[Bug 803012] Re: Intel driver incorrectly renders some UI elements

 

I've unduplicated bug 745608. While it looked like it was a dup, I've
installed xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.14.0-4ubuntu7.2 from natty-
proposed and the glyph corruption described in 745608 is still present.
If you read the upstream bug
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36326 (and more explicitly
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=47560 ) , it talks about
the need for a kernel patch to force unfenced buffers to be aligned to
powers of two. Supposedly this is due to hardware tiling bugs on old
chipsets...
