 Posted: Wed Jul 10, 2013 10:07 pm Post subject: Strange graphic bug + strange Xorg warning |
 |
|
I have a strange problem with any DE : when I move a window, it's like tearing, like if the borders were but like if there was something like broken anti-aliasing...And scrolling on a page with text (like here on firefox) make the text like liquid...Very hard to describe.
I tried the two 319 nvidia drivers but still have the same problem.Also tried thing about adding anti-aliasing to my DE and using eselect fontconfig to activate 10-autohint.conf but it didn't help...
Currently using kernel-3.8.13
In my Xorg.0.log, there is this strange warning :
| Quote: | | (WW) Unresolved symbol: fbGetGCPrivateKey |
Is that only due to the fact I don't use a framebuffer (like uvesafb), or is it something else ?
I had the same kernel/drivers when I was on 32 bit gentoo (now I'm on a 64 bit one) but didn't have that problem
Here is the complete Xorg log : http://bpaste.net/show/113539/

Switched to nvidia-drivers 325.08, problem is still there.
For a better description of the problem : when I move a window, even slowly, if this is the border of a window :

As a wild guess:
| Code: | | nvidia-settings -a AllowFlipping=0 |
On the PCs I've used, Nvidia's flipping is unstable - can hang xorg - I'm surprised it's on by default.
Another thing to try is compton to force vsync on. E.g.:
| Code: | | nice -n -1 /usr/bin/compton --backend glx --vsync opengl-swc --unredir-if-possible --glx-swap-method exchange -m 0.94 --inactive-dim 0.09 |

That retuns me (with newer version : 0_pre20121114) :
| Code: | compton: unrecognized option '--backend'
compton (development version) |
Same result with older version : 0_pre20120330 |

that actually correct that thing with broken borders of windows when moving them ! That also remove the green borders bug when scrolling when scrolling on a page with a flash video ! Also, the text on pages stop flickering when scrolling down/up ! what a nice program ! but everything is kind of blue and gamma changed... |
