Corrupted window area in a Gtk+2 app (Pidgin), after a floating "hover notification" box has disappeared, the area under it is corrupted.

Corrupted pixmaps (cached, I suppose) all around in Gtk+2 at least, and increasingly in Firefox (latest beta 22.0). Gtk+ corruptions seemed to appear after upgrading to latest GIT version of the Intel driver. Kernel upgrade from 3.8.13 -> 3.9.3 made no apparent difference.

Occasional corruptions in Firefox have been around for quite a while (and reported separately), so that's probably another bug entirely.

Matti, I thought we had closed your ff corruption bugs?
Comment 4 Matti Hämäläinen 2013-05-21 21:57:44 UTC
Well, at some point were rather rare and extremely difficult to reproduce, but now they seem to have made a comeback. Reproducability is still a question mark, but they occur every once in a while.
Comment 5 Matti Hämäläinen 2013-05-21 22:08:18 UTC
Tried reverting that changeset, no effect for the Gtk+ corruption depicted in the screenshots at least -- still occurs.

The big scary change would be the introduction of cow support. To test, you can disable it with:

Masked by --enable-userptr. Will you stop running on such ancient kernels :-p

Example of corruption

I'm getting this/similar bug on Fedora 20 XFCE

[     9.229] (II) LoadModule: "intel"
[     9.229] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so
[     9.230] (II) Module intel: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
[     9.230]    compiled for 1.14.4, module version = 2.21.15
[     9.230]    Module class: X.Org Video Driver
[     9.230]    ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 14.1

Should I open a new bug?
Comment 11 Chris Wilson 2014-01-09 10:00:14 UTC
Before you do, you will want to try a much later driver.
Comment 12 Konstantin Svist 2014-01-10 01:49:19 UTC
Upgraded to git, don't see the problem so far
