(See https://launchpad.net/products/xserver-xorg-driver-ati/+bug/38198 - it might be related) When a composite operation with a power-of-2 drawable as source gets executed, sometimes the result is garbled. This seems to depend on the size of the destination and the source. i was able to verify this with {4,8}x{128,256,512} sources on a destination that was > 480 pixels wide and as high as the source on a R100 card.
Created attachment 6826 [details] [review] workaround When applying this patch the problem goes away. The patch is against current Debian sid sources.
Created attachment 6827 [details] test This is a test to reproduce the problem. Enlarge the window to full size to see it. Cairo creates a temporary 8xHEIGHT (256 in this case) pixmap for the pattern and then blits it to the screen.
