[Bug 987941] Re: Ubuntu Installer Slideshow - Severe tearing when changing slides

 

This problem would be related more to Webkit than the slideshow, and
based on your description it likely stems from your graphics driver…

Did you happen to try Help & Support while you were testing? I'd be
interested to know if it had the same problem.

** Also affects: webkit (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Ubuntu Installer Slideshow - Severe tearing when changing slides

Status in “ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “webkit” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  
  I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 from a daily built. 

  Aside from the installation being slower than usual, whenever I
  changed Slide on the Slideshow, severe tearing occured during
  transitions.

  Actually you could see randomly distributed and randomly sized grey
  rectangles moving along with the transitions.

  It is the first time I fully install Ubuntu 12.04, but I have never
  experienced the same issue with previous Ubuntu versions, as far as
  the slideshow goes. So, AFAIK it is a regression for my system

  Note: It might be the graphics drivers for my system to blame, I see
  noticable tearing whenever I move windows around, and smooth scrolling
  is noticably worse than it used to in Ubuntu 11.10.
