[Bug 254468] Re: MASTER: momentary video garbage upon drawing new objects (particularly in KDE)

 

I'm really wondering why this bug is marked as fixed?

I'm running Kubuntu 9.04 with all updates avaluable from official
repositories and this bug still exists. The situation even become worth
with upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 (actually it was not upgrade but
reinstallation since I always wondering which new changes in the
installer are added in new release).

It is mentioned in this ticket that the rendering garbage is shown for
less then a second in 8.10 while in 9.04 ithe garbage is not replaced by
the proper picture until some action wich causes window to repaint
itself (for example resizing the window affected by this bug).

I've red about using UXA to fix this bug and going to try it right now.
I'm able to do it but I have a friend who is running kubuntu but have
not enough knowlage to do it by herself. And marking this bug as fixed
is a crime against such users! This bug is not fixed until the default
installation with all upgrades from the default repositories works
without this bug. Morover UXA is experimental and according from the
description in wiki it can cause random Xserver crashes so it can't be
suitable solution for this problem.

Please murk this bug as open and don't close it until it can be fixed by
applying upgrades from the oficial repository. I'm shy to look at the
yes of my friends who installed kubuntu by my advise and facing such
unpleasent behaviour of the system.
