Public bug reported:
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. This boxes are not perfectly aligned as not all my
displays are the exact same size; so top display is slightly to right of
bottom display
the bottom resembles a digital TV with bad signal, mostly blocky & parts
of it flashing (very quickly). it doesn't match the attached picture
(as viewable on this box anyway.. my top display; which was LEFT prior
to alignment is perfectly readable).
** actual
my top display is usable, bottom is not (blocky warped picture)
** expected
on adjust displays to match my config; both displays remain usable &
readable.
** notes
likely related to graphics card & not GNOME. If I recall correctly;
this box has an older video card used as it had 2x DVI connections my
screens use.
My usual install on this box is jammy; but I usually use LXQt/Lubuntu
and I don't experience issues.. I also have installed Xubuntu/Xfce &
Ubuntu/GNOME so can test the installed OS (where I don't believe I have
issue), but my install is somewhat old (artful install upgraded every
six months ~30-36 hours after each release) thus is likely heavily
modified.
** Picture comments
My top display is ~perfect (vertical white bar to left of ubuntu-dock-
items I'd not expect, but the color-blocks to the left of the
'install/firefox/thunderbird/files` is NOT visible; only a vertical
WHITE bar a few pixels wide to left of the dock appears' rest of top
display is perfect.
My bottom display is nothing like picture; it's unusable. A mixture of
black/white boxes with red/purple bits which would be the picture warped
into blocky-components. When I type, I get reactions on this display
with the picture changing (mostly the black & white portions which
flash, the red/purple bits which are warped indri picture appear to
remain static).
My phone/camera isn't working, but I've taken a photograph. I didn't
anticipate issues in this QA-test (it's past 1AM now) otherwise I'd not
have run this QA-test now.
** further comments
this is likely a duplicate... I experience this type of reaction on
other boxes; likely radeon related but I've yet to look & can't even
remember which video card exists in this box (I don't experience issues
with the display configuration of the box with identical card to this,
but it relates to display setup/config... my other box with this card is
landscape+portrait I believe and doesn't have one display above the
other; ie. d780; I get these issues when one display is above the other
- and only with single orientation (swap top/bottom and issues don't
exist))
