[Bug 286932] Re: openoffice and skype menus and buttons disappear and reappear hovering over with mouse

2009-09-24 Thread ricardisimo
I'm using nvidia-glx-180 version 180.44-0ubuntu1, and having the same
problem. How exactly am I to fix this? Do I need to add someone's
personal repository, or is can someone just post a link to a .deb?
Thanks.

2009-07-16 Thread Axos
Thanks for confirming, Rüdiger Kupper. I guess I may need to file a new
bug report for this. I wasn't sure since the new driver isn't part of an
official release yet.

Personally, I don't mind None mode (Compiz disabled) but I worry that
first-timers will be very turned off if they try Ubuntu (or any other
Linux distro using this NVIDIA driver) and see this kind of scrolling.
Very bad first (and final) impression.

[Bug 286932] Re: openoffice and skype menus and buttons disappear and reappear hovering over with mouse

2009-07-15 Thread Axos
I installed 185.18.14 (using the link provided by Bryce Harrington
above) and have observed scrolling problems in the OpenOffice Word
Processor when Visual Effects are set to Normal (the default
setting). Setting Visual Effects to None works around the problem.

I wrote a small Python script to generate a test text file to load in
OpenOffice (redirect the script's stdout to something like lines.txt
and then open the file in the OpenOffice Word Processor):

from __future__ import print_function
for i in range(1000):
for j in range(6):
print('line', i, end='\t')
print()

After loading that text file in OpenOffice, I paged through the file
using the PgDn key on the keyboard. When the window was drawn
incorrectly, I captured it with gnome-screenshot. I am attaching some
examples.

This bug was fixed in the package nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 -
185.18.14-0ubuntu1

---
nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 (185.18.14-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (LP: #376067):
- Fixed a Xinerama drawable resource management problem that can
  cause GLXBadDrawable errors in certain cases, such as when Wine
  applications are run.
  (LP: #344721)
- Fixed XineramaQueryScreens to return 0 screens instead of 1
  screen with the geometry of screen 0 when XineramaIsActive
  returns false. This conforms to the Xinerama manual page and
  fixes an interaction problem with Compiz when there is more
  than one X screen.
- Moved kernel module loading earlier in the X driver's
  initialization, to facilitate more graceful fallbacks if the
  kernel module cannot be loaded. Removed the LoadKernelModule X
  configuration option.
- Added support for new horizontal interlaced and checkerboard
  passive stereo modes.
- Fixed an OpenGL driver crash while running Bibble 5.
- Fixed a DisplayPort interaction problem with power management
  suspend/resume events.
- Fixed occasional X driver memory management performance
  problems when a composite manager is running.
  (LP: 294925)
- Fixed a bug with VT-switching or mode-switching while using
  Compiz; the bug could lead to a corrupted desktop (e.g., a
  white screen) or in the worst case an X server crash.
- Fixed a bug that could cause GPU errors in some cases while
  driving Quadro SDI products.
- Fixed a several second hang when VT-switching while OpenGL
  stereo applications were running on pre-G80 Quadro GPUs.
- Added support for multiple swap group members on G80 and later
  Quadro GPUs.
- Fixed the behavior of the NV_CTRL_FRAMELOCK_SYNC_DELAY
  NV-CONTROL attribute on Quadro G-Sync II.
- Fixed a problem with Quadro SDI where transitioning from
  clone mode to OpenGL mode would fail.
- Fixed VDPAU to eliminate some cases of corruption when decoding
  H.264 video containing field-coded reference frames on G84, G86,
  G92, G94, G96, or GT200 GPUs. Such streams are commonly found in
  DVB broadcasts.
- Slightly improved the performance of the VDPAU noise reduction
  algorithm.
- Enhanced VDPAU to validate whether overlay usage is supported by
  the current hardware configuration, and to automatically fall
  back to the blit-based presentation queue if required.
- Fixed error checking in VdpVideoMixerRender, to reject calls
  that specify more layers than the VdpMixer was created with.
- Modified VDPAU's VDPAU_DEBUG code to emit a complete backtrace
  on all platforms, not just on 32-bit Linux.
- Improved interaction between VDPAU and PowerMizer; appropriate
  performance levels should now be chosen for video playback of all
  standard resolutions on all supported GPUs.
- Fixed a bug in VDPAU that sometimes caused display preemption
  when the VdpDecoderCreate function failed.
- Fixed a potential segfault in the VDPAU trace library, triggered
  by a multi-threaded application creating a new VdpDevice in one
  thread, at the same time that another thread detected display
  preemption.
- Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels.
- OpenOffice and Skype no longer have flickering buttons on mouseover
  when compiz is enabled. (LP: #286932)
- smplayer and VirtualBox no longer display video corruption with
  composite (LP: #364764)

If any an confirm this bug using a non-nvidia card feel free to re-open,
but this is very likely a bug in the nvidia driver. It would be
interesting if someone pulled noveau from git and checked how that
works, they've been making some nice progress lately.

