Title:
Screen disappear and show chunks from memory
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Don't know what's happening and what is responsible. I've installed
Xubuntu 14.04 32bit. I'm working on 4 desktops (2 of them have
Chromium with few Thunar and gedit and the other 2 have full screen
emacs) and sometime when I do something in Chronium everything
disappear and some part of the screen show current desktop and some
show youtube video I was watching in the morning.
I have ATI Radeon based laptop, default installation not properitary
drivers (when I search for them I got message that it didn't found
any).
I read that my video card is supported by default drivers. lspci show:
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
[AMD/ATI] RS880M [Mobility Radeon HD 4225/4250]
For me it look like corrupted video memory that show different data
(saved when I watch youtube). Maybe it's drivers fault. I'm able to
fix the issue for a while when I click show desktop icon. Don't know
what's triggering this, sometime it look like everything is working
fine.
Before 14.04 I had 13.04 64bit version and everything was working
fine, didn't have enough space to upgrade. But back then I had ATI
catalysis drivers.
