| furkan | tjaalton: confirmed that it's not a radeon bug... same issue with fglrx, and the checkerboarding doesn't happen in kubuntu | 03:28 |
|---|---|---|
| furkan | i posted another comment on the bug report again a few hours ago, saying that i had tested it in kubuntu | 03:29 |
| furkan | so it's probably not Xorg (since it doesn't happen on KDE), and almost definitely not the open-source radeon driver (since i don't think it shares any code with fglrx), so i think that probably leaves Unity/compiz | 03:30 |
| furkan | tjaalton: when you get the opportunity, would you mind testing again with both screens not aligned at the top, i.e. with y > 0 for the landscape monitor | 03:31 |
| furkan | but how could it be unity/compiz... because it first started happening when i upgraded to xserver-xorg-lts-vivid from the x staging ppa when i was running trusty | 03:33 |
| furkan | so then maybe it *is* an xorg bug | 03:33 |
| furkan | well at least i have dpms back, after switching to fglrx | 03:35 |
| furkan | (but i did lose my virtual terminals) | 03:40 |
| furkan | with an AMD card on linux i guess there's no winning combination | 03:40 |
| tjaalton | kde uses qt, not gtk | 04:36 |
| tjaalton | and use xterm or such ;) | 04:37 |
| ricotz | tseliot, jfyi pushing blob 346.59 tarballs to xorg-edgers | 07:37 |
| tseliot | ricotz: ok, I'll use your tarballs then | 07:37 |
| tseliot | so that you don't have to re-upload them | 07:37 |
| ricotz | tseliot, thanks, i hope it didnt already clash with your work | 07:37 |
| tseliot | ricotz: no problem, I'll delete mine and download yours. I'm still testing the packages | 07:38 |

| tjaalton | furkan: you'll get your dpms back in the next vivid kernel update | 20:50 |
| tjaalton | oh it got tagged, 3.19.0-13.13 | 20:50 |
| furkan | tjaalton: ah, great news, thanks :D | 21:37 |
| furkan | i hope it continues to work after suspend/resume as well! | 21:38 |
| furkan | and.. i've been playing around with kde (i installed the kubuntu-desktop package) | 21:39 |
| furkan | i'm finding it really strange that kde doesn't crash after changing my display settings, but unity does | 21:39 |
| furkan | the display corruption happens in both, but kde recovers whereas unity doesn't | 21:40 |
| furkan | and the totally crazy thing about the display corruption is that it shows parts of the screen buffer from the previous boot | 21:40 |
| furkan | like first when i booted up into a kubuntu live usb, and changed the monitor configuration, when it was switching resolutions you could see portions of what i had open on my screen before rebooting | 21:41 |
| furkan | and likewise when i rebooted back into my ubuntu install, when changing resolutions i would see portions of the wallpaper from the kubuntu live cd | 21:42 |
| furkan | if it's on a fresh boot, i see white rectangles instead | 21:42 |
| furkan | so it's as if there are portions of old stuff that's left over in the VRAM | 21:43 |
| furkan | so if you shut down the PC, it gets cleared, but if you do a reboot, those contents are still in the VRAM and they get "leaked" | 21:44 |
| furkan | i'm sure that's an upstream issue, as it doesn't happen with fglrx | 21:44 |
| furkan | but somehow kde manages to handle the situation anyway | 21:45 |
| furkan | so that's why i installed kde, but i can't stand it, gonna nuke it now and go back to unity | 21:46 |
| furkan | tjaalton: i just added the kernel testing ppa and installed 3.19.0-13, and also did an apt-get upgrade and noticed that my libdrm* packages got upgraded... now dpms is back (even after suspend/resume) and my desktop no longer crashes after a resolution change... so i will close that bug | 22:31 |
| furkan | i still get the checkerboard corruption after suspend/resume... but, not the worst out of those bugs | 22:32 |
| furkan | tjaalton: never mind... resolution change causes a black screen (it used to show corruption, now just black) - it was only changing the screen's vertical position which no longer triggered screen corruption + crash | 22:43 |