Running Jaunty, 64bit, Nvidia 180.44 with compiz

OpenOfficre controls and menu items occasionally disappear when moused
over. Sometimes the window fails to refresh and I have to move it to see
changes. This was a problem in intrepid after the 180.44 driver package
was released. Downgrading to 17x might fix it, but I'd rather not. (is
that even an option in jaunty?). Its fine with compiz off.

 Quick fix, now that new NVIDIA drivers are in the Ubuntu repositories.

 sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180

 It should uninstall the NVIDIA 177 driver and install the 180 version.
 Then reboot your machine and you should be using the new 180 version of the
 driver...  And OpenOffice menus and buttons work fine.

 when i hover with mouse over the text on a drop-down-menu, like file or

 the buttons like OK or CANCEL appear and disappear.
 sometimes option-widows of openoffice open with no text or text just half

 klicking with mouse on windows lets text appear completely...

 i tryed other teams, also human, , it does not work.
 removed ~/.gtk*  but no avail.

 the only thing that works is to switch off compiz.

[Bug 286932] Re: openoffice and skype menus and buttons disappear and reappear hovering over with mouse

2008-12-04 Thread huiii
i am using now the newest nvidia prop. driver 177.83 from nvidia-site.
fresh ibex i installation.
openoffice is nearly unusable with compiz enabled.
skype got better, but now and than shows some similar symptoms.

from my observation this has something to do with non refreshing graphics,
so in openoffice, when the progress bar appears in the status-bar, the image of 
 it will remain there and just disappear when moving the window of oo.
the same happens with text: if i write something and than i delete it, the 
deleted text will not disappear.
it does so when moving the window of oo.

hope this helps somehow..

SOLVED for me today with installation beta prop. driver from nvidia
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_180.06.html

this driver does it very well.
no problems at all so far, better overall performance...
openoffice is working fine now, skype too.
it was after all an nvidia-driver issue.

thx

2008-11-23 Thread marfal
I have a very similar problem,
Open Office text descriptions on the tool bars and drop down menu's are absent. 
They do very briefly appear as you move the cursor over them, but all menu's 
are blank as well as the options settings box - if you can manage to get to it.
I'm running intrepid on a Toshiba Satellite 2410-601 with the nvidia 
accelerated graphics driver  (version 96) [recommended].
If I switch off compiz, open office is fine, turn it back on, text disappears 
again.
I've installed the 'fusion-icon' so I can easily switch between compiz and 
metacity.

I answer to myself.
Driver version 177 makes compiz effects perform SO MUCH BETTER.. all the 
problems I've had since Hardy with my Nvidia Card and Desktop Effects 
disappear... but Openoffice becomes unusable :(

2008-11-15 Thread Guglielmo Cola
I confirm what you said on my system too.
I installed version 173 of nvidia driver and everything is fine now.
I just don't know why Ubuntu reccomends me to install version 177... why?

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: nvidia and compiz
  
  ubuntu hardy 64bit
  openoffice 2.4 from repo
  openoffice 3.0 from openoffice web-site
  
  hello
  i had no problems till some days ago openoffice started to do something quite 
annoying:
  when i hover with mouse over the text on a drop-down-menu, like file or 
tools or any other, the text and the icons disappear and reappear... also the 
buttons like OK or CANCEL appear and disappear.
  sometimes option-widows of openoffice open with no text or text just half 
drowned. 
  klicking with mouse on windows lets text appear completely...
  
  i tryed other teams, also human, , it does not work.
  removed ~/.gtk*  but no avail.
  
  the only thing that works is to switch off compiz.
  might this be related to new nvidia-drivers 177?

It affects my system too.
Intrepid Ibex with nvidia-drivers 177 (version reccomended by the system 
itself).
I got some improvement customising the human theme: I set controls to 
human-clearlooks instead of human.
Not a good solution... and still some text disappears in Openoffice as you can 
see in the attached picture. Annoying :(

it affects the systemtray of GNOME-panel,
going to revert nvidia-drivers, from 177 back to 173.

2008-10-21 Thread huiii
ok, it is proven on this system here, 
going back to nvidia-drivers version 173 (proprietary) helped,
things work fine again.

bugs are there in combination of compiz and proprietary drivers from
nvidia version 177.
