stellarium

Fonts and icons are not displayed in stellarium 
with my RS780 card and running the latest git kernel.
I have attached a screenshot showing the problem.
(Normally icons and text appears in the two bars
on the left and the button of the screen.) 

Here is a picture showing the uncorrupted interface:

Comment 1 Alex Deucher 2010-06-21 08:14:37 UTC
What components did you change?  Was it just the kernel?  Did you also upgrade mesa?  Please also attach your xorg log and dmesg.
Comment 2 Octoploid 2010-06-21 08:38:06 UTC
This is an older problem (~4-5 month) and when it first
happened, the problem could be solved by simply switching
to an older kernel.

Right now I'm using:
OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R600 (RS780 9614) 20090101  TCL DRI2
OpenGL version string: 2.0 Mesa 7.8.2
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.10

The same at my place with
OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R600 (RS780 9610) 20090101  TCL DRI2
OpenGL version string: 2.0 Mesa 7.9-devel
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.10

I spotted a note about font problems at the Stellarium forums, and was able to work around by adding

use_qpaintenginegl2 = false

to [main] in .stellarium/config.ini
Comment 6 Octoploid 2010-06-21 09:26:37 UTC
Thanks for the workaround. It fixes the problem here.
Comment 7 Michel Dänzer 2010-06-21 23:45:12 UTC
Most likely a Mesa driver issue.
Comment 8 Nicolas Kaiser 2011-02-14 13:03:02 UTC
Meanwhile, it also works for me without disabling "use_qpaintenginegl2".
