[Bug 803012] [NEW] Intel driver incorrectly renders some UI elements

 

Public bug reported:

Some UI elements from wine and fvwm don't render correctly when using
the Intel driver. This can be observed in screenshots shown in the
following links:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28798
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29401
http://askubuntu.com/questions/29642/black-or-corrupt-ui-artifacts-under-wine/

These issues have been attributed to errors in UXA utilising the 3D pipeline for core rendering.
Upstream has disabled this to resolve this issue for now.

I have applied their patch (commit: 855ced5a4eb67e287001ae22cb6489639c548cfa) to test this fix, which works for me here:
