Actually, I'm getting other, similar mouse corruptions from time to time, though I've not narrowed down anything enough to figure out what causes it. X.Org X Server 1.5.3 Release Date: 5 November 2008 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.27-gentoo-r7 x86_64 Current Operating System: Linux naboo 2.6.27-gentoo-r8 #1 SMP Tue Mar 3 12:06:12 MST 2009 x86_64 Build Date: 08 February 2009 08:04:58AM DRM kernel module from the r6xx-r7xx tree as of 03032009, radeonhd X11 driver from master as of 02272009. Ugh AGP. Please attach your xorg log and config. you can disable UTS and DFS like so: Option "ExaNoDownloadFromScreen" Option "ExaNoUploadToScreen" You might also try forcing the bustype to PCIE to use the on-chip GART interface rather than AGP (i.e., return RHD_CARD_PCIE in rhdGetCardType()).

Either switching the kernel from 2.6.27 to 2.6.29 or to a more recent XServer version (from 2:1.4.2-11 to 2:1.5.99.902-1 in Debian) fixed that issue for me. I think the latter one is more likely. I just forgot to compile the drm and radeon module. So problem persists. I can confirm that using: Option "ExaNoDownloadFromScreen" solve this problem on my Radeon Mobility X1400 I add this: disabling download from screen solves the problem, but now I noticed that the system sometimes becomes unusable, freezing for 1 or 2 seconds during some operations (like changing the desktop background or during fade in/out of windows in compiz). Does this issue occur with the preferred ati driver (xf86-vide-ati)? If so, please move this to the Driver/Radeon component. Development of radeonhd has pretty much halted and development focus is on the ati driver. Please see http://www.x.org/wiki/radeonhd If the issue does not exist in the ati driver (or if there is no response to this message), this bug will be closed as WONTFIX unless someone contributes a patch.

Please close as WONTFIX. Not sure if the problem still exists with the radeonhd driver but the xf86-video-ati doesn't show the corruption. |

Created attachment 23533 [details] Some pictures of mouse cursors Hi, after the DFS and UTS hooks were enabled I experienced corruption. The corruption affects the mouse cursor, sometimes window decorations, nearly always the buttons in firefox, sometimes the desktop background, sometimes launchers in the gnome-panel and other things. Attached are screenshots that demonstrate how the corruption looks. The corruption of the mouse cursor is not visible on screenshots so I took them with a digital camera. The stripes appear only on the right of the cursor and it changes if I move the cursor into another text input box. The corruptions are not very serious. I didn't complained until yet because I was busy and I hoped that the problem gets fixed. Disabling the UTS hook fixes the corruptions. Unfortunately the whole desktop is then very unresponsive. The first bad commit was f1b9c19683090272a29a3e4c9e2c054b4a32b47c (R6xx/R7xx EXA: add accelerated UTS/DFS hooks) Some information about my system: X.Org X Server 1.5.99.902 (1.6.0 RC 2) radeonhd commit 9c8ab2dfbe61120298c4b46a2b49245c6779dbc2 drm commit 189cd825a8a2cc2c0a28023589a5f18a4122410b 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon HD 3870 (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: PC Partner Limited Device e620 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 25 Memory at c0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] Memory at ff1f0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] I/O ports at b000 [size=256] Expansion ROM at ff1c0000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 3 Capabilities: [58] Express Legacy Endpoint, MSI 00 Capabilities: [a0] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable- Capabilities: [100] Vendor Specific Information <?> Kernel driver in use: radeon Kernel modules: fglrx Any other things I can provide?
