Title:
tint2 taskbar boots irregularly with xserver-xorg-video-ati, boots
fine with proprietary driver
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I run a little taskbar app called tint2. I boot it at startup, but
about 50% of the time it isn't visible after booting. The other 50% it
is. So I can reboot or logout/login until it sticks. At first I
thought it was a bug in tint2, but now I have found that I don't get
this issues when I run the AMD proprietary driver (fglrx). So I think
it might be a problem in the xserver-xorg-video-ati driver. I have a
Radeon HD 8600M series in a Lenovo S540.
Additional note: when it does not display and I power off the
computer, it is displayed for a brief moment before the computer shuts
down. That makes me think that it is actually a display problem, not a
problem of tint2 not booting at all.
If this is unlikely to be caused by the xserver-xorg-video-ati driver,
I apologize for reporting it here. If you need additional information,
please let me know, I will be happy to provide.
Required info:
1) Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
2) xserver-xorg-video-ati Installed: 1:7.3.0-1ubuntu3.1
