Fedora19 on a Gigabyte A-M68MT-S2PE motherboard. Fedora Settings : Details : Overview Memory: 7.6 GiB Processor: AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 840 Processor x 4 OS Type: 64-bit Graphics: Gallium 0.4 on NV4C Gnome: Version 3.8.4 Gnome-Bugzilla-ID: 706062 determined this to be a driver problem and suggested filing a bug against the nouveau driver https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706062 Thank you for your help Note: Icons are active (can be clicked) but are simply not displayed in the All Applications view (nor is the vertical scrollbar). Frequently Used view displays application icons properly, but have not tried using enough to get a scrollbar in that display.
Can you try a mesa containing this commit 3282697621241e646247b85327c50747416a766b Author: Ilia Mirkin <imirkin@alum.mit.edu> Date: Sun Sep 1 12:38:52 2013 -0400 nv30: find first unused texcoord rather than bailing if first is used This fixes shaders produced by supertuxkart. Cc: "9.2" <mesa-stable@lists.freedesktop.org> Signed-off-by: Ilia Mirkin <imirkin@alum.mit.edu> Which at the current stage is available only in the master branch in the mesa tree [1]. I'm expecting this commit to be part of 9.2.1 in due course [1] http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/
Thank you for your prompt reply, but I'm not competent to understand it. This is my first exposure to the term "mesa". I looked at the URL but am drawing a blank.
You would need to retrieve the code and rebuild mesa (note that fedora and other distributions split mesa into lots of separate packages) Upon rebuilding you can either create a RPM package (A) or use it from standalone location (B). A) With regards to rebuilding and installing a RPM, this article [1] will be of use, as well as the fedora irc channel. Note that you do not need to write/create a mesa.spec file, a simple copy of the current one used by fedora should work like a charm (remember to bump the version number). B) Whereas if you prefer to build and install mesa to a separate location our wiki has some instructions on how you can do that [2]. Note in this case may have to resolve build dependencies, and configure flags by checking with fedora's mesa.spec file.

The latest round of Fedora updates included the new mesa and my display problem is resolved. Thank you very much for your help.
