[Bug 1576228] Re: Black borders around all windows

2017-02-23 Thread John Smith
As Dave pointed out, the problem is not consistent with black borders
but also with graphical glitch around windows, which I still think, has
something to do with, how shadows are rendered.

Adding an alternate attachment/image for graphic glitch.

[Bug 1576228] Re: Black borders around all windows

2017-02-21 Thread John Smith
** Description changed:

  While using the nvidia proprietary drivers in 14.04 - 16.04, my Dell XPS
  L501X resumes from suspend, but displays wide black borders around all
  windows with close/minimize/maximize buttons blacked out as per attached
  screenshot. It occurs inconsistently, as it doesn't happen every time
  the computer resumes.
  
  Also there seems to be certain amount of performance degradation as if
  the graphics driver was running at half-strength. The "nVidia X Server
  Settings" app suggests its in maximum performance mode.

[Bug 1576228] Re: Black borders around all windows

2017-02-10 Thread Dave English
Yes, I think that is the bug that affects several, if not many of us, in
our workplace. We use Dell XPS-15-9550 laptops.  I have Ubuntu 16.04
with proprietary Nvidia driver 361.  I use this driver rather than
nouveau, because its better support for connecting to HDMI TVs.

The borders are broad and not always completely black, sometimes they
are dominated by coloured lines and sometimes they include odd character
glyphs, particularly at the corners.  (I say this just to help other
recognise their problem as this).

Thanks for the workaround, up until now I have had to reboot.  But yes,
if I change the screen layout using System Settings -> Screen Display
when I have an extra display connected, then all is recovered.  I guess
there ought to be a more direct way of refreshing screen configuration,
but this workaround is easy enough.

[Bug 1576228] Re: Black borders around all windows

2016-06-17 Thread John Smith
(Switching back to proprietary nVidia driver) results in (graphic
corruption after resume from suspend)

However it seems there might be some issue related to how shadows are
rendered. Using nouveau, there are no shadows, and windows have borders
instead of being borderless with shadows.

I'm not familiar with: how the shadows are rendered, but there might be
some bug with shadow rendering path.

2016-06-16 Thread John Smith
It seems the problem might have something to do with how shadows are
rendered, AFAIK using nouveau has disabled shadows (possibly due to
lower performance of graphics card on nouveau) however the shadows are
enabled using the proprietary Nvidia driver 361.42...

I'm just guessing the shadows are disabled as windows are not borderless
even using default theme Ambiance/Radiance

Hey penalvch,

After almost a day of using nouveau, there doesn't seem to be any black
border after resume from suspend, however this might be because of low
suspend-resume cycle count.

I'll post update if the issue occurs on nouveau.

Hey Christopher,
Always a pleasure to contribute.

I have switched over to nouveau, but since the issue occurs INconsistently
I cannot immediately reproduce the bug condition. I'll most likely have to
wait and watch for suspend-resume cycles to check if the bug gets
reproduced .

Meanwhile there seems to be bug:  title bar appearing transparent with
nouveau as I have posted on bug tracker

2016-06-14 Thread John Smith
I sorted out the suspend issue (turns out I had inserted a faulty memory
card in the laptop and as it was unable to get data 'sync' to it hence
systemd was assuming that suspend transaction would be destructive :D )

I'll try to use nouveau for a few days, see if black border issue
persists or comes up.

2016-06-13 Thread John Smith
Another thing that might help in triage is as per the workaround
specified,

Changing screen position (in a 2 monitor setup: laptop + HD TV(via HDMI) ) 
corrects the problem,
Important thing to note is that you can use [ nvidia-x-server-settings ] or [ 
gnome program: Displays] to do it, in either case as soon as I click 'apply' 
the black border issue is corrected.
i.e. [ 'change position of either screen' -> 'click apply' -> screens blackout 
-> screens re-appear -> revert to previous configuration (or not) -> black 
borders gone ]

1. The black border issue is inconsistent so cannot verify whether using 
nouveau fixed it or not.
2. My HDD seems to be giving-up as the read-error-rate is at: 6033
   ->Which seems to result in btrfs errors/panic in syslog
   -> -> Also which seems to prevent `suspend` at the moment

3. There's a different issue with nouveau driver
   -> The title bar of 'currently-selected' window becomes almost transparent,
  the issue was not present with proprietary driver.
  [ image attached: 2 'Files/Nautilus' windows with one selected (title bar 
transparent) ]

4. One last thing, with proprietary driver, Google Chrome GPU process used to 
crash intermittently,
   and WebGL used to crash every-time on visiting maps.google.com, but it 
doesn't crash with nouveau.
( p.s. I know it's a chromium bug, but it might help in finding the problem in 
display stack.

2016-06-12 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
John Smith, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

To clarify, if you remove the nvidia drivers is this still reproducible?
