[Bug 399829] [NEW] display corruption when moving desktop windows

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Running Ubuntu Karmic Koala Alpha 2,

Latest from ubuntu-x-swat as of 15 Jul - 
including xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.7.99.901+git20090702.74227141-0ubuntu1 (karmic) 

Running on HP nx7400 laptop, intel 945 chipset

Having installed these latest updates, have seen a new bug - on graphic
movement like moving a desktop window around, the display will flicker
and appear corrupt. Corruption stops when movement stops.

On the native laptop panel resolution of 1680x1050, several refresh
rates are shown of 60Hz, 70Hz, 75Hz and 85Hz. This corruption does not
appear at all at 85Hz refresh, but appears at all other refresh
frequencies.

I tried installing the latest drivers from the xorg-edgers repository as
of 14th Jul, but this driver only provided me with a 1680x1050 60Hz
option which always corrupts display on movement, so I have returned to
the ubuntu-x-swat repository for now, but having to run at 85Hz.
