occur - however they don't match the description of my original post. My bottom display today is PERFECT, the glitches appeared top display along the left edge only.. but they've since returned to normal (glitches stopped flashing after I took screenshot) See screenshot - it'll explain how I've aligned displays PLUS shows ~blocky-mess where screens do not show (left of my-top display & right of my-bottom display.. this POSSIBLY is what I was seeing on original post EXCEPT it was showing on screen but isn't today at least not now (but was left edge of my upper screen at beginning of session after second adjustment of display settings until I hit printscreen). GNOME Settings About - tells me X11 is the "Windowing System" used in this default run. Either way; nothing would stop me from using this box today... (I may [if i remember] when I reboot into my normal jammy] use GNOME & have a look at how it is there I did NOT find a way at gdm3 to login using WAYLAND instead of default X11/Xorg in the live session.

I haven't re-tested on my primary box (d960)... yet. I grabbed the latest *daily* of Ubuntu Desktop (2022.02.16) and performed a live QA-test on - dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350) and was unable to re-create this issue. Default session on a LIVE run is X.Org as reported using GNOME.Settings.ABOUT which is what I believe was default on d960 (and am yet to confirm). Do note it's identical in specs except for box model; my details being taken from `lshw`. HOWEVER it has different motherboard & external ports, and its video card has HDMI+DVI ports out the back instead of 2xDVI on the 960 thus its not identical. It also has different resolution monitors (two old dell 4:3) I could NOT re-create the issue described in this bug report on this box; including play trying to adjust screen positions in arrangements somewhat akin to how monitors are set on 960 (much of the play using the landscape+portrait orientation as that's how the 780 monitors are; which is different to 2xlandscape on 960, but I did try and re-create using 2xlandscape [gritting my teeth] http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/429/builds/244481/testcases/1303/results -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1953507 Title: [radeon] jammy live - on adjusting display config; one display is unsuable blocky-mess Status in xserver-xorg-video-ati package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: ubuntu jammy daily (canary build) live test on - dell optiplex 960 (this is my primary machine; so is normally used for entry of data & not doing the QA-testing). on adjusting the displays to match my setup (six displays; two high & three across; this box uses two in the middle with middle on top row & middle on bottom row).. the top display is still useable, but the bottom is not.
