[Bug 713440] Re: screen corruption when using xterm

 

Hi, just now we've uploaded the new -ati 6.14.0 as well as a switch of
defaults from the r600 to the r600g driver.  The r600g is a
reimplementation of the driver using the Gallium framework, which
particularly affects 3D behavior.  I don't know whether this is a fix
for your bug, but it would be worth retesting at this point.  It will
probably take some hours before the packages are built and distributed
to mirrors, so could you plan tomorrow (Feb 19th) to update to latest
Natty and retest your bug?

Fwiw, we have some other reports of terminal-related corruption although
the other reports seem distinct from this one so I don't think they're
dupes.  However in at least a couple of those cases the kernel seems
suspect, so testing against 2.6.37 seems to be a prudent first step in
isolating these bugs.

If it does still occur, please upload your /var/log/Xorg.0.log from
reproducing the issue, since this will now have the r600g debug log
messages in it.  Thanks ahead of time.
