[Bug 1042211] Re: [quantal] [regression] [i915] Corrupted display, desktop and menus don't repaint correctly using Mesa 9.0 (8.0.4 works)

 

The i915 is giving me lots of problems. After upgrading to 12.10 I had a
blank screen after logging in (using Unity).

There was a kernel BUG at drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c:3084! in my
syslog, so I first upgraded to 3.6.3 as suggested in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1058546 and that got rid of the BUG
message, but still a blank screen.

Then I upgraded unity (using ppa:unity-team/staging), and know I have a
working screen.

Nevertheless it keeps bugging me with a popup about a hangcheck timer
GPU. I forgot which bug#.

FYI, using XFCE avoids the problem too.
