furkanso, still a difference00:00

tjaaltonfurkan: can't reproduce the checkerboarding bug or the corruption. the dpms issue is real, testing a commit now14:31
furkantjaalton: this is interesting... i unplugged my secondary monitor, and everything works much, much better17:17
tjaaltonis the other monitor a 4k one?17:18
furkanno checkerboarding, no "snow" in the virtual terminal, no delay when switching between virtual terminals (with 2 monitors, it takes a few seconds), and no graphics corruption when initially logging in (i didn't mention that in the bug report because i thought that was "normal", i'll take a vid for you if you want)17:19
furkani have just my 27" 2560x1440 monitor connected now17:19
tjaaltonand the other one?17:20
furkani unplugged it.. i'll plug it in and try it in landscape mode first17:20
furkanbefore switching to portrait, which is how i originally had it17:20
tjaaltonthe resolution?17:20
furkanoh right17:20
* furkan tests17:20
tjaaltontried rotating the other one, still nothing17:24
furkannope... killed my desktop17:24
furkani took a pic17:24
furkanhttps://www.dropbox.com/s/fd1tdi67og8iz91/IMG_20150408_132316.jpg?dl=017:24
furkanthat's what happened when i tried to change from 2560x1440 to 1920x108017:24
furkanso you have a dual-monitor setup too?17:25
furkanwhat are your resolutions?17:25
tjaalton25x14, 19x1017:25
furkanoh, so almost the same17:25
tjaaltonhooked to the same monitor via dvi & hdmi17:26
furkanand you tried rotating the 19x10 monitor?17:26
tjaaltonyes17:26
furkanwait, hooked to the same monitor? you mean 1 screen connected with 2 cables?17:26
tjaaltonyup17:26
tjaaltoni only have one17:26
furkanhmm17:26
furkanok i will try connecting it again in landscape17:27
furkanok so i have the monitor in landscape now17:33
furkanswitching between vts is no longer instantaneous17:33
furkanbut no checkerboarding/snow17:33
furkanafter suspend/resume17:33
furkanchanging resolution still trips it up, i need to switch into a VT and service lightdm restart17:34
furkanso i made the switch to portrait, right now i have checkerboarding, but no "snow"17:36
furkaneven after 2 suspend/resume cycles (1 when i had the monitor in landscape, and 1 after i switched to portrait)17:37
furkani bet it'll be back after i restart though17:38
tjaaltonso which one is in portrait?17:38
furkanyeah so i restarted, at first no snow, then suspend/resume and the snow is back... so it seems to reproduce that bug i need to boot directly into that display configuration17:43
furkani have 27" 2560x1440 in landscape mode17:43
furkanand 24" 1920x1200 in portrait mode, on the left-hand side17:43
furkani suppose i could also try putting it on the right-hand side as a final test17:43
furkaninteresting, this time my screen didn't become garbled after changing resolution17:44
furkanand VT switches are instantaneous17:45
furkanok well after restarting, no difference17:49
furkanbut at that moment, just after switching the screen from one side to the other, i was getting instantaneous VT switches, now i'm not17:50
furkanbut snow/checkerboarding still there17:50
tjaaltonhave you tried 4.0?17:50
furkanhttps://www.dropbox.com/s/4koy953b7faj095/VID_20150408_134129.mp4?dl=017:51
furkanthat's the corruption when initially logging in.. pretty minor so i hadn't thought much of it before, but it doesn't happen with a single monitor connected17:51
furkanand yeah i was using 4.0 for a while, and same issues17:51
tjaaltontry #radeon then, and file a bug on bugs.freedesktop.org17:52
furkanbut i didn't have the issue with Xorg 1.16, so what if it's an Xorg bug and not a kernel bug?17:53
furkanand when i downgrade to 3.16 i still have the issue17:53
furkanwhereas before upgrading to 15.04, i didn't17:53
furkanso i think that rules out the kernel, no?17:53
tjaaltonsame devs17:53
furkanah17:53
tjaaltonpretty much17:53
furkanok will do, then17:54
furkanthanks for the pointer17:54
furkanbtw, another regression, unrelated to X: after rebooting or suspend/resume, i need to unplug my headphone and plug it back in for it to be recognized again17:56
furkanif i submit too many bug reports i feel like i'll become the "boy who cried wolf", but right about now i'm wishing that i stayed with 14.04 :P17:57
tjaaltonwell, can't reproduce that either, something wrong with jack detection I guess18:00
tjaaltonfile that against pulseaudio18:00
tjaaltonfor starters18:00
furkantjaalton: i guess i understand the "snow" thing now19:54
furkanwhen on a VT, it sets the same resolution on both monitors19:55
furkanso since my smaller monitor is 1920x1200, it sets that resolution on both19:55
furkanand before suspending, it's scaled to full screen19:56
furkanafter suspend/resume, you get the 1920x1200 terminal drawn on the top left corner of the screen, and the blank areas are white19:56
furkanin 4.0, the terminal isn't scaled to full screen but the blank areas are black (then after suspend/resume it turns white)19:58
furkanreally not the worst out of the bugs i've seen so far, but something is really broken w/ dual monitor support on a radeon card20:02
tjaaltonfurkan: yep, saw the same, no corruption though, just white borders20:19
furkantjaalton: i know this must be an upstream bug, but just to share the hilarity https://www.dropbox.com/s/caawhzn8zfycc00/VID_20150408_165520.mp4?dl=021:00
furkanthe time difference between switching, where the secondary monitor is on the left vs. the right21:01
furkan*switching to a VT21:01
tjaaltonit is what it is.21:03
furkanwell with the open-source drivers w/ kernel modesetting, it's supposed to be instantaneous21:04
furkanwhereas with the proprietary drivers it's not21:04
furkanso while the bug itself is no big deal, i think it's indicative that something is going wrong21:04
furkantjaalton: do you use vanilla Ubuntu, or one of the derivatives?22:37
