[Bug 1298517] [NEW] Rendering issues in unity with xserver-modeset

 

Public bug reported:

Starting to report this against unity, feel free to re-assign against
the correct package (the xserver or llvm-pipe?). With the current Trusty
image (64bit) installed into a VM (KVM or Xen) that uses the default
Cirrus graphics (using virt-managers VNC viewer), I see at least two
issues:

1. Occasionally (not sure how to force it to happen) the mouse pointer
will not be rendered while input grab is active. This leaves no
indication about where the mouse pointer is. In some cases it seemed to
help when I switched to a text console and back.

2. Near to unreadable gnome terminal sessions. Background seems half
transparent, half unset. Text barely readable.

** Affects: unity (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
