It indeed IS the case for nvidia, I myself seen it on both nvidia and intel. Perhaps in more recent ubuntu nvidia's version works better, didnt test enough. On nvidia it was less likely to happen, perhaps because usually more video ram (to be used, avoid re-using of not-cleared pixmaps) For me, on Ubuntu 9.04 amd64 on nvidia - I did not seen this problem for some time now, will test for next week. ** Tags added: nvidia -- MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Intrepid Ibex Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

Could a developer explain what the exact status of this bug is supposed to be in Jaunty? Since it's been marked as fixed, people have reported rather contradictory results: should they file separate bugs on a per- driver basis? Myself I'm able to experience it with Intel i915, driver 2.7.1, EXA. I remember seeing it with UXA and latest 2.7.99 driver, which would be a real problem for the next releases - I'll check again and report. ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released => Incomplete -- MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Intrepid Ibex Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
[Bug 254468] Re: MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE)
I'm really wondering why this bug is marked as fixed? I'm running Kubuntu 9.04 with all updates avaluable from official repositories and this bug still exists. The situation even become worth with upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 (actually it was not upgrade but reinstallation since I always wondering which new changes in the installer are added in new release). It is mentioned in this ticket that the rendering garbage is shown for less then a second in 8.10 while in 9.04 ithe garbage is not replaced by the proper picture until some action wich causes window to repaint itself (for example resizing the window affected by this bug). I've red about using UXA to fix this bug and going to try it right now. I'm able to do it but I have a friend who is running kubuntu but have not enough knowlage to do it by herself. And marking this bug as fixed is a crime against such users! This bug is not fixed until the default installation with all upgrades from the default repositories works without this bug. Morover UXA is experimental and according from the description in wiki it can cause random Xserver crashes so it can't be suitable solution for this problem. Please murk this bug as open and don't close it until it can be fixed by applying upgrades from the oficial repository. I'm shy to look at the yes of my friends who installed kubuntu by my advise and facing such unpleasent behaviour of the system. -- MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Intrepid Ibex Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

After a brief delay - perhaps 200ms - the garbage is properly replaced with the real object contents. [Discussion] The RedHat patch 107_fedora_dont_backfill_bg_none.patch, which is necessary for obtaining acceptable performance with compositing desktop managers, causes this problem because it bypasses the (sloow) initialization of background pixmaps. the problem is that windows can have their background pixmap set to "None", which means something vaguely like "don't draw a background at all, just reuse the bits underneath wherever the window got mapped" it seems to have side effects... no kidding! in Composite there's no strong notion of "the bits underneath where you got mapped" since the compositor could map you anywhere trying to do what the protocol says is intensely painfully slow since it's a readback from the card and those aren't fast so what gnome quite sensibly does is tells the compositor not to show the window contents until they're painted, using the same sync protocol that window resizing uses. and then the server just doesn't define initial window contents when the window is both redirected and bg=None so it wouldn't be wrong to assert there's an issue/buglet here (in kde) still, and the xorg patch is simply helping to expose it? it's sort of ugly no matter what you do, which is why we're still carrying that patch four releases later instead of having it upstream. anything you do here is wrong. you're either breaking protocol semantics that have been good for twenty years, or you're screwing performance. rdieter: i'd say kde should do the sync protocol for mapping here, yes. it'll make it look right on servers with this hack, but it'll also look better on unpatched servers since you won't see the menu in mid-draw [Original Report] Binary package hint: kubuntu-kde4-desktop I'm running KDE 4.1 from the ppa listed at kubuntu.org, but I've had this issue ever since the first 4.0 betas. This is on a Hardy machine. Whenever a new object is drawn, such as the application menu or any application whatsoever, the space in which it will be drawn is first allocated with video garbage. After a brief delay - perhaps 200ms - the garbage is properly replaced with the real object contents. It looks as if it's displaying "old" video memory, if that makes sense. It is hard/impossible to get a proper screenshot depicting this. Restoring a minimized Firefox is a surefire way of reproducing it; every other time it will be video garbage, every other time it will just be a black box. And again, application menu, right-click menus, titlebar menus; *anything* KDE4 draws. After having once spawned the object, the next time it will draw "garbagelessly", with some exceptions (such as Firefox, for some reason). I've tried and gotten this on two machines running Intel integrated graphics (with the xserver-xorg-video-intel driver), and one with the proprietary Nvidia driver; both exhibit the same behavior. I've had some other people confirming it at the Ubuntu forums, too. Please see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=788023&highlight=drawn+time&p=5009121 and the following few replies. Enabling or disabling Desktop Effects doesn't seem to make any difference, and I've tried enabling random video options in xorg.conf but I can't say I've had much luck. For instance, on this intel machine: Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true" Option "InitialPixmapPlacement" "2" Option "DRI" "true" Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" Option "ExaNoComposite" "false" Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy" Option "BackingStore" "true" Option "Page

SECURITY (PRIVACY EXPOSURE) example Another "use case" to demonstrate the security exposure. 1. run gqviewer image browser 2. open some por^H some secret images - say a picture of your boss with caption "you are noob" 3. then continue browsing, go to other folder with other photos, in example business presentation 4. invite boss 5. press space often to (quickly) jump to next picture in the presentation (perhaps in fullscreen mode - F key) 6. under right conditions, often one of the previously watched pictures (like the secret one) will for a moment pop-up (sometimes a bit distorted or in other colors) 7. look for a new job -- MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Intrepid Ibex Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

[Bug 254468] Re: MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE)
Just wanted to point out that in Jaunty before this patch was applied, if I did the following: 1. Lock screen 2. Suspend before it finishes locking 3. Resume from suspend I could read my email for about 3-5 seconds (Evolution was open at the time) before it brought in the screensaver with the lock screen. I was using Compiz. -- MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Intrepid Ibex Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

ScottK pointed me at this bug suggesting it was the cause of poor compiz performance in jaunty ... Timo, is there an identical X server but with this patch that I could try to see whether it is the cause? If it is, I wouldn't describe it as "lower performance" - it's taking eight seconds to simply switch a workspace! -- MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Intrepid Ibex Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

That's a very good idea.

I just rebuilt xorg-server without the patch in question and this definitely solves it.

[Bug 254468] Re: MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE)
I just installed KDE 4.2 and it is even worse now. It happens when scrolling in Konsole, flickering or disappearing taskbar entries when hovering them, ... It looks different, but it still is garbage. The garbage is permanently visible (until you can make it redraw). But... it will only appear when you have a particular window focused. e.g. Eclipse or OpenOffice.org Writer (but not with OOo Calc, Impress or Draw). -- MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Intrepid Ibex Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

Kees Cook: I think you misread mosteo's comment. The garbage is the direct cause of the privacy loss.
