Re: [Bug 1486036] Re: Faulty graphics behaviour when resuming from suspend with intel graphics drivers

 

Hi Christopher,

     Thanks for the reply and the information on the BIOS update. I have
updated to the new BIOS (saved the EXE file to USB key and updated BIOS
from the BIOS), but it did not resolve the problem. Here is the result of:
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
A05
07/14/2015

It seems that others with different machines are having an issue that
appears to be similar to mine. Perhaps this is related to the driver? I
strongly suspect that upon resume it is playing with the resolution and
changing to a funny unknown mode (from what I see in the Xorg logs). The
issue may be more exaggerated for me compared to others because I am using
a different window display manager (FVWM).

If you hear of any other updates on this issue, please let me know,
thanks!

julien

Title:
  Faulty graphics behaviour when resuming from suspend with intel
  graphics drivers

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I will copy and paste an excerpt from the link below. Is this the
  right place to post the bug?

  Waking from suspend, everything seems normal, except the graphical
  elements and text on my desktop are not drawn properly. Sometimes,
  moving the mouse over icons can cause them to be redrawn, sometimes
  not. It appears not to matter how I initiate the suspend (e.g. by
  closing laptop lid, or by calling pm-suspend explicitly) and it
  appears not to matter whether I am using an external display or the
  laptop's own screen.

  All other hardware appears to be working, and I can restart the laptop
  by clicking where the icons ought to be. The only symptom seems to be
  that the drawing does not happen correctly.

  I'm not sure what additional information I should provide to help
  diagnose the problem, so please advise me.

  Also, if this is more likely to be a xfce issue, then please change
  the package on the bug report.
