I've forwarded this bug upstream to http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34584 - please subscribe yourself to this bug, in case they need further information or wish you to test something.
Since Stefano git bisected down to a specific kernel tree commit (thanks bunches Stefano!) it seems safe to say it's a kernel bug rather than xorg at this point. But I've gone ahead and upstreamed the bug to the -intel driver (the bisection search points to a git commit from one of the Intel driver developers). Even though this is definitely a kernel bug rather than X, I'll leave the -intel task open for a little bit, in case there are more dupe bug reports about this issue filed to X. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #34584 http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34584 ** Also affects: xorg-server via http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34584 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Natty) Assignee: (unassigned) => Canonical Kernel Team (canonical-kernel-team) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Natty) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Natty) Milestone: None => natty-alpha-3 ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu Natty) Milestone: natty-alpha-3 => None ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu Natty) Assignee: Canonical Kernel Team (canonical-kernel-team) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/717114 Title: [i945gm] Screen Corruption with new Xorg stack with terminal programs _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
