Description Bret Towe 2011-03-01 09:50:19 UTC
stumbled across a issue with colortiling with an x300 card I have
and saw the issue with an x1300 card I had borrowed but didn't
know the problem at the time
with it enabled some weird blocking distortion occurs
when certain apps are loaded the 2 that seem to trigger it
are gnucash when the register is displayed
and openoffice (version 3.2.1 is what i have)
kernel I'm running is 2.6.38-rc6 on debian squeeze

I did notice afterwards the following in dmesg
wasn't watching it as I was testing options but time wise
is probably close to around then

Let me know what else is needed

This is probably a duplicate of bug 33929.  You might try the xserver patch there.  As for the CS rejections, it would be great if you could track down what app or event causes them.

looks like openoffice is but not till a spreadsheet is opened
doesn't look like a text document causes the issue

I'll note for this that I do have git of cairo and pixman installed
and cairo is being told to use the gl backend if it matters any

I haven't tested the exa patch yet but I turned on colortiling and tried
running some benchmarks including openarena with it and it worked for 10 seconds or so
then the computer froze and rebooted itself
it had been running the same benchmark set fine with it off

I assume that exa patch wouldn't effect this issue in the least?
should I file another bug on this as it might be mesa related instead?

Mass closure: This bug has been untouched for more than six years, and is not
obviously still valid. Please reopen this bug or file a new report if you continue to experience issues with current releases.
