Kernel log

Dear Developer,

I went from a kernel linux-image-3.2.0-4-686-pae to kernel
linux-image-3.9-1-686-pae (on Debian testing/Jessie). Since the X display is shifted upwards and reveals a piece of the linux console at the bottom of screen.

I can not attach a screenshot, because utility capture buffer X server
but are not offset on the screen.

Regards,

Comment 1 Patrik Jakobsson 2013-06-27 20:12:30 UTC
Hi Stéphane,
Thanks for reporting this bug. Could you try using the modesetting driver instead of fbdev.

Also, I think this is solved by the following patch:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=61bb3fea44b71dd9935227920b036fdb96936f4d

So if you could try 3.10-rc7 while still using fbdev and report back, that would be great.
