Created attachment 111922 [details] kernel log I am seeing the text in menus not rendered at all in LibreOffice and only in LibreOffice. Text not in menus works. If I take a screenshot the menus are in the screenshot as they should be. This is a regression between kernel 3.17.0 and 3.18
I see that you're booting with nouveau.noaccel=1 -- this disables all acceleration. However xf86-video-nouveau should still get used in that case; perhaps there's an issue in how the noaccel fallbacks are set up. Can you pastebin the xorg log? As an aside, why are you disabling acceleration? What happens if you remove noaccel=1?
If I boot without noaccel=1 the system locks up within seconds after logging in.

I just noticed that you said that this is a regression from 3.17 to 3.18 -- that is _very_ surprising, as acceleration is not being used and it's all just software rendering. Perhaps there's more going on here... Could you try doing a bisect? You can limit it to drivers/gpu/drm to speed things up.

I am starting a bisection.

I am starting a bisection. I need to retract this. The bug is triggered by the lack of desktop effects. If I activate desktop effects in KDE it starts working again.
Sounds like a bug in something unrelated to nouveau... with nouveau.noaccel=1 neither the ddx nor user programs are using nvidia gpu hw for acceleration.
